A lover of the visual arts and the girl who always had a wall of photographs in her bedroom. I'm always giddy with excitement to share these captured moments with friends, family and now my clients. The emotions my photographs evoke is one of life's greatest pleasures for me.
In the last year I have explored my creativity and discovered a great joy for photography. I am both self-taught and also studied at Tri-Community Photo Program in Covina, CA. I shoot in natural light and my style can be best described as photojournalistic. My goal is to capture you and or your families' lifestyle, uniqueness and tell your story. The session time is our play time so fun accessories and snacks are encouraged!
Currently available for photo sessions in LA and Orange County, but I love to travel so please do inquire for pricing outside these areas.
I live in LA with my life partner Kris and enjoy cooking, travel, wine tasting, reading and the beach.

I just wanted to share photos of yours truly here on Trude’s blog. I had the pleasure of participating in this photo swap and photographing her and Caroline, but I was nervous about seeing photos of myself (first photo session for me) and I must say that I was just being silly, so silly!
I’m blown...
