About

Woman in a red top holds a vintage Minolta film camera up to her face against a light blue backdrop.

Crescelle Mae Ecijan is a freelance documentary photographer and independent multimedia journalist. Her freelance documentary work is photojournalism-forward, prioritizing accurate storytelling. The goal of her archival documentary sessions are to preserve seasons of life, for families and their future generations to be able to look  back on for many years to come.


When she's not writing or freelancing, you'll probably find her repotting plants, making CHamoru and Filipino dishes, reading classical literature or books about food and agriculture, or rewatching her favorite rom-coms based on the season for the thousandth time.

 

These are what my sessions look like...

Clients Say

I loved every minute working with Crescelle. She kept us organized and helped with coordinating outfits so we were completely prepared. She created lots of ideas beforehand which allowed the shoot to flow naturally and be something fun we could all do together. Our photos are warm and full of the love & life we feel. I would recommend her over and over! She was a dream to work with.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Crescelle Mae for our documentary photoshoot at our farm back in August, and she was nothing short of phenomenal. My children can be a little shy, but Crescelle has such a clam, sweet presence that they immediately felt at ease–before long, they were playing and being their true, unique selves, which she captured so beautifully on camera.
