Hi! I’m Maddie, the artist behind Afterimage Studio. I’ve always been drawn to creativity that feels personal and full of heart — work that tells a story without needing explanation. Creating is how I connect, reflect, and find joy, and I carry that mindset into everything I make.

Afterimage Studio is an extension of that — a space where moments are captured with care and art is created with meaning.

An afterimage is what stays with you after a moment has passed — the feeling you carry with you without even realizing it.

Afterimage Studio was created from a love for real moments and meaningful art. Through photography and painting, my work is focused on capturing genuine emotion and the quiet beauty of connection. I’m drawn to moments that feel natural and unforced — the ones that make you smile when you look back at them because they feel honest and true.

Everything I create is done with intention and care. Whether it’s a photoshoot or a painting, the goal is always the same: to preserve moments that feel joyful, grounded, and lasting — art that continues to mean something long after it’s made.
