I’m Talisa Monet,the creator behind the camera.

Calling Los Angeles home, traveling wherever stories unfold.

I’ve got you.

From concept to final shot. I bring the full package, from big picture vision to the perfect last frame. My Westlake Village studio is my creative playground for portraits and product shoots, but I’m just as at home on location, bringing a brand’s story to life.

My work lives at the intersection of creativity and strategy, where strong visuals don’t just look good, they actually do something.

I’m a creative partner to CRTE. The public-facing brand here is Talisa Monet: photography, film, UGC, and direction under my name. CRTE is the agency I lead creatively. This studio is how the pictures get made.

Fueled by caffeine, creativity, and a determination that could power a small city. Whether you’re a start-up or an established brand, I’m here to help you grow, stand out, and look damn good doing it.
