About Emmy - based in Charleston, South Carolina

Photography has been my lifelong passion and calling. I’ve always seen beauty everywhere, even where others might not take a second glance. As a little girl, I would pick bouquets of dandelions and leaves and collect pockets full of rocks I thought were pretty. As I got older, I continued to find the simple, wild, natural beauty to be the most inspiring kind. The Japanese have a word for it - wabi sabi - which roughly translates to an aesthetic of appreciating beauty that is imperfect and impermanent in nature.

 

My journey as a photographer has taken me to breathtaking landscapes, intimate celebrations, and heartwarming encounters, each leaving a lasting mark on my artistic vision. Through my work, I try to evoke emotions, ignite curiosity, and celebrate the beauty of life in its purest form. Telling stories in a way that can't be said with words.
