I'm tori
Hello There!
I am so glad you are here. I'm a photographer + portrait painter, wife, and mother residing in the center of PA.
A story that tells its tale without words, is maybe the most impactful to me, and it is an honor to wrestle with that daily, telling stories through photos + paint. It is such a gift to lovingly document those I work with, like a glimpse of their legacy. My hope is that all who cross my path feel loved just as they are, that they realize they too have beauty in and around them worth remembering.
MY EXPERIENCE.
My love of art spans through the entirety of my life which led me to obtaining a bachelors degree in K-12 Art Education. I taught Elementary art for two years and adored that role. However, I found myself pursuing the need to create more for those around me, which has led me here for almost 7 years now!
PHOTOGRAPHY CAUGHT ME.
Art was always my muse, but I fell even more deeply in love with photography, tripod and film camera in hand + long nighttime exposures on buzzing city streets as a college student. The act of freezing moments has always fascinated me and getting to show others the artful moments that are in their life is my joy. Your real moments are beautiful and that is what I am after!
And painting?
Well, painting is my longtime love. To me, paint evokes history through the brushstrokes and layers, and continually enhances how I view the world around me.
Paint+Photo are my perfect pairings to create opportunities to share more stories, for my beloved clients and in my own life.
You can find more testimonials and reviews on Google + Facebook.
If we're the right fit, I so would love to work with you.
You just let me know whether by photo or paint! Be sure to check out my gallery + Investment pages for both photography + painting!
