Hiya, I'm Emma! I am so excited that you're here and wanting to learn a little about who I am! I am originally from Jacksonville, FL but currently live in Tallahassee, FL. I graduated from Florida State University with my bachelor's in Psychology and was planning on attending grad school this Fall to pursue my master's degree. BUT ... I am now going full-time into photography!! Yay!!
I began photography back in 2018 when I took my first photography class in high school. After working in the fine art realm of photography for 2 years, I developed a passion for my art. I second shot my first wedding in March of 2020, right before COVID shut everything down, and it was a game changer. I discovered how much I loved working with people and learning their stories. Getting to be a part of the intimate, emotional, and memorable parts of someone's wedding day was a new experience that captivated me.
WORK WITH ME
So .... I entered college in 2020 assuming that I would just keep doing things on the side for my photography. I shot some gigs here and there, but just as friends needed things. Then, in 2022 I established myself as a "legit" business. I developed a basic website, set up my social media, and began my journey.
And here we are 2 years later, deciding to make the big jump and go full-time. Since making that decision, I have now experienced a peace unlike anything I've experienced before. I have trusted in the Lord to guide me and use me and my gifts to worship Him, and know this is the plan He has for me. I am beyond blessed for the opportunity He gives me to meet my couples + families and get to share His love with them.
Now that you know a little bit about me, I just wanted to thank you for being here willing to learn about who I am and where I came from. I'm excited to learn about what magic we can create together and how I can best serve you. Excited to hear from you!
WELCOME!!
Here is more about who I am away from the camera!
I met my husband Jon is 2020 when he was in the army and I was a newbie to the college scene. My cousin was trying to match make me with him, as he was one of her husband's friends, and I was not interested in the long distance thing. He was stationed in Colorado and I was in Tallahassee and it was a text/calling only dynamic for the first few weeks before we met. It was like our version of Love is Blind ... I fell for him pretty quickly. The way that he spoke to me and the connection we had was out of a fairytale. Fast forward to 4 years later, we are married, have our first cute little home, and now have our first baby girl. I thank God every day for this life that we have.
I am now a wife and mom to the most BEAUTIFULLLLL baby girl, Peyton Marie. She is such a joy. Being a new mom is definitley my new personality ... but I love it so who cares!
