Environmental portraiture and fine art wedding photography
Hi. I'm Vera, a Pacific Northwest-based photographer with a passion for capturing the human experience and showing you at your most radiant self. For over a decade, I've been honing my skills as a generalist 'documenter of humanity'. My work is an eclectic mix, from the intimate, spontaneous moments of weddings to the wild energy of adventure sessions in off-the-beaten-path landscapes.​
I don't believe in following trends or fitting into boxes or photoshopping your pores into obscurity. My approach is about respecting your authenticity first, but also experimentation, dynamic storytelling, and creating portraits that make you feel things. My style is a little filmy but true to life, with a focus on showcasing the environment as much as the human element.
