Your business has a story.

Let’s make it visible.

I photograph the people, places, details and moments that make a business what it is. Sometimes that story lives in a single frame. Sometimes it needs movement, voices and sound.

Sometimes the story is obvious. Sometimes we find it together. Through conversation, interviews and a little digging, we figure out what matters, what makes your business yours and what’s worth showing.

Then we build the photographs and films around that.

What a Business Story gives you

One business.
One story.
Built to be used.

Not just a folder of photographs.

A Business Story gives you photography and motion built around the people, work, place and personality that make the business yours.

01 · What we create

Photo

A versatile library of finished images with a clear point of view.

02 · What we create

Motion

A short story-driven film, social clips, or both when movement helps tell it better.

03 · How I help

Direction

Before we make anything, we figure out what’s worth saying. Sometimes you already know. Sometimes it comes out in conversation. We help find the thread and build the shoot around it.

04 · Where it goes

Use

We plan for the website, social, press and campaigns where the work needs to live.

How it works
Discover

We find the story worth telling and what the work needs to accomplish.

Plan

We shape the creative direction, production, and useful deliverables.

Make

Photo and motion are captured together with room for real moments.

Use

You receive a connected visual library ready for the places it needs to live.

Who this is for

For what your business is becoming. And the people taking it there.

01

You’re changing.

A new location, direction, leader, identity or period of growth means the old visuals no longer represent the business.

02

Your people are the story.

People should see more than what you sell. They should feel the personality, skill and care behind the work.

03

You’re ready to show up differently.

The business is strong. Your website, photography and social presence should communicate that quality.

Does one of these feel familiar?

Your business has a story. Let’s make it visible.

You don’t need a finished idea. Tell me about the business, what people should understand about it, and where the work needs to show up.

A short inquiry. No polished brief required.

The Walden Salon

The Walden is an expressive, welcoming Nashville salon built around the people inside it. I created environmental photography, portraits and motion to show not only the space and the work, but what it feels like to walk through the door.

Business Stories · Photo + Motion

Your business isn’t standing still. Your story shouldn’t either.

Maybe you’ve grown. The team has changed. The work has changed. Or the way you’re presenting the business just doesn’t feel like you anymore.

That’s usually a good time to make something new.

Business Stories begin at $2,500.

Final scope depends on the story, photography and motion needs, locations, and deliverables.

No hard sell. Start with a short conversation about your business and whether this project makes sense.

Start the conversation

Tell me about your business.

You don’t need a brief or a finished concept. Give me the beginning of the story and we’ll figure out what is worth making.

I take on a limited number of Business Stories at a time.

No hard sell. Your inquiry will be sent directly to Jeff.
