Emily Little

Owner

Emily grew up in Port Angeles, WA where she fell in love with the mountains, rivers and lakes surrounding the area. The past 10 years, Emily has been traveling all over the world working as a multi-day rafting guide on rivers in Oregon, Idaho, Nepal, and Chile. Since rafting is seasonal work, Emily spent her winters working at bakery in Hood River, OR. She learned the art and science of baking and how enjoy the quiet, early mornings spent creating beautiful products.

After meeting her future husband while raft guiding in Chile, Emily ended up staying in Chile during covid where she honed in her enjoyment for baking. She had to be creative with limited access to supplies and found the exploration of ingredients stimulating to her creative side.

Emily and her husband, Wawi, moved back to Port Angeles the summer of 2021 to start Buena Luz Bakery. Going back to her roots with new found loves and passions has made Port Angeles seem like a whole new town. Emily can not wait to see where the next few years of Buena Luz Bakery takes her.
