Travis and Emily’s relationship started around the same time that Bella Tiamo began back in 2011. A few years and a wedding later Emily went from being the tag along on a wedding day to a crucial part of the Bella Tiamo Team. A husband and wife team has a special dynamic that is hard to find in a solo shooter, or 2 videographers who have never worked together before. We are never duplicating each others shots or getting in the way of each other. We are working as a well oiled team complimenting each others strengths.

I am suburban lifestyle and portrait photographer, weather enthusiast; married to a wonderful husband and mother to two precious little boys.
