In every fleeting moment, there lies a story waiting to be told—a story of love, connection, and the beauty of life's journey. As the founder of Rose Swan Photography, I'm not just a photographer; I'm a mom of two, a devoted wife, and someone who understands intimately the joys and challenges of both falling in love and raising a family. My passion is to capture these moments, preserving them as timeless treasures for you to cherish. Whether it's preserving the giggles of your little ones or capturing the tender moments between partners, my mission is to create authentic, enduring images that resonate with emotion and spark curiosity. I aim to not only document moments but to convey the emotions that make them unforgettable.
That's why I approach every session with a deep sense of empathy and understanding, creating a relaxed and comfortable environment where you can be yourselves. I'm here to connect with those who, like me, hold a deep appreciation for the fleeting moments—the laughter, the tears, the embraces—that shape our lives. Whether you're a couple beginning your journey together or a family embracing the joys of parenthood, I strive to capture the genuine warmth and love that binds you. Together, let's create memories that will become cherished treasures for generations, adorning your home as printed heirloom keepsakes, a constant reminder of the love and joy you share.
my favorite
things:
Milano, Italy, captivated me with its rich history and vibrant culture. Yet, the allure of Italy extends far beyond, from Rome's ancient wonders to Venice's romantic canals. Seattle, WA, and the pristine wilderness of Alaska also hold a special place in my heart for their untouched beauty and lush greenery.
Indulging in fig goat cheese with Lesley Stowe's raincoast crispcotti, especially the cranberry hazelnut or the peach and pecan crackers, is a true delight. They're so good on their own too! Plus, any charcuterie board loaded with cheese and gourmet crackers never fails to satisfy my cravings.
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll often find me in my yard, tending to my beloved rose garden. Among the array of blooms, my favorite is the Francis Meilland—a delicate white rose with blush pink edges, renowned for its exquisite fragrance.
It’s hard to choose just one—I honestly just really love a mix of things. Japanese is probably my favorite, but I’m also always down for Italian, Indian, or Mexican. Tempura, tacos, pasta, butter chicken… it kind of depends on the day.
One of my favorite parts of this job is showing clients their galleries and hearing, “I can’t believe you captured this”—especially after a session that felt chaotic or uncertain. With my marketing background, I’m always thinking about the full story—what this moment will feel like years from now, how it’s framed, how it connects. I love helping people see the beauty in what they thought was just a regular day.
My daughter, son, and husband hold the top spots in my heart. They are my inspiration, my pillars of strength, and my most treasured bonds. And our puppy Teddy makes our family complete. He's not only adorable but also loves to dish out affection, filling our home with so much love.
