Earth & Ether is a creative and healing studio based in Sacramento, California, offering transformational photography, somatic healing, and ritual based creative experiences.


It was built as a sanctuary for the humans who feel too much, dream too big, and crave something deeper.


We offer experiences that are both artistic and deeply personal, existing to support women and creatives in reclaiming their voice, their vision, and their inner power.


Earth & Ether offers photography, healing, and creative direction experiences designed to support embodiment, expression, and nervous system safety.


Through soulful photography, creative direction, embodied business and brand strategy for creatives, somatic healing, intuitive rituals, and bodywork, we support our clients in embodying their fullest self-expression.


This work bridges creative direction, photography, somatic healing, and nervous system awareness.


We blend editorial storytelling with somatic grounding, so you don’t just look powerful… you feel safe.


Because when the nervous system feels safe, the truth rises to the surface.


And the truth is always a work of art.


My work is rooted in the belief that creativity is medicine; a way of life, a biological imperative, and a way to alchemize the human experience, transmuting our pain into art.


My role is to hold the lantern while you walk yourself back home.

Testimonials

" I had a tarot reading on the beach, Baird is very knowledgeable on tarot and very helpful on translating the meaning and  inspiring a sense of self reflection "

—Carmen P

My reading with Baird couldn't have come at a better time. It was a huge sigh of relief knowing that her ability to offer guidance on my situation through her knowledge of tarot and trust of her intuition were there for me during that time. I felt so comforted and safe as she set the space with a cleanse and intention setting. All my questions were answered, and she was also able to give me additional elaboration and guidance on certain areas I wanted to dive deeper on.  I will always remember the special, powerful reading I had that night.

—Mckenzie K

"Baird has such a calming playful presence that instantly feels like such a safe space. The session was like a warm hug.
