Well hey there!

My name is Kori, and I love to eat! My love for food started when I was five and my parents tricked me into trying calamari by calling it mini onion rings. One bite, and I was hooked, possibly the youngest foodie in history (though my fact-checking is about as reliable as Wikipedia).

Like most kids, I had a rotating list of dream careers: dancer, vet, lawyer, princess. In high school I became serious about a future in culinary, taking classes at the Culinary Institute of America. Then I found out bakery owners wake up at 3 a.m., and I quickly reconsidered. That’s when I turned to my second love, photography. I went on to study at Rochester Institute of Technology, earning a BFA in Advertising Photography with minors in New Media Production and Advertising & Public Relations.

I started out in some of the industry’s top studios, where my job was to make sure creative concepts didn’t just look great but actually worked for the brand. I was the bridge between big ideas and real-world execution, ensuring every piece was sharp and on point. But just handling one part of a campaign wasn’t enough. I wanted to be part of the whole thing, from the first spark of an idea to the final rollout. That’s what led me to step beyond just photography and into full-scale creative production. For me, the best work isn’t just about a single image or a great concept. It’s about how everything connects.

And hey, when I’m not working, you can find me…

📺 Binge-watching HGTV, still trying to figure out how a dog walker and a pencil designer afford a $1.5M home (House Hunters, I have questions).
🏂 Snowboarding.
🌍 Traveling. I’ve been to over seven countries and counting.
⛺ Hiking, camping, and soaking up as much fresh air as possible.
🐶 Volunteering at my local Humane Society.
