ABOUT STUDIO L
Studio L Photography was founded in 2007, but in reality, it was born in the magic of the darkroom. That's where I discovered the artist in me, amid the developing trays and finished photographs hung to dry. While spending the first 10 years of business as a portrait and wedding photographer, I was also simultaneously building a catalogue of almost two decades worth of fine art photography.
After 15 years in business, 2022 is a season of change for Studio L. I’ve realized that there's so much more I’m called to do as an artist. Working with art enthusiasts to bring art into their homes feels like a natural progression towards what I’ve been secretly dreaming of for years.

Now that you know a bit more about me, let's talk about you and your art needs! It's time to bring the beauty of art into your space and I'm here to help you with that.
