Hi and welcome to Pure + Simple Photo Co! I am Taylor the owner and the person behind the camera. A little bit of how I started on this photo journey. I began doing photography when I was about 15 years old taking pictures of nature, the animals around the house, or just random things on the side of the road.
After high school, life got really chaotic and I felt like I had no control of anything. I worked in toxic environments, was pushed around, unexpectedly lost family members, and learned college wasn't right for me.
In 2020, the middle of the Covid-19 I got tired of wasting the days away and decided to pick up the camera again. I started with taking pictures around the farm, taking photos of my family, and close friends; eventually capturing milestones for everyone. From cake smashes, to weddings to newborn sessions and everything in between. After awhile, I decided it was time to become serious with this hobby and turn it into a full time business.
I would love to share my passion with you. To me, clients are not just another client under my belt. I consider you my family. I strive to give you the best results. I take the time to edit your photos with love and compassion. Never rushing through the process.
Send me a message to get your session scheduled today, I would love to add you to my family.

"Taylor is fabulous to work with and her pictures are amazing! She took these family pictures of our crazy group over Christmas as we had everyone home for the first time in a few years! A cold front moved in earlier than expected and it was cold, but it didn't stop us. Taylor found the best spots to block some of the wind and we worked fast! The pics turned out great! Thank you, Taylor!"
Kayla Sluka
“Taylor was wonderful! Our baby girl was incredibly fussy the day of her photos. It was her nap time but she decided that day she wasn't feeling it. Despite the stress on our end feeling worried about the time it was taking, Taylor was gentle, patient, and understanding. Despite all of the set backs we were able to get some great photos that will be keepsakes. It meant a lot the time and care she took to ease both us and our baby girl. I would highly recommend Pure + Simple Photo Co.
On top of how professional and kind she was, our photos turned out amazing. I can't wait to hand these on our wall and get them printed out. Thank you again for a wonderful experience for these first time parents."
