Are you looking for some art that will inspire your soul?


My name is Emma, and I am a portrait and couple's photographer based in Oregon. I thrive off of creating art, and sometimes it inspires me to write poetry. Several years ago, I had the honor of participating in a journalism program as a writer and photographer. Now, I teach English Language Arts, and poetry has always been dear to my heart. I love the creative arts!


I taught my husband how to use my camera, and we went out to find some wildflowers on the side of the road. After the photo session, I went home to edit these photos. After editing them and looking at them for hours on end, I felt inspired to write a few poetic one-liners. I want to not just be a photographer, but a storyteller as well. These are the results - I hope they inspire you as well.
