Photography for people and their lovely memories

hi, i’m talia.
the person behind the lens.

I’m a wedding and portrait photographer currently based in Arizona, though I’m always chasing the kind of light and love that can take me anywhere.

My background is in literature and storytelling, and that’s exactly how I approach photography: as a way to preserve emotion, intention, and all the quiet in-betweens that make a story feel real. I’ve always been drawn to the nostalgic nature of photographs, the way a single image can hold time still and bring it rushing back all at once.

I’m inspired by romanticism with a little grit, by the intimacy of unguarded moments, and by the beauty of relationships in all their forms. I gravitate toward warm tones, windblown hair, deep belly laughs, and the kind of imagery that feels lived-in and true.

My work blends the curated with the candid, editorial in mood, documentary in soul. Whether I’m capturing a wedding, a portrait, or something entirely your own, my goal is to reflect you as you are: layered, luminous, and deeply human.

Through imagery, I hope to create something that feels timeless, tender, and just a little bit like a love letter to the life you're living.
