About

An Idea Studio is a boutique creative agency supporting founder-led brands. I work with makers and founders to help create brands that touch people.

My sweet spot is supporting female founders as they infuse their brands with their essence. You have the idea. I have a thousand ways to make people pay attention.

I love supporting founders with creative ideas, directing photography, building social strategy, directing editorial content, and producing small events that turn an audience into a community.

Cross-promotion is at the heart of it, connecting aligned local brands so growth feels less like advertising and more like a warm introduction.

Summer Rose, Founder & Creative Director

I’ve launched three successful brands of my own, written two books, and supported many others along the way.

What I’ve learned is that building a meaningful brand is less about creating the perfect grid and more about cultivating a real community around it.

I have a deep love for female founders and brick-and-mortar businesses.
