About Angela Pike ~ Photographer and Owner of Tender Touch Photography

Welcome and Thank you so much for coming to this page to learn a little bit more about me.

I am often asked why or how I got into Photography.

Photography came to me at a time when I needed it most, a time when the world around me didn't look and feel so beautiful. I picked up a camera almost twenty years ago and some would say I never put it down. I discovered with camera in hand I was in control of what and how I see people and the world. Learning to see the beauty in the people and places around me. My world began to fill with beautiful bright light, bold colors, soft textures, creativity, beauty, love, laughter and kindness. I knew this was what I was created to do. I wanted to share with everyone what the camera showed me, beauty in all shades, outside in the world and on the inside of our hearts that our loved ones see.

I fully believe each person was created to use their specific abilities and passions to bless others, no matter the gift or industry. I am certain photography is mine. I have been so blessed to share in capturing all of those precious moments, helping them look back on and relive some of their happiest moments, some of those once in a lifetime events that they can forever shared with generations to come.

Who am I:

I have many titles, I am a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, granddaughter, aunt, niece, friend and photographer. I reconnected with my high school sweetheart in 2010 and we were married in 2012, bringing me back home to Northwest Arkansas from Northern Kentucky after twelve years. Together we have six children, five boys and one girl. We also have two dogs, two birds, three grandsons and one fur grandson. We are a big beautiful blended family. Fun-loving, caring, and crazy at times, not always perfect but perfectly together. I lost my mother in 2016 after a six-year fight against breast cancer. I understand how precious life and family can be.

Being told I was made to be patient, I have several wonderful humans to thank for that gift. I love being creative, I’m very passionate about my photography and although I can be shy at first, I’ve been known to talk some ears off once I’ve gotten to know you.

My sincerest of hopes is that when others see my work they can feel all the joy, the love, and my passion. I’ve met some truly amazing people through my work and I hope to keep meeting more amazing people who let me take a small part in capturing their biggest moments. I love watching each of my friends, clients, and family grow with each milestone.

I feel blessed every day!
