Hi, I’m Monica,
I’m a photographer, videographer, and embodied creative who works with visionary leaders and artists creating work that is meant to be felt as much as seen.
For over 19 years, I’ve supported people who don’t want surface-level visuals, they want imagery that feels like them, communicates depth, and stands the test of time.
I know how to translate who you are, how your work moves through people, and what it feels like to be in your presence.
My work lives at the intersection of:
Cinematic storytelling that prioritizes emotional arc
Embodiment and nervous system awareness
Deep listening and attunement
Strategic brand thinking, rooted in longevity
Working with me means you’re fully supported, start to finish. From creative brainstorming to final delivery, I’m there with you, guiding, refining, and ensuring every detail aligns with your vision.
My work is about creating a visual legacy that amplifies your impact.
I believe in:
Quality Over Quantity: Every image and video is curated with care. I personally hand-edit each piece to ensure it meets the highest standard. No rushed AI edits, no outsourcing. Just artistry, intention, and attention to detail.
Deeply Intentional Craftsmanship: In a world that prioritizes speed, I prioritize depth. Every session is thoughtfully planned, creatively guided, and designed to produce visuals that last.
Embodied Storytelling : Movement is a powerful part of my work (and what sets me apart). I use somatic movement techniques to help you feel at home in front of the lens.
The Power of Presence: Your first impression isn’t your logo, fonts, or colour: it’s YOU. I capture your essence in a way that resonates, magnetizes, and expands your reach.
Jaw-dropping Results: After almost 20 years behind the lens, I know what moves people (to join your world, to be in your programs, to buy your offers).

My values:
I am a proud woman of color and I live my values every day in my business.
My work is rooted in respect, equity, and inclusion. I am committed to working with women, femmes, non-binary, transgender, and gender-nonconforming individuals across Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, and worldwide.
A portion of funds from every session is donated to mutual aid efforts supporting Black, non-binary, and transgender individuals and organizations.
