Resources, Mentoring, Offerings and More

  • Welcome, Friend!

    If you’re here, it’s likely because you feel that pull, the one that tugs at your gut and whispers, “There’s more.” More to this craft than just snapping photos. More to this life than just ticking boxes. You’re craving depth, connection, and a touch of magic in your work. Same here.

    I’m Andrea, a fellow seeker, storyteller, and elopement photographer from Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula. Since 2011, I’ve been weaving narratives through images, and since my own elopement in 2013, I’ve specialized in nature-centric ceremonies that are as unique as the souls who choose them.

    This space? It’s for you. A collection of tools, insights, and offerings crafted to support your journey- not just as a photographer, but as an artist and human navigating this wild, beautiful world.

    Alignment Sessions

    Mentoring For Photographers

    Alignment Sessions are for photographers who want to dig deeper into their craft, their brand, and their unique way of showing up. Whether you’re curious about becoming an elopement photographer, developing a style that feels like you, connecting more intentionally with couples, or building a business rooted in storytelling and emotion, this is a space to ask anything. It’s part education, part creative reset, part “pick-my-brain.” I’ll share what I’ve learned over the years and help you find clarity around the things that matter most to you.

    1:1 // 1 hour

    Perfect if you’re feeling stuck, uncertain, or just need an outside perspective. Bring your questions and roadblocks, I’ll bring my intuition, experience, and straight-up honesty. You’ll leave with clarity, direction, and a renewed sense of purpose.

    $350

    1:1 // 2 hours

    This is a space to dig deeper into your business, mindset, creativity, or workflow. We’ll focus on what’s holding you back, what’s lighting you up, and what needs to shift. Custom, intuitive support, with zero judgment and lots of practical magic.

    $450

    In-person // 3 hours

    We’ll meet in my little corner of the Keweenaw (Houghton/Hancock/Calumet), share lunch (it’s on me!), and have an unhurried, heart-forward conversation about your work, your path, and where you’re headed next. Think cozy, connective, and super impactful.
