CASS HERE

Outdoor enthusiast, mediocre surfer, novice mountain biker, will "ooh and ahh" many times, and I truly love building brands and creating feelings.

I am a photographer and designer, with experience that spans across brand identity, art direction, and photography. I have collaborated with clients in diverse sectors, including home goods, skincare, and fashion of varying company sizes and I truly love what I do.

Background
Currently on contract with Nature, and Authentic Audience.

I have worked both freelance + in-house for graphic design, packaging design, photography, and art direction for studios and brands ranging from fashion and outdoor brands to CPG brands. I am a Creative Generalist who has focused on multiple tools of the trade and loves team building + collaboration.

EXCITED TO WORK TOGETHER?
Two things matter most to me:
1. That you love what we create together.

2. That the whole team feels supported, heard, excited, and there's a sense of ease on set.

I've been told I have a calm vibe on shoot days (my favorite compliment), which allows space for more creativity, play, and overall an experience we all want more of.

A lot of this comes down to pre-production (and my Virgo tendencies). AKA clear art direction + moodboard, a realistic shotlist (I'm speaking to you, you dreamers), plan a's + b's especially if we're shooting with natural light, and the right people for each role.
