Karen Pearce Photography bio picture

About Karen

My name is Karen Pearce, and I am a contemporary natural light portrait photographer.  I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts, and have worked for years as a graphic designer. I often find myself surfing the internet for hours looking at different photography, fine art and graphic design websites.

I have always had a love of photography and took classes in high school and college.  At family get togethers people always would hand me their camera and ask me to take photos for them. I got serious about photography as a profession after my first daughter was born. I became frustrated with my point and shoot camera, it would not take pictures fast enough. I wanted to capture the emotions I was seeing on my daughter's face with my eyes through the lens of a camera. 

Contemporary portrait photography inspires me - it's not posed, it's real.  I try to capture emotion, personality and expression in my photographs - these are the qualities that I believe make a photograph memorable and treasured for a lifetime.

The Wagstaff Family

The Wagstaff family is always on the go. I love how their family portrait turned out.  Their baby girl is so sweet.

Rylie

Rylie arrived much sooner than her due date.  She was so tiny when I took pictures of her.  This was my first newborn session as a professional photographer.  It was fun, and she had so many cute bows and blankets.  What a doll!
