PORTRAIT photographer
I bet I am the photographer for you!
you're here. you've finally found her! the photographer that creates magic out of your memories. Hi, I'm Courtney! a strong believer that there's a story behind every adventure and that every stage of life deserves to be remembered, more importantly c e l e b r a t e d. I specialize in bringing your unique and special moments to life. We'll start with a couple looking at me photos but after that it's all movement and chemistry for me. If it's recreating Pinterest images you are after I am probably not your girl (and that's totally okay!). If you're a wild + adventurous family who doesn't mind the sand between your toes or splashing in the lake + capturing all those in-between moments
I can’t help myself. I love my job + my life!
i'm a laughaholic.
i'm a sucker for details.
the more colorful the better!
Can you tell?
i love black and white.
the rawest form of love is caught in the in between moments
IT'S ALL IN THE movement.
laughing, splashing + adventuring is what we do!
my family is my greatest treasure
"Thank you so much for being part of our day! Travis and I both LOVE the pictures that you shared and are so glad that you were able to capture this day for us! I just wanted to let you know how delighted I am with the pictures that you took!"

My number one goal during our session is to tell your story authentically while making you comfortable to do so! Share those quirky little features with me there's nothing that makes your story more YOU! Incorporating movement and natural elements into your session is a passion of mine. After we knock out the looking at me photos we let your love run wild with wind in our hair, the sand between our toes + the hike to an epic location making memories you'll never forget - all on display right there in your home!
adventure + experience
Lets do more of that!
I provide you with a once in a lifetime experience. More than just photographs, together we create lasting memories documenting an irreplaceable time in your life story. The only thing better than our session itself will be the time spent with your family + friends reminiscing as the years go by. Whether you choose an heirloom album, extra large luxury prints for the walls or plan to fill that special 5x7 frame on your nightstand the importance of printing your photos will make a lasting impression on every guest that visits your home.
