Hi! I'm Bella
Born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, I was basically born with a camera in my hand. With parents who taught me the importance of enjoying the simple moments, its showed me how to appreciate the simple moments full of joy.
I never realized how much a camera could change my life. From shooting alongside other amazing photographers to just talking about photos constantly... good luck having a conversation with me where photography dosent pop up... Capturing moments to save forever and watching other people on their happiest days has changed my life.
I'm a Photographer who loves capturing the joy in the world. This groovy, joyful, adventure driven, coffee obsessed photographer wants to capture your life and joys through my camera.
1.
I drink too much coffee
This means I show up to your session with so much energy that were going to have a blast the entire time! 10 hours wedding? I got you! 1 hour session session? Were going to have a blast!

Born and raised alaskan
I've lived in Alaska my entire life, what better to have an Alaskan pro during your session? Mosquito attack? I'll have bug spray! Sketchy weather? I have a back up plan! Freezing cold? I will always... ALWAYS have hand warmers.

i care
A lot!
I love my job and the fact that you chose me to be apart of your session brings me so much joy! I will make sure you drink water, your make up is always on point, your hair stays flawless, and that your having a blast!
I'm not like other photographers...
I wont make you stand there a pose in that super uncomfortable position, I will make you jump, spin, twirl... but stop when you get dizzy... My goal is to make you leave in pain.. That came out wrong... I want your face to hurt so bad from laughing and smiling at the end of your session. I will sing random songs, quote random movies and throw out random jokes so that you laugh.
At the end of the day, you should be leaving happy and feeling like your session was made for you. Uniquly for you. Capturing all your joy.
The fam
You only see me during the session, but here's my team behind the lens.
My wonderful husband, the one who in my wedding vows I vowed to give him the last Avocado. My love, my life.
Joy, my spirit animal. The definition of 'mans best friend.' Most the photos you see of her she always has her big ol smile. She's a professional hugger, surfer, and ice cube lover.
Acadia, the craziest of them all. This weirdo loves to talk back and sit in the front seat. Her blue eyes always win her some treats kisses. She may have no spatial awareness, but her cuddles make up for her sitting on our faces.
