Leading Ladies: Renata Fernandez

Each month, we spotlight incredible women across the Murray region and beyond who are leading with heart, purpose, and authenticity. These women inspire us with how they show up — for themselves, their work, and their communities. This month, we’re proud to introduce you to Renata, the creative force behind Casa Sozzial.

Meet Renata

“I’m Renata, the founder of Casa Sozzial – a creative ‘social house’ where brands feel at home.”

Renata is a visual storyteller, content creator, and event documenter who brings warmth and intentionality to every frame. Through Casa Sozzial, she partners with small businesses, creatives, and heart-led brands to capture not just the product — but the feeling behind it.

Whether she’s snapping candid behind-the-scenes moments, producing dreamy visual campaigns, or curating digital stories that truly resonate, Renata’s signature style is grounded in authenticity.

“I’m all about good vibes, meaningful moments, and visuals that feel true to who you are.”

Her deep love for creative storytelling is matched only by her passion for community. A proud Mexican and self-confessed coffee snob, Renata is constantly inspired by the little details — the quiet glances, the morning light, the way people feel in a space.

🤍 What Community Means to Her

“To me, community is about connection, warmth & feeling seen.”

Renata believes community can be found anywhere there’s genuine connection — whether it’s a creative collaboration, a shared cup of coffee, or simply showing up for someone. For her, it’s about that deep knowing that there are people around you who get you, support you, and want to see you grow.

“It’s that sense of belonging and knowing there are people around who get you, support you and want to see you do well!”
