Estée. Little but large. A candid layered cake. Curious. Evolving. Mother, Artist and Teacher.
Nothing is more energetic for me than working holistically, untethered within the Sun’s illumination. Energized by the rays of the Mojave and baptized by the sunset sermons, I had an awakening – to go into business with Mother Nature.
Editorial, moving narrative, costume design, and the business of style, have all made me a career creative providing the experience that influences the details of my compositions.
My architectural photography evolved naturally through talented interior design / builder friends and colleagues, requesting I capture the moments and mood of their work, (editorial ready). This allowed me to grow another leg shooting STRs and luxury real estate - bringing the art of story to their presentation.
I am also an exhibiting artist and community art history / art teacher.
“Not only does Estée have a knack for capturing her subject’s unique spirit, she also gives great direction. I tend to clam up in front of a camera but not with Estée. She made me feel comfortable as I found myself relaxing into the photoshoot and feeling more playful in front of the camera. It was the back and forth, responding to her direction that felt like an embodied dialogue. I couldn’t be happier with the captured images. “ - Maria Scileppi
