Michelle McDowell

Branding Photographer

Michelle Davina Photography is an Atlanta, Georgia-based brand photographer that partners with creative entrepreneurs to help grow their businesses through killer visual content that vibes with their target audience.

In 2006, I started my photography journey by capturing weddings with visuals that would tell their unique love story. As some of my brides became boss babes, I saw another way that I could help them tell their story. But this time it was their brand story. And through brand photography, I can help others pursue their passions. If you need to visually tell your brand story in a way that will speak to your ideal audience and grow your business, my purpose and my passion are to help you do it.

Gina (Moccio) DeFord

Founder

Like most entrepreneurs, countless past lives led Gina (Moccio) DeFord to where she is today. From leading the marketing and events team at Creative Loafing, to launching the ‘Doughnut Ice Cream Cone’ in the U.S. and growing an IG account to 21K foodies strong at Datz Restaurant Group.

Today, she’s the founder and leader behind Babe Crafted. She started this membership because she saw a need in Tampa Bay for a business development club that a) helped women entrepreneurs build relationships with fellow women entrepreneurs, and b) gave women a platform to promote their business and try new things like video, without investing a ton of time and money figuring things out on their own. Today Babe Crafted’s membership serves 130+ women across 50 industries.

Between hosting Pinterest-worthy Babe Crafted member events, fostering connections between her members, and coaching membership founders, creating blog content, you’ll find Gina sipping coffee in a cozy nook in Downtown Tampa or at the Davis Island dog beach with her Husband and spunky Labrador.

She hopes that one day soon, she’ll get to create one of her famous hand-drawn name tags for you and cheers with you in real life.
