Hi, i’m happy you’re here.
If you’re looking for thoughtful visuals—whether through photography, content creation, or retail styling—you’re in the right place.
With a background in visual merchandising and retail styling, I’ve spent years curating beautiful spaces, setting up eye-catching displays, and making products stand out. That passion for storytelling through visuals has naturally led me to product photography and content creation, helping brands showcase their products in a way that feels intentional, engaging and perfectly tailored for social media, email marketing, and website use.
In addition to photography and content creation, I also offer freelance merchandising services, helping businesses with retail styling, seasonal displays, and product presentation to create an inviting and visually compelling in-store experience.

Visual Merchandising
With years of experience in visual merchandising and retail styling, I help businesses create inviting, beautifully curated spaces that enhance the shopping experience and showcase products in the best light. From seasonal displays and product styling to full-scale visual refreshes, I bring a thoughtful, creative approach to every project. Whether you're a boutique, retail brand, or pop-up shop looking for seasonal merchandising, cohesive styling, or strategic product placement, I’d love to help.
Content Creation
If you’re a brand looking to collaborate or need a creative for brand and influencer campaigns, you’re in the right place. I specialize in conceptualizing, styling, shooting, and editing to bring your brand’s vision to life. With a knack for creating captivating, dream-like spaces, especially within the bath space, I craft engaging short-form videos and thoughtfully styled photography that feel organic, authentic, and uniquely personal. My goal is to seamlessly convey your brand’s message in a way that resonates with your audience.
