From powerful portraits to magnetic brands, here’s how I became more than just “your photographer.”

Former educator, natural encourager, and the heart behind Your Brand Compass

Hi, I'm Jen

I teach women entrepreneurs who are building authority through a personal brand, how to create a recognizable and magnetic presence... online and in person.

A Few Things About Me

Your Brand Compass was born from the same journey I now guide others through, navigating purpose, passion, and pivots with courage, creativity, and faith. I’ve learned that branding isn’t just about logos or photos. It’s about anchoring your message in something that feels like you and speaks straight to the hearts of those you’re led to serve.

That realization was my turning point and the beginning of a much deeper calling. One that blends strategy with storytelling, visuals with vision, and gives women like you the tools to show up fully and freely in your business.

How I Got Here

You don’t have to sacrifice who you are to grow your business.

You just need a brand that reflects the heart behind it.

I blend my love for teaching, storytelling, and strategy to make the branding process warm, welcoming, and (yes) even fun. Around here, there’s space for both depth and laughter. For business systems that honor your mission and fuels your future. For branding that makes your message not just seen, but felt.

Teaching • Storytelling • Strategy • Teaching • Storytelling • Strategy •

God is the CEO of my life and business, which means i call on his divine guidance in all that I do

I’m husband-obsessed (because I dreamed of this man my entire life and turns out, he exists,) a bonus mom to four beautifully complex humans, Grand-mimi to one, and a fur mama to one grouchy dog (because the poor guy is on borrowed time) and Two cats (one we chose, one chose us). Side note: if it’s fluffy, I’m probably emotionally attached.

I’m a national park connoisseur, sunset chaser, firm believer that mountains > beach, and the undisputed road trip queen.

My soul comes alive outdoors… preferably in a hammock swing with a journal, on our front porch, hiking new terrain, or cuddling something fluffy.

And once a teacher, always a teacher (for 12 whole years!) which means I have a great pull inside me to teach you all I know in the time we have together (some on the agenda, and most not.) prepare yourself for the path to clarity.  

What it’s like to work with me

Clients say it’s like working with your best friend and business coach rolled into one.

Warm but no-nonsense. Intentional, funny, grounding, and always cheering you on. Think of me like your favorite roadtrip buddy.

Values I build my work on:

Service before sales

I lead with your needs, not my pitch.

Strategy rooted in intention

focused on the client you are most meant to serve but minus the slimy marketing manipulation tactics wildly overused 

Sustainable Practices

you were never meant to trade the joys of life for running your business 24/7... even though you love it that much!
