About Us
Emby Team ~ About Us
I am fascinated by all of the beautiful little details of life. I have a passion for documenting all of it – people, relationships, the story… especially the story. I have always been aware of taking mental note of “this very moment” and just how special it is. And now I love creating heirloom images that tell your stories. Travelling and living outside of America for over a year has helped me get a different perspective and that has opened my eyes to so many different ways of seeing stories beyond my own.
