I see you, Trail Blazer!
You have a story worth telling
whether you're building a brand or raising a family that thrives in motion and connection.
What you don't need is more noise, more trends, or more content thar feels disconnected from who you really are. You're looking for something real. Something that reflects your energy, values, and the way you show up in your life and/or in business.
Maybe you’ve tried keeping up with algorithms or settling for photos that look fine but don’t say anything. Maybe your messaging feels scattered, or your visuals don’t reflect the depth, heart, or intention behind what you do. That’s where I come in.
Brand Photography
We live in a visual world, and your brand imagery deserves to carry its weight. Thoughtful, intentional photos aren’t just “nice to have”, they’re a core part of your strategy and identity. Strong visuals give your audience a clear sense of who you are, what you value, and the experience they can expect when they choose to work with you.
Gone are the days of flat, forgettable headshots that blend into the background. Your audience wants authenticity, clarity, and a visual language that feels alive. My goal is to create imagery that reflects your personality and purpose, helping your brand stand out without relying on trends or templates.
Family Photography
Family photography with me isn’t about standing still and forcing smiles. It’s about movement, connection, and choosing an activity that feels like you. Whether that’s hiking your favorite trail, splashing at the shoreline, playing tag in an open field, or wandering through a place your family loves, we build your session around what brings out your natural energy.
I guide you just enough to help you feel comfortable, but the magic comes from the way you already laugh, play, and show up for one another. These sessions are meant to feel like a breath of fresh air, not a production. Simply time spent together doing something you love.
Content Writing
Marketing can feel like The Wild West: outlaw algorithms, outlandish trends, and constantly changing email funnel expectations. It moves fast and changes faster, leaving even the most seasoned business owner feeling dizzy.
I believe brands of all sizes need a seasoned content strategist who's been in the weeds, navigated the unknown, and wrestled more than a few marketing challenges with a steady hand. That’s where I come in!
For Adventure Seekers
and Go-Getters!
Around here, we aren't afraid to get up before the sun, tackle dramatic downpours, or buzz through blizzards. The best images are the ones we capture while you’re in your element. Maybe your session takes us out for a run on a wooded trail, in the gym to lift epic weights, to an orchard to pick apples, or to the skate park - or all the above! Wherever your story takes us, we will go, and we will go BIG!
The story you want to tell is ready to be told
Storytelling isn't just...
A polished Feed
It’s the meaning behind it all... the moments, the relationships, and the voice that pulls people in. Whether you’re a business shaping your brand or a family preserving a season of life, your story deserves to be told with intention. Thoughtful imagery and honest words work together to reveal who you are, what you value, and how you want to be remembered.
Let’s create work that feels true to you. Think photos that carry emotion, writing that builds connection, and storytelling that stands the test of time. When your visuals and your voice align, your message resonates and the people who matter most feel invited into your world.

what they're saying:
"Maxann has a great eye for photography. We did trail running photos for my sports nutrition business and the trail conditions were freezing and dumping snow during our shoot. She still got some killer shots in essentially white-out conditions. I highly recommend!"
— Hayden J. | Satiate Nutrition - UT
"Maxann is a talented photographer who is super encouraging and easy to work with. She was really positive, good at helping with posing and great at communicating during our shoot. I loved the photographs she captured, her style is beautiful. She got the photos back to me in a timely manner. I’d definitely work with her again! The Virginia area is lucky to have her on their doorstep."
— Georgina M. | Personal Brand Photography | Virginia
