About
Hi there! I’m Kristen, an approachable SEO guru and small business owner!
ISFP, mom to kids and plants, loves bubblegum ice cream and is always on the hunt for a new coffee shop or taco stand.
ONCE UPON A TIME
I was a molecular plant biologist studying flower genes.
I did lots of cool stuff in lab - I worked with petunias, with ferns, and other weird plants to figure out how they worked....
...but family health emergencies highlighted to me that time is fleeting. I realized I wanted to prioritize making memories with my family and capturing those moments through photos - I became a portrait photographer and small business owner!
I love being a photographer - but what I didn't love? The amount of time that marketing on social media took away from my family time.
I got into the portrait photography business to spend more time with my family and to preserve precious memories for my clients.
I needed to change my marketing plan.

I was spending hours each day on my phone, ignoring my family, and trying to successfully market my business.
Something had to change.
I put the time in
I boosted my SEO - and ditched social media - with no slowdown in inquiries or bookings...and with raised prices.
I did a lot of digging, research, and blogging, and turned my website into a lead gathering machine. I'm now ranking in the top 1-3 for my keywords, bring in plenty of qualified leads, and saw no slowdown in bookings, even with price raises.
I want this for YOU, too! I'm here to help you boost your SEO and increase your rankings - so you can get your time back!
MY REALLY OFFICIAL BIO, the TL:DR VERSION
