The Story Behind EA Creative Collective

A creative playground built on passion, people, and a little bit of flower thievery (sorry, neighbors).

EA Creative Collective is more than just a business. It’s the most me thing I’ve ever built — a blend of everything I love, everything I believe in, and all the little things that light me up creatively.

There are two main branches to this dream: photography and florals. But if we’re being honest, I’ll pretty much jump at the chance to do anything that lets my creative freak flag fly.

It All Started With a Camera and a Bunch of Willing Friends

Photography became a part of my life in 2017. I found myself constantly taking pictures of my friends, carrying my camera everywhere like it was attached to me. Joining the yearbook team was the moment I realized how fun it is to dream something up and then hold it in your hands. That feeling of pride? Nothing beats it.

I’ll forever be thankful for my English and Yearbook teacher, Mrs. Thomas, who cheered me on, made me laugh, and gave me space to grow that photographer muscle. She believed in me long before I believed in myself.

In high school and college, I was always the one behind the camera — helping my friends curate the perfect Instagram post or capturing everyday moments that meant everything to us. That passion only grew with time.

Today, I feel incredibly lucky to photograph such meaningful milestones. Seniors stepping into the next chapter, families who welcome me in as one of their own, and couples who let me be the first to say “congratulations!” when they get engaged. It’s a true honor to be part of those memories, and I don’t take a single session for granted.

The Florals? That Started With Walks and (Accidentally Stolen) Tulips

According to my mom, this part of the story started when I was little. We’d go on walks, and I’d pull tulips and flowers from neighbors' yards. So to those neighbors — I’m so sorry… but thank you for unknowingly planting the seed.

In 2017, I started working for Stylish Stems, a florist in the metro Atlanta area. That’s where I learned the ins and outs of floral design, how to prep for wedding days, and how to bring a vision to life. It’s also where I fell in love with the wedding industry.

Over the years, I worked on hundreds of weddings, foraged in the wildest places, and even helped design Lauren and Cameron’s wedding from Love is Blind on Netflix. (Yes, that iconic arch? That was me.)

When COVID hit and everything paused, I found peace in walking, watching TV, scrolling TikTok like the rest of the world… and making small bouquets for fun. Eventually, my friends started asking me to design florals for their weddings. I was so honored — and determined to be one thing they didn’t have to worry about. I’m forever thankful for those early clients and friends who trusted me before I even had a real brand name.

So… What is EACC?

It’s the photos. The florals. The people. The joy. It’s a reflection of my heart and creativity all wrapped into one.

To this day, I’ve been lucky enough to work over 750 events. From floral design and photography to creative direction, planning, and even bartending, I’ve worn many hats and loved every single one.

EA Creative Collective is built on connection, celebration, and creative freedom. It’s a space where I get to show up fully as myself — and where clients become friends, art becomes memory, and magic becomes tangible.

I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s make something beautiful together. 🌼✨
