Welcome to the Creative Blog


At Start and Snap, this is where story meets strategy. My creative branding blog is built for makers, small business owners, and creative entrepreneurs who want to grow online — with strong visuals and clear messaging.
Through real client stories, behind-the-scenes content, and helpful tips, we share how small brands can stand out. Whether you’re launching a product or rethinking your website, you’ll find content here that’s both beautiful and practical.
You’ll also get insights from my two creative studios:
Monicja Photography brings your story to life through branding shoots and content-ready images.
MP Digital Design helps turn those visuals into powerful marketing tools — like Reels, email campaigns, and social strategies.
I post project recaps, styling guides, content creation ideas, and more — always with small businesses in mind. If you’re ready to simplify your content and connect with the right audience, this is the place to start.
