I've been working as a professional photographer since 2016. I consider this the starting point of my profession since it was the year I shot my first wedding! That sent me down this beautiful whirlwind of making this into my career. Over the years I've spent countless hours improving my skills, cultivating creativity, and investing in the best equipment. Beyond using top of the line equipment and bringing to the table versatile experience, my greatest goal is to give my clients a warm, joyfilled experience.
I've always had a passion for art and photography has gifted me the ability to turn that passion into a career. Other than all things creative, I love exploring this beautiful world with my husband David (you may be lucky enough to meet him since he works alongside me as my second shooter from time to time). We are experience seekers and hobby enthusiasts; dabbling in rock climbing, diving, ceramics, hiking, surfing, and yoga to name a few.
Clients have described working with Grace Era Photography as... kind, warm, peaceful, creative, communicative, transparent, chill, above and beyond, understanding, empowering & fun
I hope to live up to these kind words with every client I get to work with! I view sessions as though they're full of directed moments that involve genuine emotion. This cinematic style of shooting provides clients with joyful and heartfelt memories accompanying each image. I won't just stage you, I'll give you a task, game, or direction to get that whimsical true-to-life moment.
“Grace was an absolute answered prayer for us. She not only made our engagement shoot and wedding day and the whole planning process SO easy, carefree and fun (we laughed A LOT), she also made everything feel so genuine and special. She is INSANELY talented - no secret there - but also very authentic, thoughtful, caring, creative, and highly intuitive - and this clearly comes through in her work. She made us feel so taken care of and I felt like I gained a friend by having her with us throughout the experience. She really cared about what we wanted and went above & beyond to make sure we were happy. Not to mention, our photos turned out BEAUTIFUL and she truly succeeded in capturing every special moment and emotion of the day. SO THANKFUL FOR GRACE!!!! We love her!!” — Jackie Thiam
“Grace captures your most intimate moments as they happen and makes them come alive all over again through her work. Aside from her amazing creative energy, Grace has the warmest heart and the ability to make everyone feel comfortable during a session. She truly has a natural, unrivaled talent, and not to mention an incredible personality too.”
