Meet the Photographer

Hi there! I'm Malae, an easy going Utah born native. My family relocated to the Houston, Texas area in the Spring of 2019. I love to travel and I can't stay in one place for very long before my travel itch kicks in. My favorite place in the entire world to visit is Italy. Creating art has always been a huge part of my life and it took me awhile to figure out that making photos is my favorite thing to create - other than my beautiful children, of course. I have three adorable, full of personality, little girls. I'm married to a charming, passionate, and extremely good looking man and I'm pretty sure we share the same brain 95% of the time. My family is my biggest love and my biggest inspiration. I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts Photography from Brigham Young University. My favorite description I’ve heard of my photography style is that it feels homey. What a compliment! I love variety in images, so there is a high chance we will create light, creamy, airy images as well as moody, low lit, emotional images. 

What to Expect

I am a storyteller through my images. Capturing real, raw, authentic connections are most important to me. My goal is to create images that showcase that. Depending on where we shoot, we may do some adventuring. Those are my favorite kind of sessions! My favorite shots are when I am capturing your own interactions as if I'm not even there. Don't worry, I will guide you and help you know what will look best. Be ready to feel relaxed, look beautiful, and have some fun.
