ABOUT PNW PORTRAITURE

I’m Kristin, the photographer behind PNW Portraiture. After a 15-year career as an editorial photographer—with work featured in National Geographic Traveler, Lonely Planet Traveler, and other leading publications—I’ve settled in the Anacortes area with my husband to focus on my artwork and local portraiture projects.

Before pursuing photography full-time, I spent eight years in branding and design in the San Francisco Bay Area. A native of Sweden, I grew up between the Scandinavian subarctic and Texas, a journey that shaped my perspective as a visual storyteller.

For me, the camera has always been a wondrous key—opening doors to meeting people and stepping into their lives for a moment. It’s the honor of a lifetime to tell their stories through photography.
