My name is Emma Deese and I am a beginner photographer in the Wilmington, NC area! (moved from a teeny tiny town in the NC mountains that also borders the North GA mountains!)

​

I began photography as a child in middle school, just playing around with an old camera I found in the hallway closet. I was a quiet kid who didn’t put herself out there, so photography was a nice way to express my creativity while also staying in my own world. Today, I am continuing to grow in and learn this art, and I am having the time of my life!

 

My main interest in the photography world is wildlife and nature. My heart and soul feel most full when I am with animals and surrounded by the beauties of this planet. Everything from stars at night to the ants crawling at our feet are  miracles, and I’m humbled every day to be around so many of them. Besides wildlife/animals, I also love to photograph candid moments! Living in the moment is a big philosophy of mine, and I love being able to capture other people living this way through my lens. Check out my Portfolio page to see what I’ve captured so far in the animal world and the people world! Or see some tidbits of my adventures below!

 

This website serves as a portfolio and blog hybrid. When I created it, I had a goal to create a fun place where I can showcase my work as well as give people passing through a place to feel seen, heard, and included. There are a lot of little details to the website you may find, so feel free to look around - you’re welcome to stay as long as you’d like!

 

Thank you so much for being here, and congrats on making it to the end of my rambling! I hope you have an amazing rest of your day and that you find everything you’re searching for. Remember to enjoy the little things, and always tell people you love them.
