Do you ever hit the end of your day and think, "what did I even do today?"
Hi! Me too! You are definitely not alone my friend. Lucky for you, I have found a solution.
My name is Megan, and I’m dedicated to giving moms creative tools to help them cultivate a happy home and spend more meaningful time with their people.
I’m fueled by long walks with the dog, a laid back attitude, a little hermitting, and soaking up the good stuff! (Plus a few healthy doses of espresso every morning.)
Let me show you how to DIY your way into a happy, creative home. Because we all want to enjoy the life in font of us, right?
What I'm Here for
Listen, I can’t do it all, though I wish I could! I focus on what I can uniquely give to you, and that’s all about helping inspire moms to get making and spend more time with loved ones.
Here is what I currently offer the world.
DIY
My blog is full of DIY projects that will help you be a literal “homemaker” and cultivate more joy in your home. You’ll find affordable, beginner-friendly projects here.
Art Education
Looking for creative things to do with your littles? Read posts from a certified art educator (oh hay!) and get inspired to help your little ones unleash their inner Picasso!
Personal
You’ll also find a sprinkling of my personal life as a military spouse, small business owner, and mom as it relates to my mission: giving other moms creative tools to connect with their family!
Photography
Looking for inspiration, for help, or an actual photographer? I have a BFA in Photography and LOVE to help moms with photography!

Brand Photography
I work with fellow mompreuners around the world who need product photos for their business so they can have more time doing what they love!
Tired of spending hours taking your own product photos?
A remote branding session is for you.
That's me there, with my professional camera and studio lighting equipment, crafting beautiful brand photos for another creative, entrepreneurial mom.
Notice that other mom is nowhere in sight. She’s probably grinding away at the parts of her business she actually enjoys, or spending time with her family, instead of trying to figure out how to take her own photos.
It’s time to nail your message and let me craft images that help you speak it to the world.
You can read about the three simple steps our brand photo packages include below.
1
Fill out a questionnaire
A simple walk-through questionnaire that tells me about your brand, product, and specific needs.
2
Ship me your products
Send me your products and I will plan the entire photo session, including hiring models and gathering supplies!
3
Kick back and Relax
Focus on the parts of your business you actually enjoy while I craft your images!
MY happy PEOPLE
I've helped hundreds of moms add more joy and creativity to their lives!
Whether you need someone to encourage you to try a DIY, give your instructions on how to do art with your children, or hold your hand through taking photographs, I am your girl.

Megan was so patient, helpful, and encouraging during our call. I learned how to change the settings in my camera to let in/out light, place the items correctly, and how to test for light in a photo. Afterward, she wrote a booklet for me to be able to reference when shooting my own photos without her.
