I love telling stories with my camera. Family photos against the backdrop of Nature's glory is my love language. Newborn photos in the cozy cocoon of your home is my love language. Photos of a spring wedding in a meadow is my love language. Telling the story of your business to show your ideal clients why they should work with you is my love language.

My passion for photography started when I was a child and my mother gifted me my very own camera. I used my camera to document the family farm, taking photos of the gardens, orchards and pets. From those simple beginnings I carried my camera to Vermont, Valparaíso, Barcelona, San Francisco, Boulder and finally Northern California. During those 20+ (!) years behind the camera I worked for various print publications (El Mercurio of Valparaiso, The Barcelona Metropolitan, El Mensajero in San Francisco, The Argus Courier of Petaluma). I also worked for event coordinators taking portrait, travel, event, sport and lifestyle photos and I worked for two professional photographers as their second shooters and studio managers. During these years I realized so many things - first how much I loved photography for it's combination of storytelling and art. I also realized that I preferred photography to writing, which is a longer story you can find here. And finally I realized that my favorite type of photography was rooted in the emotions, connections and the milestones of the people around me.
Autumn came to my new MAT and gym space, Resilient Body to photograph for our website and marketing. She was a joy to work with, from start to finish, I never felt rushed or stressed. She was able to capture great shots and balance the natural lighting issues so that my photos reflect the warmth of the space. I'd recommend her for any type of need, from professional shots to family photos; she's a gifted storyteller via the camera.

Working with Autumn was wonderful. She captured my son in a lively, joyful way in a great setting and lighting. She also managed to capture a head shot for myself in the same session. She has techniques to bring out the natural side of your smile that gives authenticity to the portrait. Highly recommend her services!

Autumn was the photographer at a wedding I attended and I was so impressed I feel compelled to write a review. It was such a delight watching her work! She had a joyful enthusiasm that was truly infectious. She expertly wrangled the boisterous wedding party and made it so fun for everyone.
And of course the photos were wonderful!
