Hi, I’m Octavia, a Lifestyle and Portrait Photographer
inspired by cinematic love
Hi, I’m Octavia — a photographer with a deep love for love, light, and the stories that linger between moments. My work is inspired by the nostalgia of old films — warm tones, soft glances, and that dreamy feeling of remembering something beautiful. I see photography as a way to capture raw emotion, to turn fleeting seconds into timeless memories. Every image I create is a little piece of my heart — cinematic, nostalgic, sentimental, and full of feeling.

What Do I Have To Offer?
I think its important to be picky. Choosing a photographer goes far beyond a pretty Instagram feed. It's about reliability, guidance, and genuinely feeling taken care of from start to finish. Here is what you can expect when you choose me to document your story.
Guidance
From posing to prompts, I am there to guide you as much (or as little) as you'd like. Want me to be a fly on the wall? You got it. Feel awkward infront of the camera? Let's turn some music on and I will guide you through the entire thing. I want you to have fun start to finish.
Storytelling
The way you laugh, the way your kids run around, the way your partner looks at you when you’re not paying attention, those are the moments I am here to capture. I focus on the little unscripted pieces of your story. These photos aren’t just for today, but for years from now when everything feels different. Your gallery will be full of feeling, the kind of memories that only grow more meaningful with time.
Support
Clear communication, organized timelines, recommendations where needed, I'm here every step of the way. Creative concept planning, location scouting, I got you! Need someone to hype you up? I am one step ahead of you. I'll fix your hair, carry your bouquet, hold your veil.. might even (definitely will) cry with you! I want you to feel cared for through and through.
Quality
I am intentional about the way I shoot, the way I use light, and the way I edit each image so your gallery feels cohesive, cinematic and full of emotion.
