I am the mother of four beautiful children and the wife of an amazing husband.
I am a writer, nurse, Seint make up artist, and photographer!
I love thunderstorms, my goldendoodle, hot chocolate, and storytelling.
My Story......
I have always been a storyteller. I started writing (and telling stories) when I was 12 years old. But to be able to write, I need to be able to feel deeply. And life? Well, life took some difficult turns and it was too hard to feel and therefore too hard to write. It was not long after that I found photography. Or maybe photography found me. As a single mom I had longed to have unique portraits that showcased my children's spirit, but couldn't afford it. Thus my journey to take these portraits myself began.
I began telling stories through a lens.
And I fell in love.
Fell in love with documenting my children's lives.
Fell in love with the art of photography.
Knowing how fast time slips through one's fingers, the need grew to share this with others. I wanted to provide the opportunity for others to have life's beautiful moments captured as well.
And I wanted to provide this at an affordable price.
Moments are fragile and fleeting.....but photographs offer us a way of holding on to them a little longer. They provide us with a way of remembering that is a treasure worth the investment. So with the encouragement of my loving husband, friends, and family, my journey began......Bella Vita Photography by Elizabeth was born in 2011
Over the years I have been blessed to capture special moments and memories of families, couples, friends, seniors, and more. This life is beautiful. Yes, there are hard times, but even in those, blessings can found. In the easy and hard, I want to not only capture those moments, I want to tell your unique story!
From my heart to yours....don't let today's moments become tomorrow without having photographs to tell the story. :) If not me, find another photographer. If not another photographer, take the photos yourself. But capture the moments. Be present. And don't forget to be in the photos yourself.....
Blessings,
Elizabeth
