Next up is @weshopamano who took the lead for a couple of years before @rivetsandroses became a studio of six photographers. Louisa says that @eliesajohnson’s leadership and mentorship helped her develop a sense of personal style and storytelling. Eventually leaving the wedding industry, Louisa started a second business, called A MANO. She sells handmade goods by makers from around the country, as well as her own ceramics. She now spends her time split between photography and making pottery in her NE Minneapolis art studio. See more on the blog!
@rivetsandroses started small and grew over the years. The first photographer was a longtime assistant, @brandonwerth and he thrived in his role as the first lead. Brandon says " I learned so much being a lead photographer for Rivets and it is an honor to know that I was able to be a part of that beautiful creation Eliesa made for other people to enter and feel what its like to own yourself and own a business while also having the confidence to keep working hard to be on the forefront of creativity, inclusiveness, and humbleness."

@rivetsandroses began 10 years ago. Owner @eliesajohnson was about 5 years into her freelance career, which was split between focusing on editorial and wedding work for Photogen Inc. In the first years of business, the client base with Photogen Inc. began to grow as well as Eliesa's price point. The assistants on the team kept getting better and better and at the time, a lot of wedding photographers were hiring 'associate' photographers underneath them. Eliesa didn't really love this approach, because it felt like those artists were then 'second-best' or the cheaper option. Nothing about our team was second or cheap. Eliesa wanted to empower these photographers, teach them a part of the business and have them lead their own clients on their wedding days. Because of this, Eliesa chose to open a second brand - a wedding photography studio and Rivets and Roses was born! Link in profile to see more.
