Who I am

Mother, Sister, Friend, Daughter
Storyteller, Love-Lover, Creative

As a devoted single mom, you'll hear me gushing over my daughter or if we're on a call I'm sure you'll hear her wanting to say hello! My family is extremely important to me and we try to spend as much time together as we can. 

I find myself making meaningful connections with each client, often feeling like friends after session. Capturing bonds and genuine love is my #1 goal, every time. I promise to represent your relationship in the best light possible.

BACKGROUND

I started in Digital Art and Design in 2010, and it clicked right away. I got into photography, took AP Fine Art classes, and began entering design competitions - always looking for ways to push my work further.

I graduated from Full Sail University in 2017 with a Bachelor’s degree in Digital Art and Design, and went straight into a professional role as a graphic designer in the healthcare space. There, I worked across branding, photography, digital and print - building everything from new facility identities to marketing campaigns and content systems.

In 2019, I launched my LLC and went all in on freelance.
 

By 2021, I was back in Fort Myers, focusing more heavily on photography and design. Being a mom has shaped how I approach my work - especially with families. I understand the pace, the chaos, and the moments that matter, and I know how to capture them without forcing anything.

In 2022, I became Creative Director at WooBamboo!, which brought me back into a collaborative, fast-moving creative environment.

In 2024, I stepped into my current role as Communications Specialist at Canterbury School, where I handle everything from content creation and video to web and written communications. It’s a mix of strategy and creativity - and it keeps me on my toes in the best way.

At the core of everything I do is simple:
I like making things that feel real - whether that’s a brand, a photo, or a moment.

 

And if you’re here, thanks for supporting small business. It matters more than you probably realize.

What does

        WORKING             WITH ME

  look like?

"Ellie has been working with me since 12/2019 and has been an extraordinary professional. It has been an honor to work with someone of her caliber. She is deliberate with her marketing tactics and implements great attention to every detail... She's my top recommended freelancer."

 

"Ellie went above and beyond. I had very little idea for what I wanted my brand to look like but she totally understood my messaging and came up with something perfect."

"I absolutely loved my pictures with Ellie, she is truly amazing!!! She helped me with everything from picking a location, to outfits and poses during the shoot, and was very accommodating to anything that I wanted to do. More importantly, though, I love the pictures and editing - they came out better than I ever could’ve expected!! Thank you!!!!!"

"Ellie did my son’s senior pictures and did an amazing job. She really was able to capture his personality and actually got a natural smile out of him which is not easy to do. Absolutely love the pictures and highly recommend her for any photography needs you have!"
