nominate now

Some small business owners spend their lives showing up for everyone else.

For their clients, their community, and the people they serve—often without ever being the ones who get seen in return.

This is a way to turn the focus back onto them.

The Brand Story Mini Session is a focused creative experience designed to help one small business owner be seen, supported, and celebrated through
storytelling photography.

If you know someone who:

  • is always showing up for their clients, community, or cause

  • is passionate about what they do—but rarely pauses for themselves

  • has a meaningful story that deserves to be seen

  • pours into others, but struggles to prioritize their own visibility
