Welcome!

I’m Autumn/Photography By Hand— a lifestyle photographer, storyteller, and lover of all things cozy and creative. With over 15 years behind the camera, I believe the best photos come from real connection — not just between you and your people, but between you and your photographer, too.

I love getting to know the people I work with and making you feel at home in front of the lens. Whether we’re laughing through the chaos or soaking in quiet moments, I’m there to capture the beauty in your everyday.

When I’m not shooting, you’ll find me sipping coffee, jamming to music, snuggled up with my two orange cats, exploring art, or planning my next tattoo. If you’re into heartfelt, down-to-earth sessions that feel more like hanging out than posing, we’ll get along just fine.

Since I was twelve, photography has held a special place in my heart. It all began when I discovered my grandmother’s incredible talent for capturing wildlife. Her photographs adorned every corner of her home, filling the space—and my young mind—with quiet wonder and admiration. When I finally held my own little point-and-shoot camera, something inside me quietly stirred—a new love awakened. From that day forward, the camera has never left my side.

Thank you for coming along on this journey. Having each and every one of you here is what matters the most.
