Hi, I am Tracy Orzel, your photographer.

I'm a Portland, Maine-based photographer, extroverted by nature and proficient at balloon arches. I love traveling (don't we all?) and fancy myself an OK writer.

I started as a second shooter in 2018 (great origin story: one day I told my friend I wanted to become a second shooter for weddings and she said "OMG I know a photographer who needs one. He just posted on Facebook." One hour later I was a second shooter; portfolio unseen) and came into my own in September 2019. I use a Nikon—because that's what the principal photographer gave me—and specialize in portraits and brand photography. If he handed me a Sony or a Canon, I'd probably be using that now.
