Meet Rebecca

I’m an aspiring physician-scientist and a graduate of Duke University. Before I was on the pre-med track, I dreamt of becoming a music producer, mangaka, animator, and, of course, a photographer. The ability to blend my passion for photography with my journey toward becoming a physician is a rare and cherished blessing that I don’t take for granted.

In all that I do, I strive to exemplify Christ's love and grace. Through photography, my hope is to make every person feel seen, known, loved, and beautiful—just as they were created to be. Whether you're celebrating a wedding, a milestone, or simply a moment in time, I want you to feel the deep care and intention behind every photograph I take.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…” – Jeremiah 1:5

My Style

My photography is deeply rooted in natural light, capturing moments in a way that feels both authentic and emotive. I work with the light around me to create images that have a timeless quality, yet still feel personal and real. Each photograph is infused with my personalized touch of warmth and color, giving it depth and richness that brings the scene to life.While I rely on natural light, my approach is also documentary-style, focusing on the raw emotions and fleeting moments that make life so special. I aim to capture the true essence of each scene—whether it’s an intimate glance or a burst of laughter—through an emotive, storytelling lens. I want the images to evoke the feelings you had in those moments, preserving not just how things looked, but how they felt.

My Philosophy

Here's a little of what I am thinking when capturing your photos:

01 Authenticity First

I believe in staying true to what your day, your setting, and your emotions really looked like. While good natural lighting and thoughtful color editing are essential, my goal is to make sure the photos feel grounded in the truth of the moment. Authenticity is everything!

02 Emotions Matter

Photography is about more than a pretty picture. It’s about telling a story, and that story is told through emotions. I focus on those raw, candid moments—the laughter, the quiet glances, the spontaneous joy. My aim is to capture the feelings you felt, not just the way things looked.

03 Enjoy the Process

The more comfortable you feel, the more natural and authentic your photos will be. When we work together, my goal is to make sure you have fun, feel comfortable, and trust that I’ll be there to document your most important moments in a way that feels true to who you are.

How I Got Into Photography

I’ve always had an eye for capturing moments, probably because I was the oldest in my family and always the one with the camera. It wasn’t anything formal at first—I just had an instinct for knowing when something would make a good photo. In 7th grade, I joined my school’s photography club, and to my surprise, I was the only one there! My teacher took me under his wing, and I started learning the basics—things that stuck with me over the years.

Throughout high school, life got busy, and photography took a backseat, but I always kept a camera with me. Then, for my 18th birthday, my dad surprised me with a "big-girl" camera. I started taking pictures of my friends’ graduation ceremonies just for fun, and something clicked. I realized that photography wasn’t just about capturing an image—it was about creating art, telling stories, and freezing beautiful moments in time. From there, I knew I had found something I truly loved.

If you're looking for a photographer who will truly listen to your vision, create meaningful images, and capture the beauty in the real moments of life, I’d love to be a part of your story.
