BEHIND
the LENS
I'm elle: an infp, ENNEAGRAM 3, CAPRICORN, former graphic designer, mom of three.
In November 2023, I bought my first full-frame camera and filed for an LLC—armed with little more than instinct and a quiet fire I couldn’t ignore. What began as a leap of faith quickly became a path that felt unmistakably right.

THE
CATALYST
I’ve always been an artist at heart. Photography called to me for years, quietly but persistently—but like many women, I let the risks and timing hold me back.
Eight months into life as a stay-at-home mother, I was burning out quick. Confronted with the prospect of turning 40, I gave myself permission to begin. A birthday gift that wasn’t about reinvention—but reclamation.
After years spent behind the scenes helping others shape their brands, I stepped into the frame to tell my own story—and everything shifted. Now, it’s my honor to help other women do the same.
THE
EYE
With decades of training in fine art and design, I bring more than technical skill—I bring an editorial eye, a brand-savvy lens, and an instinct for what moves people.
I'm the friend you can ask "should I wear this or this" and I'll give you a definitive answer and back it up with reasons.
My last full-time job was as a senior graphic designer turned media department manager at a boutique real estate brokerage based in DC, MD, & VA, helping hundreds of individuals and teams to develop and market their brands.
THE
WORK
Every session is designed to help you show up fully—confident, grounded, and unmistakably yourself.
It's never just a photo. It’s legacy imagery, emotional branding, and visual storytelling with intention.
Because when your audience says, “You look like you were featured in a magazine,” it’s not just a compliment—it’s a strategic imprint. A visual that lingers in their memory, reinforcing your authority long after the scroll.
This is presence that converts. Art that positions. Imagery that means business.
THE
SHIFT
My clients don’t just leave with images—they leave with clarity. Confidence. A visual story that aligns with the future they’re walking into.
Whether you’re an individual honoring a milestone or an entrepreneur ready to lead with presence, this is where transformation becomes visual.
Let’s create the next version of you—on purpose.

The EYP Aesthetic
1. Seeing beneath the surface.
Not just how you look—but who you are, and who you’re becoming. My trained eye captures the quiet power most people miss.
2. Turning presence into visual poetry.
Your energy, your evolution, your becoming—translated into imagery that feels like art and legacy in the same frame.
3. Creating a safe, sacred space to be seen.
Clients don’t just walk away with photos—they leave feeling witnessed, more themselves, and more confident in how they show up.
