Living in the Pacific Northwest gives much opportunity for photography moments. Opportunity to capture nature and wildlife has become my place of solace.

Passion is the driving force behind every great artist, and in the world of photography, it is no different.

Photography is about capturing the essence of a moment, freezing it in time, and inviting others to experience the same emotions and beauty. It is an art that requires patience, observation, and an innate ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary. It is through this commitment to the craft that photographs transcend their stillness and become windows into moments long gone.
Passion fuels me to explore new techniques, experiment with different lighting conditions, and venture outside my comfort zone to capture that one perfect shot. It is this passion that enables me to see beyond the surface and delve into the soul of subjects, whether it be a landscape, wildlife, or a fleeting moment in time.
It is the obsession to keep learning, growing, and improving, knowing that there is always more to discover within the world of photography.
Beyond the mechanics of the craft, passion also fosters deep connections between photographers and their subjects. . The connection of photographer and subject is reflected in the images, allowing viewers to feel the emotions and see the stories unfolding before them.
At Margaret Waddell Photography, expression and storytelling is my motto. It is a way to preserve memories, evoke emotions, and ignite a sense of wonder.
