About

Hi, and thank you for visiting! I’m Laurie, and I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, CA. I’ve been taking pictures for most of my life, but only started becoming truly obsessed with it in the last two or three years. It has come to be so important to me, and such a big and meaningful part of my life. I love all kinds of photography, be it travel, architectural, landscapes, portrait, self-portraits, or nature. Each one seems to provide a different type of outlet for me. I absolutely love going out shooting and just losing myself in it. There’s nothing better. Except for the feeling of actually touching somebody with my work.

I graduated from the New York Institute of Photography.
