Brand Shoot For:
Dirt Road Dahlias
You ever had a phone call with a client where you hung up the phone and then jumped up and down fist-pumping there air yelling WOO HOO!! That was me, after my planning session with Tori. I felt like I just GOT her. The story behind Dirt Road Dhalias is heartfelt and beautiful, and after hearing about her vision I literally couldn’t wait to bring these storylines to life.
Dirt Road Dahlias Mission Statement: Dirt Road grows vibrant dahlias and seasonal flowers to bring beauty, joy, and connection to the Grant County community— building a beloved summer tradition and lasting local staple.

Client Objectives

Storylines
We wanted to capture about 4 storylines:1) The art of bouquet Making

3) Dahlias at your party (tablescape)
4) The Family legacy with the old farm truck Tori’s father gifted her for her business
goal 2
Clips for Social Media
We prioritized shooting slow motion clips in VERTICAL format— these are what is most useable for social media. These are easy to put music to and words over and there ya go— a beautiful reel that stands out. goal 3
Capture the HEART behind these flowers.
These flowers are Tori’s pride and joy, but it’s a business supported by her family. Her daughter often makes bouquets with her, her husband brings the muscles and tools to help bring her vision to life, and her dad believed in her dream and gifted her an old truck to take to the farmers market. This is a family legacy, and a gift of beauty to the community that she loves.THE PLANNING PROCESS
Research
My branding packages include an extensive questionnaire to help us outline your ideal client, business goals, and storylines.
Once Tori completed hers, we collaborated on ideas: What locations would speak to her values? What kind of outfits felt aligned?
From there, I created her Brand Map — the backbone of the shoot. It includes a detailed timeline, storylines, shot list, wardrobe plan, locations, and mood board inspiration, all in a beautifully designed PDF. It’s where the creative vision truly comes to life.
