Hi! I'm Claudia. I love my family, my rescue pets, and finding the best hiking trails. I grew up in Los Angeles but I've been calling Cleveland home for years! My photography endeavors began in 2007, capturing live concerts and family portraits. I fell in love with preserving a wide array of expressions and fleeting, precious moments. In 2013, I was a photographer for The Walt Disney Company in California. Some of my favorite photographs include candid expressions, silly dog faces, and detail shots.  

We donate sessions to non-profit organizations, and have volunteered for local and national animal rescues for emergency rescue operations.  We spend a lot of time researching and traveling to various natural landscapes and birding spots. It's our passion to stay connected to the natural world around us, and share discoveries with you. For any wildlife/landscape photographs sold, we donate to wildlife and environmental causes.

 

When it comes to portraits, I invest time in getting to know each individual I work with to get the most out of their session (this includes pets!). I additionally invest a lot into constantly furthering my education and knowledge - certifications, creative challenges, and conferences.

 

After I receive your inquiry through my website, we can set up your session directly or do an optional phone/video chat. This is where we can get to know each other, and I'll explain my workflow. Your photos should be preserved for years to come, hence why I am a big advocate for top quality printing. From inquiry to print order, I'm here each step of the way.
