MEET BELLE

WELCOME, LOVERS

I’m Belle. I’m so happy you’re here!  I’m a wife, mom, photographer, and pretty much wear any other hat you can possibly think of. I’m a born and raised Alaskan currently residing in the Mat-Su Valley and loving every second. I live for spontaneous adventures, the earth under my feet, and cozy nights in cooking + a binge-worthy show.

When I’m not third wheeling at a wedding or making a fool of myself at sessions, you’ll find me grabbing coffee at my favorite local shops and hitting the road with my husband + three littles to explore our beautiful home. We choose to say yes to mostly every adventure life hands us, because life is short, precious, and meant to be lived.

This is your little legacy

Sifting through old family photos and watching home videos has always felt like a special kind of magic to me. Even at a young age, I remember getting lost in my parent’s photo albums to daydream about the good old days + little stories behind each frame. I’ve chased this passion for nostalgia and remembering how a moment felt most of my life. Knowing that I can create a little bit of that magic for others, and help tell the stories their kids and grandkids will hold onto for years to come is an honor I can’t even begin to explain in words.

Fast forward to today, 8 years into pouring my heart and soul into this business, I've been able to document some of the sweetest chapters of so many beautiful people’s lives, and have gained lifelong friendships along the way. Capturing your memories, the big, the wild and the beautifully messy is everything I could ever ask for. It’s the epitome of my dream job.

 LET’S CAPTURE IT AUTHENTICALLY AND BEAUTIFULLY, TOGETHER.

THE EXPERIENCE

FACTS ABOUT ME

NEXT

PREV

Belle is actually my middle name. Laurel is my first, but I’ve been Belle my entire life!

I’ve been married to my best friend for almost 10 years. Together we’re raising three wild kiddos.

I Doordash an embarrassing amount. I can’t be stopped.

Most days I don’t take myself too seriously. I’m a down to earth goofball and believe laughter is the best medicine.

I love creating meaningful experiences for my people. Making folks feel loved and accepted is a big part of who I am.

I can quote the entire Little Rascals movie.

I’m a big beverage gal. You can catch me with an iced coffee or london fog in hand 99% of the time.

I’m a comfort seeker through and through and live for a cozy space. Houseplants, candles, diffusing oils, dancing in the kitchen with a babe on my hip, these are a few of my favorite things!
