Emma’s work spans intimate portraiture—capturing families, seniors, and couples with an honest, documentary-style approach, to creative direction and visual storytelling, as well as editorials, fashion and headshots. She works for the media team behind Girlxfriend LA, a women-owned and run tattoo shop in Los Angeles, creating content for both the Instagram and TikTok.
She was also the still photographer for Sanctuary, a New York City-based documentary directed by Autumn McAlpin that explores the intersection of queerness and inclusivity within spiritual spaces.
