Hi, I’m Em!

I’m the owner and photographer of Focus by Em- a cozy, vintage-inspired studio located in the heart of Hudson, Wisconsin. I’m endlessly inspired by real connection- whether it’s between couples deeply in love, families laughing together, or people simply being themselves. My two French bulldogs and cat keep life playful, and I find beauty everywhere- from quiet Midwest streets to the timeless architecture of the city. Hudson itself, with its charming Victorian style, is a perfect backdrop for the kind of work I love to create.

I’m a lover of vintage film, storytelling, and subtle, beautiful details. My photography blends traditional techniques with a timeless aesthetic, aiming to create images that feel personal and lasting.

At Focus by Em Photography, I offer a full studio experience rooted in emotion and elegance. Whether you’re coming in for a classic portrait, a relaxed family session, a branding shoot, or a moment of love with your partner, my goal is to make you feel seen and celebrated. Every image is crafted with care to preserve what matters most- real connection, beautiful light, and stories that deserve to be remembered.
