THOUGHTFUL DIRECTION

INTENTIONAL EXECUTION

WHEN VISUALS START TO feel inconsistent, DIRECTION MATTERS MORE THAN EVER.

AS A BRAND GROWS, VISUALS OFTEN BECOME HARDER TO MANAGE. TEAMS STRETCHED THIN, ASSETS MULTIPLY, AND WHAT ONcE FELT COHESIVE CAN BEGIN TO FEEL INCONSISTENT, EVEN WHEN THE PRODUCT ITSELF REMAINS STRONG.

Noir & Glow partners with brands at the stage to bring structure back to the visual system. Through intentional creative direction and execution, I translate your brand’s core message into imagery that feels polished, confident, and consistent without adding unnecessary complexity to your workflow.

This is where scattered visuals become cohesive again, launches feel easier to manage, and you can trust what is going out into the world.

the Essentials suite

Have questions? Let’s clear them up.

  • That’s exactly what the intake process is for. We’ll define your goals, timeline, and audience first then build a scope that fits your unique needs. Whether it’s a one-time refresh or a full brand library, clarity always comes first.

  • Yes. Licensing and add-ons are tailored to each project based on how the imagery will be used. This can include paid media usage, packaging, talent, or additional content beyond the initial scope. We’ll walk through these details upfront so you can make informed decisions and include only what supports your goals.

  • The Essentials Suite is ideal for product launches, seasonal content, or smaller-scope needs that still deserve thoughtful direction.

    The Visual Suite is a full-service experience that brings strategy, production, and creative direction together. It’s designed for brands looking to go deeper with their visual identity and build a more expansive library of assets.

  • Consulting gives you strategic support without a full shoot. It’s perfect for brands needing launch planning, visual audits, moodboards, or a second set of eyes on creative with options for one-time sessions or ongoing support.

  • Most clients book 4-6 weeks out to allow for strategy and production prep. If you’re on a tighter timeline, The Essentials Suite or consulting may be a better fit depending on availability.

  • Every brand’s needs are different and so are the budgets. Once we align on scope, strategy, and deliverables, you’ll receive a custom quote that reflects the work needed.

  • Once you submit an inquiry, I’ll review the details and follow up within 1–2 business days. From there, we’ll confirm scope, timing, and the best service fit before moving into next steps. The goal is to make the process clear and efficient from the start.
