Hey, I'm Emily!
I am a lifestyle family photographer based in Austin, Texas. I launched my photography business, then called Matching Grace Photography, in December 2017 at the same time that I announced to the world that my family was pursuing domestic adoption. Today, more 6 years later, my family has been blessed by the completion of 2 adoptions: a frozen embryo adoption and that of our 2 year old baby girl. What began as a small fundraising effort for my family's adoption dream has evolved into a thriving business that is so incredibly special to me.
Celebrating the love of families is what drives me. Every milestone from that baby bump and first newborn squish to those senior year memories; I love to be there for them all.
My goal is to capture the love you have for your people...the pure and authentic connection...the moments in time...the perfectly imperfect life...every unforgettable memory. It's an absolute honor to be there through life's journey with you.
"Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth
of a second.”

“Gosh I almost don’t want to let this great secret out! Emily is such a find! She is great with kids, easy to work with, down to earth, and reasonably priced. Her turn around time from shoot to delivery of final edits is super quick. We love her and use her 1-2 times per year for the last 5 years.”
