How my hobby became my business

Hi, I'm Ella

I am a native Vermonter, and recent grad of the University of Connecticut. I am currently living in Seattle, finding my footing, and excited to get working with greater Seattle clients!

After falling in love with photography in high school, I decided to officially name my photography business ShotsByElls Photography.

Nearly four years after I first began photography, I spent two years working for UConn Athletics, shooting D1 sports, and living the dream!

Where I am now...

  • Living in and loving Seattle, WA.
  • Enjoying my first mild PNW winter with a coffee always in hand.
  • On the weekends you can find me spending lots of time exploring the charm of Port Gamble, on a walk at Seward Park, or at a yoga class.
  • Working full-time at a local orthodontics office (I just love a great smile!).
  • Actively booking and so excited to meet new Seattle & PNW clients!
