Meet the Team

We are a female-run, curly-haired, maine based photography business. We are total perfectionists when it comes to our images, but we absolutely love what we do and have lots of fun along the way!

  • OWNER/PHOTOGRAPHER

    I am an artist, healer, intuitive, magic fairy gardener zoophilist, mama, writer and professional photographer. I have been creating safe spaces for individuals to be seen, heard, and honored for over 27 years. I witness the exquisite transformations that occur when we heal our relationship with our sacred bodies, moving towards shedding a lifetime of shame.

    These vessels that hold our stories offer up deeply rooted intuitive wisdom the more we tune in to them. I am honored to be part of the journey of helping women return to their whole self.

    Creating a safe container starts long before I get you in front of my lens. It is intimate and vulnerable work, and I don’t take it for granted that I am continuously blessed with clients who choose me to see them. And to help them see themselves.

  • ASSOCIATE PHOTOGRAPHER

    Introducing my associate, other half of my brain (honestly 3/4 of it), social media maven, editor extraordinaire, and portrait partner, Evie Hansford!

    I am a Photographer, Editor, Filmmaker, Website Designer, Social Media Creator, and all things visual art kind of human. In other words, a Libra.

    I have always been fascinated with creating. Growing up, I spent my days exploring the woods, writing plays, and (once I got my first camera) taking pictures and making movies. I studied Photography & Filmmaking at Emerson College, and have worked in visual arts ever since.

    Taking portraits is the work I am most passionate about. My focus is a balance of helping people feel comfortable and seen as well as creating images that bring out their authentic self. I am also simply in obsessed with all things aesthetic- combining light, composition, and posing to create images that work artistically as a whole.

    I love shooting digital, but I also have a deep appreciation for film photography (My Mamiya 7 is my prized possession!) I also love live music, traveling, strong coffee, going to the movies, and thrifting (mostly denim jackets!)
