Hi, I’m Payton! I’m a social media manager and photographer who believes your brand deserves to stand out, not blend in. I graduated from the University of South Dakota (go Yotes!) with a degree in Media & Journalism, emphasis in Strategic Communications, and wasted no time chasing the sunshine. Right after college, I packed up and moved to Florida to grow my portfolio and live out my childhood dream of being near the beach.

But no matter how far I traveled, my small-town Iowa roots always pulled me back. Growing up on a farm taught me hard work, grit, and creativity—the perfect combo for helping businesses tell their stories in fresh, eye-catching ways. I’m ambitious, a little obsessed with summer and the beach, and fueled by music, sports, and good times with family and friends. At the end of the day, I’m here to make your brand bold, memorable, and impossible to ignore. I can’t wait to connect!
