Angelia Clarady Portrait

My Story

With a deep reverence for the natural world, I spend my days chasing light through ancient forests, along rugged coastlines, and across sweeping mountain ranges. Every photograph is a love letter to the wild places that still remain.

My journey into photography began on a solo backpacking trip through the Pacific Northwest. Standing at the edge of a fog-wrapped valley at dawn, I felt an overwhelming need to capture not just what I saw, but what I felt — the stillness, the scale, the sacred quiet of an untouched landscape.

Since then, I've traveled to over 30 countries and every corner of North America, always seeking those fleeting moments where light and landscape converge into something extraordinary. I shoot primarily with natural light, often during the golden and blue hours, when the world feels most alive.

My work invites you to slow down, to breathe, and to see the extraordinary beauty in the quiet moments of nature. Each print is produced on museum-quality archival paper, ensuring the richness and depth of every image endures for generations.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me hiking with my dog, tending my garden, or planning the next expedition to a wild corner of the world.
