I am a non-traditional family photographer looking to document people in a unique way.

tired of looking like everyone else?

A fresh take on family photos.

i need the details

I want to document families in a way that I want to remember my own. My boys are about to be teenagers, it really does go by in a flash and sometimes all it takes is a picture to bring you back. An expression that pulls you right in. I’m inspired by emotion, love, connection, movement and authenticity. I don't always ask for smiles and your photos won't ever feel stiff, but isn't that just the way we want to remember it all, like a beautiful dream.

I'm in love with light, simplicity and the human spirit.

What My Clients Are Saying

kind words from my lovely clients

- Corine Chen

I have known Pam for over 13 years. My very first photo shoot with her was for my engagement photos. Since then I have had numerous shoots with her; wedding, maternity, newborn, family and boudoir. Every single photo shoot has been amazing. Pam has a way of putting everyone at ease and making everything feel so easy and comfortable. Her talent is unmatched and the pictures will prove it. That is why nearly every wall in my home is covered in her photos.

"Pam has a way of putting everyone at ease."
