Hi! My name is Bernadette. I’m an American living in the beautiful western state of Utah with my husband, Shane, and our cat, Bailey. I’m originally from Southern California, uprooting my life there and moving here in 2022. I’m an avid outdoors person. I find the most joy in being in rugged nature exploring by myself or with friends. I thrive in deep conversation, and building connections with people who want to keep improving and growing as a human. Thanks for being here!
As a successful freelance photographer for the last 22 years, I’ve worn many specialty hats. Currently, I have a passion for combining architecture with lifestyle for boutique vacation homes, and hospitality brands. I’m originally from Southern California. I’m available for travel anywhere in the West.
With people as my subjects, I’m a natural storyteller, and most of my best portrait work has a natural candid feel. My architectural work is captured in a natural editorial style. I love to focus on beautiful details and spaces that have as much natural light as possible. My goal is to show viewers what it FEELS like in your space.
For the people and brands I work with, I want to dive in and get to know what you do first. My goal is to convey to your clients and customers the story behind who you are, and the service or product you will passionately provide them.
“Bern finds a point of view that is uniquely hers to tell a visual story. She bring in a unique perspective, and her photos almost becomes art. Those aspects set her apart from others, and make her competitive.
Bern is observant, focused, and strategic when it comes to getting the job done for her clients. She makes it happen! She has a natural way to make her subjects and clients FEEL important and happy.” -Jen Choi || Manager of Creative Design & Communications || Port of Long Beach
