Behind the Lens
ABOUT ME
I'm an easy-going, positive person who values kindness and loves capturing photographs that evoke emotion.
Inspired by the love, beautiful nature and kind people in the place I call home - the Outer Banks.
I was born and raised in Poland and came to the United States in 2015 to take part in a student exchange program during college. I thought it would be a great opportunity to travel and visit places I often saw in movies. Little did I know that I would meet my husband, fall in love, and build my future here on the Outer Banks. The best things often happen unexpectedly... I am happy to call this island my home.
I bought my first camera to document my journey in the US.
I had no idea that it would lead me to where I am today. I spent countless hours learning the craft of photography - lighting, posing, editing, and I continue learning to this day. It's extremely fulfilling and joyful to document people's special moments. Positive feedback from couples and families are the biggest reward of all.
My clients are amazing and I couldn't do it without them. I'm so grateful!

PHOTOGRAPHING MOMENTS OF PURE MAGIC
Maya, our pet Doberman. She's such a sweetheart. Her favorite thing are - snuggling on the couch, chasing a ball, and walking in the woods.

I love being outdoors, whether that is on a hike, camping, gardening, feeding our chickens, or simply sitting on the beach. I just want to be out there enjoying all of the beauty that nature has to offer!
TRAVELING / NATURE

Me and my husband met during my summer trip to the Outer Banks and we've been together ever since. He's my best friend, biggest supporter and always makes me laugh. And... we're expecting our first baby in spring 2024! We couldn't be more excited! Life keeps getting better!

I love living on the Outer Banks. It's a peaceful and gorgeous place where you can reconnect with the nature and the time seems to slow down. I'm lucky to live in such a beautiful landscape that offers a stunning backdrop for photoshoots. It's a real gem!
