Floral Direction for Editorial & Brand Work

Portland-based • Available for brand, editorial, and installation work

Sculptural, seasonal compositions designed to elevate imagery, environments, and brand experiences.

I partner with brands, photographers, and creative teams to design floral work that feels considered, artful, and aligned with your visual identity.

Each piece is created to support the story being told. Not compete with it.

What This Work Is

This is not traditional floral design.

It’s a blend of floral direction, set styling, and spatial composition.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into campaigns, environments, and brand moments.

The goal is simple: create something that feels visually distinct, intentional, and aligned with your brand.

Approach

My background is rooted in sculpture and installation art.

I approach florals as material, structure, and movement. Not just decoration.

The result is work that feels:

  • Intentional rather than excessive

  • Textural and dimensional

  • Grounded in seasonality and place

For brands, this creates imagery and environments that feel elevated, memorable, and difficult to replicate.
