Hi! I’m Thea.

I’m an analog and digital photographer based in northern California.

I grew up on a horse farm in upstate New York with my three older sisters and mom. The first time I ever held a camera was in these photos to the right when my oldest sister was home from art school in the '90s and had her canon rebel with her. Ever encouraging creativity, she put the camera in my hand and that's when I took my first 'selfie'.

I dabbled with photography here and there but didn’t pick up a camera with real intention until I started going on road trips in college. Since then, I haven't really stopped documenting the world passing me by and my loved ones in it.
