ABOUT

Koa strives to reveal the essence of who and what she finds herself in conversation with. She documents with presence to connect, evoke and reflect the beauty and light that she sees in spirit and the world.

When Koa was eight she found a disposable camera. She felt that the universe spoke to her in a language of light and color, and that she could respond through photography.

From that first disposable she started carrying a camera, often two, with her everywhere. Koa shot film and worked in the darkroom.

Her profession began in 2010 when asked to photograph an event, then a wedding, then a portrait session. Quickly photography moved from a hobby to her main trade and income source. Aside from one darkroom class in high-school, she is self-taught.

Koa has worked professionally as an international photojournalist as well as a wedding, event, maternity, family and portrait photographer.
