Mini bio
How it started.
Tiffany graduated from dental school in 2014 expecting to take over her father’s practice. Around that time, photos on Instagram encouraged her to explore California’s national parks. She began sharing her own outdoor experiences in the hope that someone else would feel the same pull to get outside.
Finding her path.
A self-taught photographer and videographer, she built an audience by sharing her perspective on the places she visited. In her SHOUTOUT LA interview, she describes leaving the family dental practice to pursue photography and credits her early followers and fellow photographers with encouraging her to keep creating.
Taking fans along.
Her work grew into commissions for brands and tourism boards including Sony, BMW, Amazon, United Airlines, Destination Canada and Apple. She combines travel photographs with videos and teaching, from mobile photography techniques to the lenses she chooses for a trip.
Beyond the feed.
In 2024, her landscape work appeared in the Adobe-curated Photoville exhibition Moments in Time: Natural Wonders Around the World. She also joined Chris Burkard for a conversation about changing careers, followed by a motorcycle shoot on the beach.
