Hi PNW lovers! I am so happy you found me ♡

My name is Celene

I’m your local Seattle photographer, dog and plant mom, fried chicken fanatic and zombie obsessed friend. Whenever it comes to embodying my photography style, I always say

A little moody but warm – and a whole lot of love.

THE HEART & THE STORY BEHIND SEATTLE INK & PAPER PHOTO

I think my love for photography can be dated back to my first ever digital camera - Nikon Coolpix circa 2005. Ever since then, I always had a camera on hand taking photos of whatever sparks inspiration. Even as point and shoot cameras became outdated as cameras on cell phones improved - being able to take amazing photos was always important for me.

 I’VE ALWAYS HAD A CAMERA ON HAND...


I'll use my phone until the battery dies. That's me. I am that friend that is constantly swatted away from taking too many photos over dinner, an event, someone's birthday...you name it. 

I graduated with a BA in Fashion Design where I built my career and network working for the big leagues in Seattle like REI, Eddie Bauer and Tommy Bahama. Now I work for a big tech company working on licensed apparel while doing photography on the weekends. I never imagined that my journey would lead me to where I am now. Connecting and collaborating with so many creatives in all aspects of this industry.
