hello there!

I'm Esther—a creator and designer passionate about helping small businesses thrive through creative photography + marketing!

Collaborating with women-owned brands to elevate their visual marketing has been a dream of mine for a long time, and I am so honored and humbled it's finally a reality. I am an Asbury University alum with experience in both art and business, and a full time photographer and social media marketer through Esther Ellyn.

​Outside of photography and all things design, you can find me on road trips, growing my plant collection, and sipping oat milk lattes in any coffee shop I can find.

I live in Lexington, Kentucky with my sweet husband Hayden, and wild kitten, Mabel.
I specialize in local businesses but frequently serve businesses remotely as well. I also LOVE traveling for photo sessions. 

​Reach out and send me a message—I would love to grab coffee and chat about how I can creatively help you + your brand reach your goals!
