Capturing who you are, as you are.

I capture what matters—your people, your purpose, your places.

A note from Emma

I don’t believe in perfect moments—I believe in real ones.

Whether I’m photographing a brand launch, a breastfeeding mama, or a barefoot walk through a boutique hotel hallway, I’m here for the messy, the magical, and the in-between.

I’m Emma—photographer, UX designer, mom, feminist, and unapologetic lover of Skyline Chili and Bengals memes. I believe in laughing mid-photo, crying if you need to, and being exactly who you are in front of my lens.

With me, it’s not just a session. It’s a safe space. A hype zone. A little bit of chaos, a lot of connection, and photos that feel like you

My work follows real life — the people, the brands, and the spaces that make it meaningful. From a sun-drenched hotel suite to your toddler in full-on chaos mode.

And if it’s real, I’m here for it.

Come as you are. I’ll take care of the rest.

Real Life, Captured

More than posed. More than perfect.
Family, motherhood, and the raw beauty of everyday love.

Your Brand’s Story

Photos that speak your vibe—not just your product.
Because your brand is more than a business. It’s you.

Places with Soul

Spaces that breathe, places that linger.
Boutique hotels, interiors, and destination energy—captured with heart

A few weeks after losing my own dog, I saw a post in a local group. Miller’s family was looking for someone to capture a goodbye. No big production. No need for poses. Just presence. I knew I had to say yes. Miller had lived a good, long lif
He’s my baby brother. The only boy after four girls. The last piece of our puzzle. And now, somehow, he’s getting married. I took these at their rehearsal dinner at Redtree Art Gallery & Coffee Shop in downtown Cincinnati. The art on
The stretch of new skin. A yawn that takes everything she has. Milk dribbled across her lips like art. The softness, the mess, the stillness—this is it. Real life doesn’t wait until you’re rested or ready. It just shows up. And I&r
When visiting Siesta Key in January, we wandered into town one morning and found the most charming Colombian pop-up coffee shop called 85 Drips. The espresso was smooth and bold and exactly what I didn’t know I needed. I watched the cold brew
