Memories as Art

02/22/2026

I haven’t been as active on this page lately… and there’s a reason for that. ❤️

Over the past year, my camera hasn’t just been capturing families — it’s been helping local businesses tell their stories too.

This behind-the-scenes reel was filmed at Red Barn Winery, where I handled the photography and content creation through my marketing company, PTBA Business Services.

Memories as Art will always be about emotion and storytelling.
PTBA is simply that same creativity — applied to brands.

If you’re a small business owner and you’ve ever wondered what I’ve been building behind the scenes… this is part of it.

Still an artist.
Just telling stories in more ways than one.

If you’ve been wondering where I’ve been lately… here’s what I’ve been building.

Alongside Memories As Art, I’ve expanded into digital marketing for small businesses through PTBA Business Services.

Over the years, I’ve realized that what I love most isn’t just creating beautiful images — it’s helping businesses grow through strategy, visuals, and strong branding.

Photography is still very much part of what I do.
But now, I’m also helping small businesses with marketing, payments, and creative strategy behind the scenes.

If you’d like to follow along with what I’m building and stay up to date on that side of my work, make sure to follow PTBA Business Services as well.

Excited for what’s ahead. 💛

✨ Branding photography is more than just pretty pictures. ✨
It’s storytelling.... It’s confidence... It’s connection!

As a business owner myself, I know how important it is to have imagery that actually reflects who you are and what you offer. Your photos should feel aligned with your brand—and make your audience stop scrolling.

That’s exactly what I help clients do during my personal branding photography sessions:

✔️ Capture their personality
✔️ Showcase their passion
✔️ Create versatile, professional images they can use across websites, social, ads, and more

Whether you’re a creative, a coach, a real estate pro, or just finally stepping into your brand identity… I’d love to help you feel empowered and seen.

Did you know? Not only do we offer portraits but we also do digital paintings. Send us your own images or get us to take them, and we can create a masterpiece for you too! We only take a select few per month. Since we are moving into the holiday season, now is the time to start thinking about what amazing gifts these would make for loved ones!

In this particular portrait, two of these beloved pets had passed the rainbow bridge already. We were able to create an amazing portrait including ALL of these sweet pups together by using cell phone pictures sent to us separately.
