"We loved the dreamy and timeless aesthetics she offered in all her photos while capturing the essence of every single moment authentically."
The start of your first day, the first page of your chapter, the start of forever.
The beginning.
TO CHRONICLE DAY ONE...
Why you love in the first place.
Why you started.
...TO REMEMBER
To stumble upon your wedding album 50 years later and instantly be beside you on day one. To remember beside you. To remember where they came from and
why they matter.
FOR YOUR KIDS & GRANDKIDS...
In the form light and shadows, of paper and ink. To transport you to a moment, a second...
a lifetime.
...A TIME MACHINE
To remember what we looked like, but to remember what we were like.
Because we are all stories in the end.
BECAUSE IT'S NOT ENOUGH...
Where we document your story.
...WELCOME TO ETHER & SMITH

inspiration
Growing up as an only child, I had to get creative. Although I never had any imaginary friends, I had imaginary worlds. Worlds where I would be crawling through secret passageways in ancient cities, but in reality, it was a sheet thrown over the dining chairs, or I would be repelling down a castle to escape intruders, but in reality it was me jumping down from the couch. I wanted to be a mad scientist, a space explorer, a secret agent, archaeologist, a painter, and so on and so on…
My love for discovery, observation, wonder, mystery, and storytelling made me who I am now; a historian for lovers.
See what’s currently inspiring me here…

Office Mates
Loves food, cuddling, and scratches. Watches their humans play video games. Are always in the same room together but are never affectionate with each other. Likes to chirp at birds from the window. Sleeps a lot, yet loves to run up and down the hallway meowing. Listens to their humans talk to them too much (especially the female human).
