Bio
Mallory Parkington: I am a light-writer.
Growing up in a small town in Western Maine I spent my summers at the lake and winters in the mountains. Nature was very much engrained in my life. We didn't watch TV and certainly didn't have cable. After graduating with a BA in Communications from University of New Hampshire, I found myself craving more culture and worked for WIRED Magazine in San Francisco for almost 8 years.
Upon returning to the North East in 2006 I once again immersed myself in project management for about a year before we welcomed our first child into the world. After 3 years at home with 2 small children I recognized I needed more personal growth and launched my photography company. I specialize in portraits but find passion in documenting life around me.
Whether it's studio lighting or natural lighting I'm always looking for my visual expression and light is my tool for storytelling. I prefer natural settings and casual sessions and am always looking for new ways to convey inner beauty and personality.
In September 2014, a mother commissioned me to document her stunning daughter at age 13 to showcase at her bat mitzvah. The horse images for this show came from this session photographed at a horse farm in Rye, New Hampshire.
I currently reside in historic Portsmouth New Hampshire with 3 children ages 3, 5, & 7 and my husband, James and can be found at malloryparkington.com
