My story

Just a brunette dreaming of sun, lake views, and French villas.

Hello! My name is Karisa Grimstad—a PNW native with European wanderlust, currently living in Chelan, WA, but often found (physically or mentally!) in the San Juan Islands. I’m an early riser, coffee-fueled CrossFit fanatic, and book connoisseur who can’t resist throwing a good party with my Chelan crew, but will often disappear into my home oasis where I can relax and recharge with our mountain views and family time.

When I’m not behind my camera, I’m with my sweet family creating memories, holding onto the little moments in between the milestone ones. We feel incredibly blessed to live the life we do—swimming, skiing, hiking, and spending time in the home we dreamed up, designed, and built while living in Germany. 

I’m still trying to convince my kids that taking pictures is, in fact, a job—but we’re getting there. 😉
