I’m being featured on CBS/WCCO today 🎉


Hey Reader!

Just a quick (and exciting!) heads up —
CBS/WCCO is featuring me today at 4PM CST in a special segment on online dating photography and how powerful portraits can shift your confidence, your mindset, and the matches you're attracting.

They’ll be filming behind-the-scenes footage of a real client session this morning, plus an interview with me and my incredible client, Alecia.

📍If you're in Minnesota, tune in at 4PM CST on WCCO (CBS) to catch it!

And yes — I’ll send out a replay link later for anyone who wants to watch but can’t tune in. :)

This has been such an affirming (and slightly surreal) experience. If you’ve ever wondered what these sessions really look like, or why so many clients say they leave feeling different than when they arrived — I’d love for you to see it.

Gratefully,

You probably know me as a photographer (and if we’ve worked together — hi again 👋).But lately, something really interesting has been happening behind the scenes in my business.It started when one of my clients told me they’d found me through ChatGPT.That moment completely changed how I think about visibility — and how people are finding photographers, creatives, and small businesses now. They’d typed: “Find a senior photographer in Minnesota who creates natural, un-posed, emotional images.”...

Hey Reader! If you had told me years ago that a dating app swipe would lead me here, I would have laughed. Back then, I was a single mom, a little guarded, and a lot unsure if love was still in the cards for me. But then came René — a kind, funny, Deaf man whose presence felt like home from day one. Coffee dates turned into blended-family chaos, a wedding pivot, and now… a place in the Quarterfinals of America’s Favorite Couple 2025. We started this competition as just one of over 10,000...
