About me

Hi! I'm Taryn and I'm a mama of a 6 year old, photographer, farm educator to children, sports coach and artist. Also explorer and camper. I love to stay busy. I have been photographing since 2016 and have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember, I've only recently given myself the time for the art I want to create. Visual art will forever be my go to. Photographs are extremely important to me especially when I have a hard time with my memory. Photographs helps me remember and I also know what it's like to lose someone and not have many photos or videos of them. I want to make sure everyone gets those memories to keep forever and pass along. The styled and planned or the lifestyle candid type of sessions. I'm here for you.

I am based out of Dayton, Ohio and usually travel from between Columbus and Cincinnati. I would love to go further and change up the scenories a bit. I really want to start photographing in other states and get more and more creative with my clients.
