hi, i’m pauline

she/her

Also known as @folkfotos on Instagram, I'm a seasoned professional photographer, having taken photos for the last 8+ years. I specialize in documentary style portraiture along with capturing unique photos for my branding clients by helping them stand out from the crowd and feel confident in themselves. When I’m not moving the hair off my client's face during a session or retouching photos behind the computer screen, I’m probably hanging out in the garden with my toddler and chihuahua. I’m a lover of magical light, T Swift, home design, and thrifting for vintage gems. I can’t wait to meet you and hear your story!

More about me

Love Notes.

“Pauline was welcoming and patient with my family for our newborn photos. In the vulnerable time of postpartum, she made me feel so at ease and carefree in this transition time allowing us to just be, us. Her images are real and raw and beautiful!”

— Dayton

Newborn Session

“I have done three brand shoots with Pauline and would absolutely hire her again and recommend her to anyone. She is skilled, incredibly talented, and her creative eye is next level. She knows how to make you look good. She understands angles and shadow. Her work has helped me elevate my brand as I scale my business and I continue to use photos even from our first shoot, because they have become so iconic to my brand's visual identity.”

— Ayesha

Brand Session

“Pauline is a gem of a human. She is extremely professional and also makes everyone feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. Fantastic communication and the end results were so incredibly beautiful.”
