Pareidolia (par·i·DOH·lee·uh)

The phenomenon of seeing patterns in the unstructured—faces in
the clouds, meaning in the abstract, stories in the shapes of the world.

It’s proof that perception is powerful, that beauty exists in all things, waiting to be discovered.

ABOUT PAREI

Our Process

Our work begins not with answers, but with listening — to what’s present, what’s possible, and what’s quietly waiting to arrive.

THE THREAD
We begin by uncovering your inner compass — the thread of truth that runs through your vision. Through discovery sessions, moodboards, and questions that go beneath the surface, we get clear on what’s calling.

THE WEAVE
With clarity as our guide, we begin to shape form from feeling. This phase is collaborative and intentional — sketches, iterations, thoughtful choices — grounded in design thinking, guided by intuition.

THE REVEAL
Your brand takes shape — not as something new, but as something that’s always been there, now visible. We walk with you through the final delivery, equipping you with everything needed to launch, grow, and evolve.

PHILOSOPHY

Brandi believes photos are metaphors, making the abstract concrete and mystifying the mundane. They believe photography is a conversation between the photographer, the subject, and those who will view these images for years to come. Brandi relishes in adding to the archive of humanity.

“As a child, I’d pour over family photo albums, admiring the portraits. Now, I get to add to our collective albums, our collective memories.”
