About

Some businesses start with a business plan. Mine started with a season that quietly changed the way I see everything.

I have always been nostalgic. I am the person who saves photos, revisits memories, and finds meaning in the small moments that are so easy to move past. The everyday moments that somehow become the ones we never want to forget.

Before starting Hold This Moment Co., I spent nine years building a career in travel tech, working with incredible colleagues and partners around the world. I am genuinely grateful for everything that chapter taught me.

Then life shifted in ways I did not expect.

I became a mother for the first time, which has been the greatest joy of my life. In that same season, I also experienced loss that gave me a completely new relationship with time.

Grief has a way of making things very clear.

The people we love, the everyday moments, the seasons we are so sure we will remember forever, they pass faster than we are ready for. And so many of the photos that hold those memories end up buried on our phones, rarely seen and too easily forgotten.

I could not stop thinking about that.

I started Hold This Moment Co. because I wanted to create something simple, beautiful, and meaningful. A way to take the photos we love most and turn them into keepsakes we can actually see every day.

Hold This Moment Co. creates custom photo magnets from your favorite memories: your children, your parents, your pets, your travels, your milestones, and your people.

You share a photo, and I turn it into a beautiful keepsake magnet, made fresh on the spot at farmers markets and events across Iowa or delivered to your door anywhere in the U.S.

Every order is personal to me because every photo means something to someone. Being trusted with those memories is something I never take for granted.

Thank you for being here. I am so grateful you found Hold This Moment Co.
