Storyteller in South Central Kansas
Hey there, I'm Hollie Marie, a full time photographer, a wife, and a mother to four wonderful children. I live on my husband's family farm in Norwich, Kansas just west of Wichita. I moved to Kansas in 2012 after living in California and Las Vegas, NV for my entire life. I wanted to seek adventure, I wanted to see the world through my own lens so to speak.
I had a passion for working with children. I am currently finishing up my final year as an elementary school teacher to pursue my dreams as a full time photographer. I love that I still get to work with children and build connections with kids, but help them see their strength and beauty at the same time.
YOUR EXPERIENCE IS AS IMPORTANT AS THE PHOTOS WE’LL CREATE
The secret to portraits is to get to know each other beforehand
It didn’t take long, till my creative hobby got noticed by friends and neighbors from the community, who wanted precious family moments captured in a similar, earthy, cinematic way. Since I knew them well, I could easily focus on their unique quirks and family dynamic.
This is an essential step that I’ve kept with all my clients. Before we agree to work together, we'll meet in person or have a few online calls, to get to know each other. It’s all about building trust prior to getting in front of a camera.
I know how much you want to hold on to every second
OUR LITTLE ONES ALWAYS GROW UP TOO FAST
I know how much you want to hold on to every second
It feels like only yesterday you found out that you’re expecting your baby. Nine months flew by, and you welcomed your newborn into the world. A few sleepless nights, and they’re already crawling, then walking, then running. You wish you could freeze time, so they stay little and curious about everything, for a bit longer. But time doesn’t stop, and all you can do is save each memory through a photo, and revisit it weeks, months and years from now.
