Hi, I’m Pauline!
Here are some quick facts:
I was born and raised in Fort Collins, Colorado
I’ve been into photography for about 10 years & 2 years as a professional
I’m a barista for Dutch Bros Coffee
Cyclebar is my favorite place to workout & recharge
I love to ski!
I’d consider myself an introvert... unless you give me a margarita and a camera
I was a brave and imaginative girl, always with something crafty in hand—chalk was my favorite. I’d spend hours with neighborhood friends filling the street with color and imagination, turning sidewalks into canvases. When I wasn’t creating, I was out in nature with my family or friends—skiing, horse back riding, biking, roller blading, skateboarding, playing with my black lab — in the Colorado sun. I was the little girl that knocked her front teeth out right when my adult teeth grew in, and when it snowed you would find me making snow angels.
Growing up, photography found me in middle school, and I ran with it. I had a cute little Kodak camera that my parents bought my for Christmas. I loved capturing random events from my brothers mountain bike race - to high school basketball games. I eventually upgraded to a Canon Rebel, which in my eyes was the most valuable thing on this planet! I took it everywhere with me, without wanting anything in return. No money, just experimentation and the excitement to show people the photos i could give to them. Not until I was halfway through my college degree in interior architecture, i realized, photography was the only thing that gave me that feeling of purpose in my life, and i consistently loved to do it. In my early 20’s i learned what anxiety and depression was, and it really took a toll on my life. The only thing pushing me out of those dark times was the people who loved me, and my photography business. Still, i struggle with anxiety and depression, and confidence dosn’t come right away. It’s been a journey—one of self-discovery, growth, and learning to see the beauty in myself so I could help others do the same.
You might only see myself as someone who just takes pictures, but i see myself as a dedicated, selfless women, who loves to make people feel seen, heard and changed by the images i can give back to them. I am willing to go the extra mile, and spend the money, just to make sure you are happy.
To this day, with every session, my goal is to create space for you to feel seen, celebrated, and beautiful. Whether you're marking a milestone or simply pausing to capture this season of life, I want our time together to feel special—because it is. You’re not just getting photos; you’re getting an experience, a handful of unforgettable (and beautiful) photographs, and a moment of stillness.
Enough about me!
