Hello! My name is Tori Wild, owner and photographer for Wild Photography in Atkins, Iowa (just 10 minutes west of Cedar Rapids on Highway 30.)
I’m a mom to four {Wild} kids, Parker- 18, Kaiden- 16, Gabby (Gabrielle)- 14, and our youngest, Quinn – 7.  I’m married to my best friend and high-school sweetheart, Jeremy, who is my biggest supporter.
My passion has been art from the time I was a little girl.  I signed up for as many art and photography courses that were available in high school, as well as a few in college.  Of course, this was all PRE-DIGITAL age…. but I’ve always loved any avenue that gave me a creative outlet. I took a different path with my career and started a part-time job in college which led to a 16 year corporate career managing inbound and outbound sales programs, traveling all over the U.S. managing Fortune 500 accounts.
When my daughter turned 2, we made a huge decision and I began staying home. My business started organically from photos I was taking of my kids and I started as a Mom-Tog!
A few fun facts about me –
My major vices are Pepsi and White Chocolate Mochas with Blonde Espresso.
I love to cook!! If you are a personal Facebook friend, you’ll see why it’s hard to keep on a diet in my house… I love to make meals for my family and when I have time, I also love to bake. Kitchens (Outdoor or indoor) are my happy place.
We have 4 dogs who we are obsessed with — I’ve always been an animal lover, so it’s no surprise that we have a house full of little furry loves- Our yorkie, Kash, is a 15 year old little old grump, and we have 3 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels – Bella, Ivy and Enzo.
I love home decorating — Joanna Gaines is my spirit sister…. I love farmhouse style and am a huge collector of Rae Dunn Pottery (which you will see a hint of in the studio!) 🙂
I feel like the luckiest person in the world to be allowed to work in a job that I love and to be given the gift of staying home with my crew.   Some of my best friends are people that I’ve met in this industry, and it’s truly a blessing to work with my clients.
Contact me at wildphoto4@gmail.com with any questions. I would love to talk to you about planning a session to capture these fleeting moments that pass by all too quickly in life.
