Getting to Know

My journey...

2020

What began as just an outlet from my full time job and capturing my friends + families special moments, quickly turned into something so much more! I loved being apart of my community in a positive way rather than as a paramedic.

2020-2023

2024

Coffee anyone? 

2025

This year was kind of a slow year! My partner and I welcomed our little girl into the world and have spent the vast majority of it soaking up all the glory of her!

Emily Buttron Photography blossomed. I began second shooting weddings and taking on my own weddings! Since 2020 I have photographed multiple families and couples, many of which I photograph yearly! 

Prior to capturing love and families, I graduated Paramedic School in late 2019. I began my paramedic journey in Stockon, CA through the thick of Covid - which eventually lead me to pick up the camera!

things you might not know

01. Yep, I’m that girl with a Disney tattoo — the castle, Jack, Oogie Boogie, and more. What can I say? Disney will always have my heart.

02. My boyfriend doubles as my best friend and business partner — he’s often by my side at sessions and while he isn't at weddings with me anymore; Daniel is just as fun!


03. I have major travel dreams — Greece, Germany, and Italy are all on my bucket list — but I’ll always be a homebody at heart.


04. Turkey, pie, and medium-rare meat just aren’t my thing — I’m fully committed to the well-done life! Sorry, not sorry!

05. You’ll always find me reaching for a glass of sugar free white or a glass of red wine over any other type of wine. Sav Blanc Made by Chicks is hands down the best sugar free wine!! (Try it out, you won't regret it!)


Because there’s more to me than just the camera

Your story deserves to be felt, remembered, and beautifully told. I can’t wait to hear what you’re dreaming up.
