About

I am a second-generation graphic designer, a marketing professional specializing in the nonprofit space, and a photographer.

Originally from Hillsboro, Oregon, I grew up with two self-employed parents, and knew from a young age that I wanted to follow an entrepreneurial path. My dad was a talented graphic designer himself and taught me much of what I know. Fun fact: He used to call me “GB” - short for Ginabelle - and that’s his handwriting in my logo (hi, Dad!).

I’ve been helping small businesses and nonprofits augment their brands and marketing efforts for more than twenty years, and added photography services to the mix in 2016.

I have loved taking photos since I was a kid, and would often carry around a disposable camera. I’d print two copies of every photo - one for me and one to share. Although I studied photography in college, it wasn’t until the birth of my daughter that I felt inspired to make photography more than a hobby.

My photography style is simple and natural. I love capturing both milestone and everyday moments. I enjoy helping my clients feel amazing in front of the camera, and showing them that photo sessions don’t have to be painful (they might even be fun!). I like to photograph in unique locations that reflect my subjects’ personalities. I prefer natural light, candid shots, soft backgrounds, and vibrant colors. No photo shoot is alike, so you’ll never see my photos all looking the same. No filters here!

I live in Boise, Idaho with my husband, Matt, and little ones Remy and Aksel.
