Welcome.

I’m Emma — your personal

Photojournalist and photographer of beautiful people and places.

 
 
 
 

I was 11 years old

when I got my first camera —

A bright blue Sony CyberShot

 
 

Photography has always been a way for me to convey how I see the world, but it also gives me a sense of connection. I’m a sentimental person to a fault, and while photography is my artistic expression, it is also an act of service. A service I take pride in and love very deeply.

Photography brings me closer to people and their stories, and I love what I do because of those stories.

Let me be your personal photojournalist, and I promise to capture your life with intention and heart as I have since the beginning with that little blue camera.

 
 

Aside from photography:

you can most likely find me with dogs. My rescue dog, Zeus, is my right hand man and if it weren’t for his size, I’d bring him everywhere with me. I also love being in the sun. I think road trips are the best vacations. And walking my dog and watching movies with my fiance, Alex, are my favorite pastimes.

some favorites from the current editing queue with the Buening family and their newest little addition!
it was a lovely, quintessential spring day celebrating these lovebirds 🕊️
It’s always hard to pick a favorite part of your day, but for Kennedy + Jack’s, it’s a tie between the wedding party chanting “Kenny G” post ceremony and the FOB speech. all smiles all day with these two.
