Ada (she/her)
Born in a Polish village. Raised in Southeast Ohio. Living in Portland, Oregon.
I am a film-forward documentary photographer & visual artist. I have had a camera in my hands since I was 7 and I have been taking photos professionally for over 12 years.
To me, documentary photography means making images with a reverence for the present moment. Deeply appreciating life exactly as it is; us exactly as we are. With that, my goal is to capture the poetry, spirit & energy of the people and events that I am documenting.
I am drawn to the in-between moments that hold the story of who we are, the connections between people & how light can make a mundane moment feel sacred.
I enjoy working with creatives, weirdos, healers, & tender hearts. Folks who value authenticity over perfection and true presence over performance.
I would be honored to make photos with you.
