At Knot Planned Studio, our mission is to create a welcoming space where creativity thrives, connection is nurtured, and the unplanned moments are celebrated. Through photography, hands-on workshops, and meaningful experiences, we empower people to slow down, express themselves freely, and find beauty in the imperfect.

We believe in community over competition, art as a form of self-care, and that some of life’s best stories start with, “This wasn’t the plan, but…”

MY FAVORITE ACCESSORY

Is it just a coincidence that Sherbert matches the décor in just about every room of our home? I can’t be sure. I may have designed a few spaces with him in mind, this patio being one of them. It’s his favorite place to be and I think he really puts the finishing touch on it!


its a vibe 101

At Knot Planned Studio, “It’s a Vibe” isn’t just something we say, it’s the heartbeat of everything we do. It’s the feeling you get when you walk in and instantly feel at home, when creativity flows effortlessly, and when the music, the lighting, the laughter, and even the slightly crooked picture frame all come together just right. It’s about more than aesthetics — it’s about energy, intention, and showing up exactly as you are. Whether you're here for a shoot, a macramé class, or a spontaneous hangout, the vibe is always warm, welcoming, and wildly real. No pressure. No perfection. Just good people, good energy, and space to be yourself.
