Story-driven commercial photography and creative direction

Based in Minneapolis, MN

I’m Megan — a commercial photographer and art director based in the Twin Cities, helping brands and creative teams capture visuals that are authentic, polished, and ready to use. My work spans food and beverage, restaurants, corporate lifestyle, and sustainability-focused projects—bringing your story to life in a way that connects with your audience.

I work with clients who want images that:
- Look professional and compelling, whether staged or captured in the moment
- Tell a story that feels authentic and purposeful
- Highlight products, services, and story-driven work

With over 15 years of experience across photography, advertising, and social media, I bring technical skill, an eye for detail, and make the process efficient and collaborative, delivering visuals that elevate your brand without unnecessary fluff.

For clients who want to get the most out of their content, I also offer creative direction— light strategy and pre-production planning so your visuals are optimized for websites, marketing materials, and social media. This ensures your content is not just beautiful, but purposeful and ready to make an impact.

I partner with teams who value authenticity, storytelling, and high-quality content—helping your brand engage your audience and make a lasting impression.







Hey there.

“Initially, I just needed a photographer to take some photos for my upcoming skincare website. I found her on Facebook, and her pictures blew me away. I am very busy, and don't have a lot of time to prepare for things like outfits, props, ideas, etc. She guided me through everything and organized it for me. Now, I realize the reason her work is so amazing is because she pays attention to every single detail, every step of the way. She even reminded me to drink water, and bring snacks!! I have never worked with a photographer who went that far above and beyond to make sure that my branding was exactly what I wanted and even more than I expected."

"I did a shoot with Megan with the intention of using the photos to promote my EP release. I loved the final photos so much that I ended up using one of them for the album artwork in addition to promotional materials. Megan was extremely professional. She made me feel totally at ease during our shoot. She took the ideas I had and created a final product more beautiful than I could have imagined. I highly recommend this gem and I can't wait to work with her again!"

"Megan is fantastic with my brand photography! I was missing out on my social media and website presence without personal photos of services I offer and Megan really stepped up to help me. She is so laid back and professional to work with and I don’t feel nervous or intimidated when I have to do a shoot. I love getting to review the albums before editing. All of the photos are so good that it's hard to choose. I highly recommend Megan — 100% my favorite."

"Megan did an amazing job for a recent branding photo shoot for my business. You never really know how photos are going to turn out of you (trying to model and look professional while having no experience) but they were AMAZING! The quality of her work and skill was so evident after seeing the unedited preview gallery. She exceeded what I was envisioning and got back to me with all of the photos super quickly. Thank you so much Megan!!!"

"Megan really took the time to get to know my style and vision before creating a plan for our photo shoot. She gave me such good direction. She was able to pivot in the moment to take a different angle at an idea. I will definitely hire her again!"
