Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Rose-Gaelle Jolissaint. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Rose-Gaelle, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?
I found my purpose by following the thread of creativity that has always been a part of me. Growing up, I didn’t always have the words for what I wanted to do, but I knew I was drawn to beauty, to storytelling, and to helping people feel seen. Over time, I realized that my gift wasn’t just one thing—it was many: photography, styling, marketing, set design, and creative direction. For a while, I thought I had to choose just one lane, but the truth is my purpose was in bringing them together.
I discovered it fully when I started doing the very things I studied and loved; styling shoots, creating campaigns, managing artists, and capturing stories through my lens. The more I leaned into that work, the more it felt like alignment.
For me, purpose isn’t just about what I do, it’s about how I serve, whether it’s helping a client tell their story with confidence, creating art that inspires, or holding space for healing and community. My purpose is to create, to uplift, and to transform visions into reality. Every step, even the challenges, brought me closer to realizing that.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Professionally, I wear many creative hats; photographer, stylist, creative director, and marketing strategist. My work is rooted in storytelling, whether it’s through a single image, a styled set, or a brand campaign. What excites me most is the ability to bring ideas to life, transforming a vision into something tangible and beautiful that others can connect with.
One of the things I’m most proud of is how I’ve blended my skills into unique experiences. For example, I’ve created “Brew & View,” a photo exhibition series that brings people together over art, conversation, and community. It’s not just about showing photos—it’s about building connections and sparking dialogue in ways that feel fresh and inclusive.
I think what makes my work special is that it’s never just surface-level. Whether I’m managing a social media campaign, designing a set, or capturing a portrait, I put intention into everything. I want people to feel something when they engage with my work whether that’s empowerment, inspiration, or a sense of belonging.
Right now, I’m focused on expanding my photography and creative direction projects, while continuing to build spaces both physical and digital, that celebrate creativity and community. I see art as not just something we consume, but something that connects us, and my work is about creating those bridges.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Looking back, the three qualities that have been most impactful in my journey are resilience, curiosity, and intentionality.
Resilience has been key because the creative world is full of challenges, projects that don’t go as planned, opportunities that fall through, or moments where you have to start over. Instead of letting setbacks stop me, I’ve learned to see them as redirections.
Curiosity has kept me evolving. I never boxed myself into just one title, I allowed myself to explore photography, styling, marketing, and more. That willingness to learn and experiment is what helped me discover my purpose and create opportunities I couldn’t have planned for.
Intentionality ties it all together. I try to put meaning into everything I create, whether it’s an image, a campaign, or an event. People can feel when your work comes from a deeper place, and that’s what leaves an impact.
For anyone early in their journey, my advice is:
Don’t be afraid to fail, failure is often the best teacher.
Stay curious and try new things, you never know which skill will open the next door.
Work with intention, not just speed, slowing down to do things with purpose often sets you apart.
What was the most impactful thing your parents did for you?
The most impactful thing my dad did for me was show me the value of resilience and self-belief. He always reminded me that no matter how hard life gets, I have the ability to rise above it. He wasn’t the type to hand me everything, I had to work for what I wanted but he gave me the confidence to believe in my own strength.
His example taught me discipline, independence, and the importance of staying grounded while reaching for bigger dreams. I carry that with me in everything I do today, and it’s one of the main reasons I’ve been able to step into my creative path without fear.
