Sage Collective is a Des Moines-based brand photographer specializing in inclusive and artistic imagery.
Our goal was to elevate her brand visibility, showcase her unique offerings, and attract more clients.
We did this by creating a memorable and versatile visual identity that showcases their unique style by incorporating gothic and modern typefaces with sharp symbolism and a bold color palette.
That’s why my sessions are more than just delivering high-quality images; I provide an unforgettable experience that prioritizes your comfort and confidence. My goal is to make you feel genuinely seen and understood. Through creative lighting, set design, and a touch of your personality, we’ll capture your brand in a way that feels like you.
My own journey of overcoming challenges fuels my passion for empowering others. You deserve the life you aspire to and the freedom to be yourself without fear or shame. This is a safe space to be you. Tired of feeling invisible? Let's ditch the boring photos and create visuals that showcase your brand's true personality. It's time to stop blending in and start standing out. Are you ready?
Growing up in poverty, a lot of things were out of reach, but that never stopped my creativity from flourishing. Photography became my escape, a way to express myself and navigate life's challenges. It was also a constant reminder that even when you feel like you don't quite fit in, there's magic in embracing what makes you unique.
Building my own business solidified this. The more I owned my brand and celebrated my individuality, the more I saw the power of genuine connection. Let's be honest, clients can tell when you aren’t being real. When you embrace your authenticity, your brand attracts your dream clients.
