Hello, my name is Pataathla Sutterlict. I am 23 years old. I am Yakama, and Winnebago. I live in Yakama Washington.
People would describe me as a bright, happy, and an outgoing person. I am very family oriented and love to meet new people. I am very good at getting people comfortable with me, as well as trying new things! I have an eye for creative shots so bare with me.
As a growing Indigenous Photographer, my indigenous community will always be the reason why I am inspired. As a young resilient youth, my goal is to be able to show my community and other Indigenous youth how beautiful our culture and people are with just one image.
Interests
Pow Wow Dancing
I began Fancy Dancing at the age 8 years old. I love to dance to the music and be around the atmosphere of the pow wow. I enjoy traveling to pow wows with my entire family and dancing together. Being able to have this opportunity with my family is so special to me.
Sports
I have so much enjoyment when it comes to sports. I participated in Cross Country, Basketball, and Track. I traveled all around Washington for different tournaments and still participate. I was given the opportunity to run Cross Country and Track for Lane Community College. My passions have always revolved around sports.
Traveling
I have traveled all around the world with my family. I love to travel, and have been to several different states and countries such as: Hawaii, Italy, Canada, and even Washington D.C. I love the different atmospheres and memories that come along with traveling.
