Photographer, Film Maker & Artist based in British Columbia, CA.
Having grown up in and out of foster homes, due to her mothers struggle with addiction, Tarah learned how to navigate a life in chaos, while still being able to develop a profound relationship with her mother. Tarah knew early in her life that her story was important, and that she was gifted the ability to navigate challenging relationships. She wanted to share her story and the journey with her mother in order to highlight the challenges and blessings that come with learning to find your way through addiction with someone you love. With an eye for filmmaking and photography, she realized that making a documentary was the most intimate way to let an audience in, so she set herself on this path. Using money from her modelling career, she began putting herself through filmmaking courses and bought her first professional camera in 2002. In 2004, her mom called her and said she had hit rock bottom and that she may not be around much longer. Tarah flew herself and her boyfriend home to start filming the documentary “To the Moon and Back”. Tarah continued capturing her story with her mom for 16 years until its completion. "To the Moon and Back" is currently in the post production stage with a release date of January 2025
