My brief story

Hey there, it's great to meet you! My name is Grace Orbon-Emmelot.

I have enjoyed capturing life's beautiful moments as a professional photographer for more than a decade. It's been an amazing journey so far with all the opportunities photography has given to me. I am also a proud mom of four wonderful children and happily married to someone who shares my love for photography and travel. These days I call the serene countryside of Norway our second home. Here, I continue to pursue my passion for storytelling through photography, writing, and documentaries. I try to learn and grow every day and make each day count. 

Travel Companion

I like to travel smart and pursue an authentic experience. I understand that travel is not just about taking photographs; it's about the essence of travel: partaking in a singular and unique experience, not for the "gram" but for yourself.

Let’s skip to the good part.

I am so amazed by how the kids manage to walk a distance of 15km, or almost 9 hours, in the snow. We are blessed with good weather and quite fortunate that the northern lights have appeared even though the moon is too bright. Though I'm the only one who's crazy to stay up a little bit longer into the night.

This is one of the inexpensive ways to enjoy the outdoors with family, as everything is so expensive here. Apart from food and gas, nature is free. Some degree of discomfort will remind you to appreciate every little thing.

A trip to the mountains in the middle of nowhere is a fascinating and, at the same time, exhausting experience. Behind the great images and videos, it's strenuous. It is far from perfect, like the photos and videos. Our travel is not perfect, and I do not like certain parts, but what there is not to love. I am with the most important people in my life through moments of fun and difficulty.
