My Story

Hi y’all, I’m Rosie

I was in third grade when I got my first camera—a disposable one. I’d spin around and around until I was dizzy, snapping light-headed pictures of wherever I landed. I was enchanted..

Photography has a way of pausing time. It shows what is real and illuminates the magic in everyday moments. When I take photos, I’m looking for something true, honest, and unposed..

Coming from a large family and being the youngest of six, I have very few photos of my childhood. When my kids grow up, I don’t want them to feel the same. I want to leave them a chronicle of their childhoods—the messy, unposed, truth of their growing up is a gift I intend to leave with them. A photograph holds onto something otherwise fleeting, a memory that can be cherished long after the moment passes. 

Sharing the gift of memory with other families is a privilege I don’t take for granted, and getting to enter into another family’s space and capture a sliver of their lives is a great joy for me.
