Hi! I'm Taryn and I'm a 31 year old mama of a 7 year old boy, photographer and artist. I have also recently been a farm educator to children for a couple of years and an on and off kids sports coach. Also explorer, camper and I try to be an advocate and raise awareness for human rights. I love and need to stay busy. I have been photographing since 2016 and have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember, I've only recently given myself the time for the art I want to create. Photographs are extremely important to me especially when I have a hard time with my memory. Documenting life, documenting history. Photographs helps me remember and I also know what it's like to lose someone and not have many photos or videos of them. I want to make sure everyone gets those memories to keep forever and pass along.

Since 2016 as well I have became more engaged in politics, policy and human rights activism. In no way do I call myself an activist but one day I hope we can. I have gained much knowledge, continue to and want to grow with our communities. I do believe none of us are free until we are all free and it is most important to be apart of those creating the opportunities to progress our country and world and for it to be a better place for our children and the future generations. 

​

I am now living in Adams County, Ohio but I am based out of Dayton, Ohio and usually travel from between Columbus and Cincinnati. I would love to photograph here in the country where I am at now, it is beautiful and also go further and change up the sceneries a bit. I really want to start photographing in other states and get more and more creative with my clients.

I also want to start a project for Centering Women. Women of every place on the spectrum. Photographs and stories along with them. If you're reading this and interested in hearing more, please email me!
