My name is Emma (she/her) and I'm a photographer living my best life in the great city of Baltimore, Maryland. I love capturing people's stories using a unique and editorial approach that may be different from the ordinary lifestyle photographer. In other words, I'm no regular photographer! My goal is to work with you to create art that is personal to you and make you feel confident while doing so.

I dream of one day owning a little cottage with a huge, luscious garden and a stream out back, and spending my days decorating and creating a home of my own. I'm the youngest of 3 and the only child who is not married (family events are always super fun:), and I currently live in a 120 year old house with my Italian Greyhound, Lilly!

My photographic journey began humbly in eighth grade as a casual hobby, with no interest in portrait photography. However, during high school, my passion evolved as I immersed myself in photography classes, exploring film and mastering camera techniques. As I learned more, I became captivated by the art of capturing emotions and stories through portrait photography. The turning point came when I second shot a wedding as a high school senior, even skipping school for the opportunity. That experience solidified my love for portrait photography and deepened my commitment to improving my skills. Now, I embrace every chance to creating meaningful images that evoke emotions and tell powerful stories.

After high school, I gave community college a shot for a year, taking photography and marketing courses. But the real eye-opener was the weekends – that's when I got hands-on experience second shooting weddings and doing shoots with high school seniors. It hit me then – I was learning way more from those experiences than in the classroom. So, I decided to take a break after my first year, focusing on my photography passion while juggling a part-time gig. Surprise, surprise, I never made it back to college! Not saying it's off the table forever, but for now, I'm just living my photography dream and loving every minute of it!

At a ripe age of 19, I made a significant move, leaving my parents' home to embark on an adventure in Baltimore City. While still balancing a part-time job in Annapolis, destiny had something special in store for me. After a few months, an incredible opportunity presented itself at a local boutique in Baltimore, and little did I know how much it would shape my life. This was the turning point that led me into the captivating world of fashion photography. I delved into the role of a Creative Director and e-commerce photographer, honing my skills and gaining invaluable experience over the years. However, I eventually felt the urge to explore new horizons, and so I decided to take the plunge into the freelance world. It has been an exhilarating journey ever since, filled with freedom, creativity, and thrilling challenges that keep me on my toes.

I aspire to one day travel the world photographing quirky couples in love at exotic and beautiful locations or photographing for large fashion companies and celebrities. Wherever my photography takes me, I can't wait to see how it continues to change me and shape me as a person and an artist!
