From Passion to Profession
Our story starts with two sisters who share a passion for plants and photography. Carsen, the oldest, and Tiernan, the youngest, are not only close in age but also in everything they do. Born and raised amidst the cornfields of Carroll County, we grew up playing soccer, helping our mom in the garden, and attending the same schools.
Both of us had a knack for creating and capturing little moments from our childhood on our mom's digital camera. One year for Christmas, our grandfather gifted us our very own camera—a point-and-shoot Canon PowerShot A560. And just like that, the rest was history!

The Blossoming of a Dream
Tiernan gravitated towards photography, diving into classes during her undergrad to learn the inner workings of that magical mirrorless moment machine. Meanwhile, Carsen transformed into a social butterfly, flitting around the digital landscape known as Instagram.
In 2020, during the chaos of COVID-19, Carsen founded the business originally named Project Connect. Her mission was simple yet profound: to help local businesses stay connected with their customers when we were all forced to remain apart.
The Power of Connection
We all know how isolating those days felt, right? It was like being stuck in a never-ending game of hide and seek, but nobody was seeking. That's where our passion for connection came into play. We wanted to bridge that gap, to help businesses thrive even when the world felt upside down.
As the pandemic continued, Carsen realized that the love for growing things extended beyond just plants. Eventually, she brought Tiernan on board to help manage new clients. Together, we now run Monstera Marketing LLC, with the goal of nurturing our clientele—just like our many houseplants.
