I'm Courtney, a wife, a mother, champagne enthusiast and an incredibly detailed and intentional human by nature.
The heart of my work is emotional preservation—capturing the feeling of the moment, not just the event itself. When my couples look back at their images, they feel—not just remember. I want their grandchildren to see those same images decades from now and feel like they were there, too.
I believe in the quiet power of emotion and the sacredness of human connection to create images that are soft, joyful, and feel naturally effortless.
First and foremost, as a wife and mother, I value capturing the connection between loved ones.
Walking hand in hand, a flowing dress, a veil in the wind always spikes my creativity.
Playing with light and shadows and showering my frame with golden light fuels my artistry.
"I was so sad when she was finished for the night and hugged us good-bye, not because I wanted more pictures but because I truly enjoyed having her there. She felt like another friend there to support us on our wedding day."
