Hi, I'm Paige!


I started Front Paige Photography in the fall of 2021 while attending Iowa Central Community College, where I was offered the chance to rodeo for one more year. That opportunity inspired me to continue my education and pursue a photography degree.

 

Before studying photography, I earned my bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies from Iowa State University.

​

In the summer of 2022, I began a mentorship with Leah Ried Photography, where I gained valuable experience in editing, rodeo photography, and refining my shooting skills.

​

Photography isn’t my full-time job, I also work for Iowa State Extension. Because of my full-time schedule, I take a limited number of clients each season to ensure each session receives the attention it deserves.

​

Take a look at my portfolio to explore my style and some of my favorite work. My heart is in western and wildlife photography. I have a passion for capturing wildlife and preserving the beauty of nature. I love warm, rich tones, shooting in natural light, and incorporating animals whenever I can.
