fine art portraiture
Being photographed can feel intimidating, especially when the photos are meant to represent who you are and what you do.
I get it.
I’m Olivia, a portrait and brand photographer who cares about the full picture. Not just how you look, but how you think, how you work, and how you want people to feel when they see your images.
This isn’t about showing up and hoping for the best or walking away with a set of standard, expected photos. It’s a collaborative process where we shape a vision together. From concept to direction to the smallest details, every choice is intentional and built around you.
I guide you through it all, so you feel supported, confident, and clear every step of the way, while still creating space for your personality and perspective to lead.
My mission is to create editorial, fine art imagery that goes beyond documentation, capturing personality, style, and the story behind every person and brand I photograph in a way that feels elevated, honest, and distinctly yours.

Meet Olivia
Olivia is a portrait photographer, artist, and creative marketer based in Grand Rapids, MI. She started her LLC nearly a decade ago and has since had the joy of photographing a wide range of clients, from personal portraits to commercial product work, always with a focus on storytelling and authenticity.
She graduated from Western Michigan University with a BFA in Photography, where she explored the fine art side of image-making and developed her senior thesis project, Unidentified, a series of abstract, intentionally imperfect portraits that invite viewers into something deeper and more emotional.
Alongside her photography career, Olivia built a path in digital marketing and creative direction. She has worked both agency side and in-house, creating content, leading campaigns, and shaping brand storytelling. Her background in art and visual strategy now informs every project she touches, whether she is behind the camera or directing creative work for brands.
Today, Olivia blends these worlds: photography, creative direction, and content strategy. She spends her days running her photo business, contributing to digital marketing projects, and collaborating with teams to bring thoughtful, visually driven ideas to life.
Outside of work, she is trying to beat her reading goal and always finding a new craft to dive into.
