Hi, I'm Bailee

A photographer, bee enthusiast, and serial creative based in Northern Colorado.

I picked up my first camera when I was fourteen. My dad had bought one, and I instantly found myself drawn to it. I spent hours walking around my family’s cattle ranch photographing wildlife, foliage, natural textures, and small details that caught my eye. I eventually entered a few of those early photos into the county fair and walked away with a Grand Champion ribbon. That moment really solidified my excitement for photography. From there, friends and family started asking me for portraits, and I quickly realized how much I loved photographing people.

All through high school and college, I kept learning and creating. I studied Public Relations & Media Studies at the University of Northern Colorado, with a minor in Art & Design. Being surrounded by so many talented creatives pushed me to grow, and I watched my work improve quickly.

What I enjoy most about this work is the connection. I get to capture real moments and help people see themselves the way others already do. One of my favorite parts of a session is showing a “sneak peek” on the back of my camera and watching their eyes light up as they say, “Wait… that’s what I look like?!” Those reactions get me every time. Seeing someone realize how beautiful they truly are is incredibly special, and all I’m doing is documenting what’s already there.

My editing style shifts depending on the session. Some images shine with bright, natural colors, while others feel more powerful with a darker, moodier tone.

I am grateful every day that I get to do what I love. I cannot wait to work with you and create photos you will be proud to look back on for years to come. Thank you for being here, and I cannot wait to meet you.

Warmly,

Bailee
