About Me

---

My name is Bailey Lamar Ortiz,  I get to live the wonderful life of a traveling photographer. Documenting everything from surprise proposals , to large music festivals to the Kentucky Derby. I truly have been blessed to share such special moments with people from all walks of life. My passion for photography runs deep and being asked to capture occasions in your life that mean the most is a feeling I will never grow tired of. I have always aspired to work as a fashion photographer and creative designer for editorial work. I love the challenge of composing elements within a photograph to keep the viewer intrigued and attracted. I worked in horse racing for nearly a decade, photographing races all over the country and doing portrait work on the side. I branched out on my own and from there have not stopped challenging myself. I have photographed weddings, fashion lines, rodeos, concerts,  cattle, police departments, commercial branding, and the list GOES ON.... I pride myself on not singling out a category, but rather.. tackling them all. 

Besides my life as a photographer, I am an old soul, a proud mother to an English Bull Terrier named Douglas Lamar, a person who is moved by music, an outdoor enthusiast, a hunter, a wanderer overcome by the relentless travel bug,  and a dreamer. My family means everything and always will, I appreciate all of you who have supported me in my journey as an artist and couldn't do it without you.

I love what I do with every fiber of my being. I love meeting new people, families, artists, entrepreneurs and dreamers alike. Lets create art together and capture those moments you never want to forget. 

Thank you for visiting my site. I can't wait to work wit
