Maternity Photographer in Chattanooga and Beyond

Real Moments, Beautifully Captured

I’m here to catch the real stuff—the laughs, the quiet glances, the goofy moments, and everything in between. Whether it’s just you or the whole crew, I’ll help you feel totally at ease so we can create photos that are not only stunning but feel 100% you.
It's less 'photo shoot,' more 'fun hangout with evidence later.'

Portraits, Elopements, Births, and Everything In Between

From cozy maternity sessions in your home to wild elopements, big wedding days to quiet, life-changing moments like birth and motherhood—your story deserves to be told with heart, creativity, and a whole lot of authenticity. I’m here to capture those genuine connections, raw emotions, and unique vibes that make your life yours.

Whether it's a brand-new beginning, a long-awaited reunion, or simply celebrating where you are right now, I’ll help you turn real life into timeless photographs that feel just as meaningful years from now as they do today.

Every image I create is a reflection of your personality, your story, and your people. Take a look through my portfolio to see the memories I’ve been lucky enough to capture—and when you're ready, let’s make some magic of our own, whether you’re in Chattanooga, Gatlinburg, North Georgia, or wherever your story takes us.
