HOW DOES IT WORK?

How I am different: 

I have streamlined the content creation process into a production that I can do entirely on my own. 

As a model, I have seen a gap in the commercial advertisement industry that leaves smaller and local businesses unable to access the benefits of having a professional model in their content. 

As the daughter of a small business owner, I saw how content creation often fell to the bottom of the list when the daily responsibilities of running a business were more urgent and demanding of my mom's energy. While she saw this gap, there was no room in the budget to hire an in-house social media manager or content creator. 

As a young adult when 2020 hit, I saw how small businesses struggled more than large corporations to stay open, shift their business online, and adapt to changing restrictions. 

I want to bridge this gap for you by modeling & creating content for you as an external content creator. 

I am creating images for small businesses entirely on my own as I have streamlined the content creation process into a production that I can do entirely on my own. I work with remotes, tripods, and even a primitive robot that I built and designed myself to make this happen.

About me:

Modeling:

This is where I have the most experience. I am a freelance, professional model in Denver, CO. I have walked both runway shows and done print media. This spring 2022 I was honored to walk at Denver Fashion Week for Tara Hari Couture.

Photography:

Nowadays the clarity and quality of images shot on iPhones is unprecedented. The average viewer can hardly tell the difference between a professional photo and well-lit, well-planned photo on an iPhone. I leverage the power of this already powerful camera in my back pocket to create high-quality images that will enhance your social media or website. This saves both time changing lenses and money on the end of the photographer because my equipment costs are minimal. 

I have a system of remote camera controls, lighting, tripods and other useful tools that I can use to model for my own photos and videos. This is actually how I film all of my YouTube videos. 

Styling: 

I have spent years in visual merchandising, styling myself for my own shoots with photographers, and also doing social media for my mom's business growing up. I bring this experience to the table to help you come up with creative ways to show your business. 

How all this benefits you:

I can provide you with professional images for your social media and website. These images will work fantastically for phones and tablets, which is how people interact with businesses more and more.

Small and local businesses can benefit hugely from having a professional and curated online presence -- all we need to do is remember 2020 and lockdowns in order to be reminded of this. Social media and your website are your online storefront. They are your store window displays. They are the first thing someone sees when they google your business. 

Just like a disorganized, dirty storefront leaves a first impression, so do the images that the customer or client first sees when visiting your business online. Let’s work together to get you some great images, so that you can make a great first impression online!!
