Who I am

Holly Stevens (they/she),

a neurodivergent, genderqueer photographer based in the PNW.

At the heart of my process, I aim to capture everyday moments of beauty that connect us to ourselves and to nature. Grounded in my love for humanity and commitment to inclusivity, my work explores themes of anti-perfectionism and radical presence. Ultimately, the imagery I create seeks to evoke a sense that each one of our lives is a work of art.

“When I saw the quality of Holly's work I knew I wanted to see my kids through their lens.

They are amazing to work with - incredibly flexible, resourceful and thoughtful. You could not do better.”

—Christina H.

Sink into the moment

Sink into the moment •

Photoshoots with me are slow-paced, often including a a walk in the woods or a refreshing swim. Being photographed should feel natural and easeful, and that is exactly the energy I bring to every session.

From the very first time we meet over Zoom to discuss working together, I am deeply intentional about each step of this process——so you can feel held every moment along the way.

It would be my honor to capture your unique story, creating beautiful photographs that you will cherish for years to come.

    "Even though we’d never met, working with Holly felt like having a friend capture photos of our family.

    They made us feel so safe, comfortable, and seen throughout the whole process. And the pictures turned out even better than I expected. We can’t wait to come back for more as our family grows."

  • “Holly was not only clear, communicative, and professional, but also genuinely expressed an interest in me and my needs to be photographed. They not only affirmed my gender and queerness without hesitation but, made me feel seen in all parts of myself and created a secure environment to be expressive in the ways I desired."

  • "Holly brings such a safe, joyful, and supportive attitude and energy to the experience. I have recommended Holly to countless people, especially folks with intersecting marginalized identities, because Holly really values celebrating ALL bodies. Seeing how amazing the photos came out was simply the icing on the cake of such a wonderful and affirming experience. :)"

  • "Working with Holly is like receiving a warm hug.

    It can be very nerve wracking to do a photoshoot of any variety. Holly’s warmth, guidance, attention to detail and amazing camera skills make for a one of a kind experience. I’ve worked with her multiple times and will continue to do so to capture all my many beautiful changes through life in picture."
