Hi! I'm Paige.
When I was a kid, you'd find me running around with my dads handycam, ready to document everyone and anything I found remotely interesting. Eventually he gifted me my own camera and that sparked my love for photography and filmmaking.
I'm a mom of two, and since they were babies I've been documenting their childhood in an intentional way. I'm often creating cinematic home videos out of our ordinary moments, and constantly looking for ways to create art out of the meaningful things that I know I'll want to hold onto as time passes. The art of noticing things and preserving family archives is something I'm deeply passionate about.
I come from a lineage of hobby photographers that documented their lives and created family archives dating all the way back to the 1930's. I have all of my family history, scanned and organized intentionally on a single USB, to be copied and passed down for future generations. These archives have let me see my loved ones from entirely different perspective. My love for storytelling and my unwavering passion for documenting life is so deeply inspired by my family history, and my work has become rooted in preserving my journey through motherhood and womanhood.
In 2023, I took a huge jump and stepped away from my career as a Nurse to follow my passion as a full-time photographer and creator. Photography has always been apart of my life, but it was my time working in hospice that lead me to finally take the leap to a more creative path. I was face to face with the reality of how short life truly is, and how valuable photographs become with time. My time in nursing gave me a whole new perspective on life, humanity, and time, and has greatly impacted the way I move through this life.
Since then, I've fully embodied a creative lifestyle, where I can be a mother, create, share my ideas, travel, and meet incredible people along the way. I love sharing little peeks into my life over on Instagram, so come say hi!! @paigeamyphoto
