Hey there! I’m Paulette, a storytelling photographer and vintage fashion reseller who operates from what I like to call a “soft world”... basically, I believe kindness and authenticity make better art and better business. I’ve been doing photography for years, specializing in capturing families exactly as they are, not the overly posed, perfect versions, but the real moments that show who people actually are. I also run a Y2K made-in-USA clothing business on the side, and I have this passion project called Book of Snippets where I share vintage newspaper articles from 1912-1920 about Northeast Pennsylvania on TikTok. There’s something really cool about bringing these old stories back to life and connecting people to local history. Here’s the thing though...I have ADHD, and while it makes me incredibly creative and helps me see things differently (which is great for photography and finding these historical gems), it also means things like marketing, processing complex posting rules, and staying visible can feel completely overwhelming. That’s where AI comes in for me. I use AI to help me break down complicated tasks, draft social media content that actually sounds like me, organize my thoughts when I’m trying to explain my photography philosophy, and basically translate what’s in my brain into words that make sense to other people. It’s like having a collaborator who helps me get my ideas out there without losing my authentic voice in the process. AI has helped me balance running multiple creative projects while being present for family. I’m not trying to replace the human connection part of what I do, that’s literally my whole thing..but AI helps me with the behind-the-scenes stuff so I can focus on what I’m actually good at: making people feel comfortable, creating art that matters, and sharing stories that deserve to be remembered. I’m all about using tools that work with my brain instead of against it, and AI has been a game-changer for that.

I specialize in documentary style and creative photography that captures authentic moments rather than staged poses, focusing on family portraits, senior sessions, and creative collaborations. I work from a connection philosophy, creating comfortable environments where genuine personalities emerge. Technical planning,location scouting, lighting strategy, composition design..serves the goal of preserving real moments that matter.
