With 5+ years in business and over 300 happy clients, I’ve learned how to produce images that feel personal, polished, and packed with personality.
My days are split between photographing incredible small businesses and recharging through pottery classes, kitchen experiments, and loud pop-punk concerts. I’m a big believer that creativity thrives when we let ourselves play — and I bring that energy to every session.
If you’re ready for images that finally reflect the brand you’ve built… you can stop looking, you’ve found your photographer!

“I met Marisa online through Instagram when I was looking for my first brand shoot as an artist. I had been putting off this step because I was nervous and uncomfortable in front of the camera. But, Marisa worked patiently with me to get a ton of beautiful shots that I can use in all of my marketing."
She’s thoughtful, professional, talented, and kind.

“Not only did she make the shoot really fun and comfortable, it’s the first time I really loved professional photos of myself! The photos are warm and colorful, the perfect extension of my overall business and brand.”
Marisa is a miracle worker!

“I sent her a Pinterest board of what I was wanting for my brand and she turned it into reality. Every pose was strategic and included my brand colors. I thought I had a good idea of where I wanted my new photos, but she showed me places on my website to include photos that I wouldn’t have thought of! Couldn’t be happier with my photos and with Marisa’s professionalism.”
Marisa was fantastic!
