Meet Clarissa in Santa Barbara

Cat mom, foodie and coffee snob who loves to travel and caught the 'Aloha Spirit' for life when I lived on the beautiful island of Maui for six transformative years. Capturing the essence of you and how this moment in time feels is always in my mind when taking timeless and soulful photographs. Photography is about being in the moment and going beyond what the eye can see. I am passionate about my non profit photography work and the photography I create for animal rescue shelters. I have been commissioned by various clients to create fine art photography and have been exhibited in the lobby at the Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee & the Jewish Federation of Santa Barbara.

Three Things

  1. I love to spend time in nature, eat great food, travel and get inspired by the lives of others. I am also a voracious audiobook listener.
  2. I definitely couldn't live without coffee and my feline fur babies.
  3. My friends tell me I am a true friend, and a thoughtful and generous person with a wicked sense of humour.

Clarissa went above and beyond from beginning to the very end. She provided extensive details regarding the location, which was very helpful when you are not a local. I felt heard and understood regarding my intricate details regarding the proposal. Huge thank you to Clarissa!
