Honestly? Every farm.

Every farm needs updated imagery each year — hands down.

Because the truth is: your customers want to see you. They want to see the season unfolding, the work behind the scenes, and the people growing their food and flowers. That’s what builds trust, connection, and organic growth over time.

You need current imagery for:

• consistent social media (so you’re not scrambling)

• a website that actually communicates what you do

• seasonal sales (CSA, subscriptions, markets, workshops)

• press

If you’re growing something and selling it — this is for you.

Most farms do well with 4–8 hours per season, depending on how much you want documented and how often you post.

A simple guide:

• 2 hours = a strong starter gallery + website refresh

• 4 hours = enough variety for a season of content

• 6–8 hours = ongoing storytelling across spring/summer/fall

If you’re not sure, I’m happy to recommend a starting point based on your farm and your goals.

Peak bloom is beautiful — but it’s not the only moment that matters.

The strongest farm brands aren’t built on one week of abundance. They’re built on consistency and story over time.

Spring shows beginnings — seed trays, greenhouse light, hands planting.

Summer shows growth and scale.

Fall shows harvest and closing the loop.

If you only document peak season, you miss the part that builds trust: the work, the process, the care behind it.

Abundance attracts attention.
Process builds connection.

You don’t need to photograph every season — but documenting at least one meaningful window each year keeps your marketing current and your story honest.

What is it like to work with you?

Pretty relaxed.

We’ll talk a bit beforehand so I understand what you’re growing and what you need the images for. Nothing formal — just enough so we’re on the same page.

On the day of the shoot, you can just work like you normally do. I’m used to how farms feel and run, so I just move around and photograph what’s happening.

I garden too, so I genuinely love seeing what you’re growing. New varieties, healthy compost piles, whatever you’re excited about — I’ll probably be excited too.

I’m laid back, but I’m comfortable giving direction — especially if we’re grabbing a portrait or a specific image for your website. I won’t overcomplicate it, but I will make sure we get what you actually need.

It should feel easy. And it usually does.

No — in fact, for storytelling sessions, a normal workday is ideal.

That’s the point.

Planting, harvesting, washing buckets, moving irrigation, loading the truck, arranging flowers — the real rhythm of your day is what makes the images compelling.

You don’t need to stage anything or perform for the camera. Just work like you normally would, and I’ll document what’s happening.

I’m comfortable on farms — with the pace, the mess, the light, the flow of the day — and my goal is to blend in and capture what’s real.

If we’re planning product-focused imagery (packaging, specific arrangements, website hero shots, etc.), then we’ll talk ahead of time and make a simple plan. But for most Farm Photo Hours, real life is exactly what we want.

Maybe a little. Just happens! But I talk to you the whole time and we just work our way though. It’s not as bad as you think.

Most of what I photograph is hands working, real moments, and your space — not stiff posing. If we do portraits, I’ll guide you simply and keep it natural.

Some farms know exactly what they want and are ready to book. Others need to talk it through first. Both are welcome.

Tell me about your farm, your season, and what you’re hoping for — and I’ll guide you from there.
