A note from Tara, Owner & Lead Photographer at Roots of Life Photography:

Hello and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

Roots of Life was founded in 2010, and since then, it has been my privilege to document the most meaningful moments in the lives of my clients. Photography has given me the incredible honor of bearing witness to some of the most emotional and unforgettable experiences—something I truly treasure.

I specialize in fine art boudoir photography, but the heart of my work is about capturing the authentic, intimate moments and the unique details that tell your story. I’m drawn to moments filled with love, laughter, and joy, where every tear and smile tells a story of its own. After over 14 years in business, I still find myself moved at every boudoir session, and nothing rejuvenates me more than hearing how much my clients cherish their images.

My clients understand that photography is more than just a picture—it’s a piece of art that reflects the depth of their emotions and their journey. They trust me to tell their stories with care, heart, and attention to detail.

Thank you so much for stopping by. I can’t wait to hear your story and capture your unforgettable moments.
