ABOUT ME
Branding, Creative Direction, and Support for Business Owners
I’m Morgan, the founder and creative director of Silver Lining Marketing. I help business owners in Southern Minnesota, Northern Iowa, and beyond build brands that feel intentional, confident, and full of life. My work blends social media management, creative direction, branding, photography, website design, and logo design into one seamless experience that supports you from vision to execution.
Every business has a spark. My purpose is to help you find yours and bring it forward in a way that feels strategic, authentic, and true to who you are.
MY STORY
My story is shaped by rebuilding and learning who I am through seasons that stretched me and taught me how to start again. I have lived through family changes, loss, and friendships shifting. Even in the hardest moments, I eventually found the silver lining. Those experiences taught me resilience, creativity, and the belief that every chapter has purpose.
That perspective is the heart of Silver Lining Marketing. I know what it feels like to chase a dream while juggling real life. I know what it feels like to start over. I also know how powerful it is to have someone in your corner who believes in your vision.
My family is my foundation.
My husband Jake is my steady place and the person who supports me in every stage of my business. My daughter is my little creative partner who dreams and builds right alongside me. My son brings his own spark and reminds me to stay curious. They inspire the way I show up for others with heart and purpose.
I started Silver Lining Photography nearly a decade ago, stepped back to grow my family, and returned with a clearer vision than ever. Silver Lining Marketing brings together everything I love. Design, storytelling, photography, organization, and helping people feel proud of their brand.
HOW I HELP PEOPLE
Most clients come to me with a vision but no clear path to bring it to life. I help them move from overwhelmed to confident by creating a brand that feels aligned, intentional, and true to who they are.
I do not just design.
I see the full picture.
I do not just take photos.
I understand the brand behind them.
I pour my heart into every project because I want your brand to feel unforgettable.
I work with all business owners, but I naturally connect with women. I understand their energy, their passions, and the way they want to show up in the world. Supporting them feels meaningful and natural.
MY EXPERIENCE
Ten Years of Creative Work, Strategy, and Storytelling
I bring more than ten years of creative work, marketing strategy, and storytelling to every project. I have coordinated events, built timelines and visual materials, and created photography and design work that helps brands stand out.
I also manage our family racing brand, which has grown to more than ten thousand followers on TikTok and continues to build engagement across Facebook and Instagram. People often tell me that my work captures exactly what they imagined or that it has a look they have never seen before. I stay with you until your brand feels right because I care deeply about the outcome.
A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME
My two Frenchies, Rev and Nitro, are the mascots of our home racing world. My kids drive Junior Dragsters, so weekends at the track are our second home. I grew up watching I Love Lucy and still love the charm of old school storytelling. I am a list maker, a template designer, and someone who feels most creative when I am outside soaking up the sun.
