Miranda sees beauty though light, her approach uses both natural and artificial illumination to create compositions that are not only stunning but also rich with emotion.

This commitment to authentic and compelling storytelling extends to our business clients, helping entrepreneurs and brands tell their unique story through professional headshots, brand imagery, and promotional videos that truly stand out.

The history of Blossom Blue Studios begins with the founder, Miranda Hayek, who inherited a rich legacy of healers, storytellers, and creatives. Miranda, a kinesiologist and aquatic specialist by trade, dedicated two decades to the non-profit sector, where she used her expertise to support individuals with limited mobility. Her unique approach, combining her love for people and nature with the power of visual media, helped her tell compelling stories that secured crucial funding for health and wellness programs and services nationwide. 

In 2008, as the country faced an economic downturn, Miranda's job was eliminated. Reflecting on this turning point, she remembers feeling "gutted and kicked out on the curb," but also recognized it as a new path forward. With the digital world rapidly evolving, her distinctive style of portraiture was already gaining traction. She decided to follow her creative instincts, taking a leap of faith into full-time photography. In a moment of both personal and global chaos, she posed a question to herself that would change her life: "If not now, then when?" That resolve gave birth to Blossom Blue Studios.

Through the years, Blossom Blue Studios has expanded to offer a comprehensive suite of services, ranging from archival prints that preserve timeless moments to cutting-edge commercial digital stills and video content, all designed to help individuals and businesses tell their unique stories with depth and authenticity. Empowering and supporting individuals and organizations to be and do their very best.
