The girl behind the lens.

Hey, it’s Ave — your photo friend.

I’m 23 and doing the work I love. I picked up my first camera in high school during the pandemic, shooting friends out of boredom and quickly realized I had found something I couldn’t put down. That curiosity grew in college, where I graduated from the University of Oklahoma in May 2025 with a bachelor’s in Creative Media Production and a minor in Digital Marketing. It was there that my appreciation for the art of film on the big screens deepened and I developed my cinematic approach to photography, capturing moments like a story unfolding rather than forcing poses.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me leaning into anything cozy: coffee shops, afternoon tea with a book, baking sweet treats, celebrating the seasons, exploring beautiful places my camera can’t ignore, hanging with my loved ones and pups, or sitting quietly with Jesus.

I’m also recently married, navigating this new season of life while chasing my creative passions. I sorta kinda love this little life + family we are building.

Photography has taught me to notice the things people often miss... the quiet glances, the small gestures, the light that slips through just right. That’s the magic I try to capture in every session, and what makes me fall in love with this work over and over. I would be honored to capture the magic of your little moments.
