Welcome to the blog, sort of like a digital garden where dreams are planted and grow wild! My name is Quianna and my family calls me “Qui” like key! I’m a traveling photographer based in Scottsdale and the Bay Area.
I love adventures and creating memories even more than I love photographing them—and I LOVE taking photos! In addition to capturing weddings, family milestones, and the best memories I also offer business tools, motivation and inspiration to help creatives turn their passions into their profession. We only get this one life, why not live our days doing what we love?
Speaker Spotlight 2024 | Phoenix Women Take The Stage
Speaker Spotlight 2024
Steph hosted the first Speaker Spotlight in September of 2024 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Stepping on stage, these talented and ambitious women invested in this creative event hosted by my friend Stephanie Dorworth! After pitching herself for recent speaking opportunities, Steph realized that she may have more opportunities to share! This is the perfect example of Steph realizing there was a need in the industry and she created something I’ve never seen before!
Every little detail was considered from including local women owned small businesses to share their products during the welcome mixer, gift bags + swag, setting the stage, capturing audio + video, to snacks + drinks to celebrate! As a huge Swiftie fan, Steph even greeted every speaker with a custom bracelet! There was a beautiful, intimate group of supportive women that gave real time feedback in the audience for ambitious speakers to share their stories and express themselves in a safe space on stage.
Having Steph has the creative director, videographer and editor, each speaker received headshots, tons of behind the scenes clips, edited sound bite reels and short form videos to share on social media and pitch for future speaking opportunities and events.
If you’re interested in getting asked to be on stage, having a stage to share what you’re capable of will help ignite even more speaking opportunities! Make sure to follow along with Steph for future events and check out more info about The Speaker Spotlight! I can’t wait for next one January 31st, 2025!
As the photographer and Behind The Scenes creator for this event, I felt so many emotional moments, and all the chills listening to these ladies and their stories. I could relate to many of them and they all left me wanting to learn more about their business, stories and offers! I knew this event was going to be magical because everything Stephanie touches turns to GOLD, but I can honestly say I was blown away by these ladies and could truly FEEL the energy in the room!
This is why investing in photography and video to capture your voice, feel your emotions and share your stories is SO important! Can’t wait for the next one already!!!
You can expect to hear back from me within 24 hours on weekdays! Weekends are reserved for shooting weddings, but I'll be back in a jif to reply to your message!
