Moments you
Can Feel,
Memories you
hold dear

WEDDINGS, couples, lifestyle, film

My approach focuses on documenting your love and your day as it unfolds. The natural moments between you and your loved ones & all the memories you'll hold dear. I strive to capture you as you are and will be with you every step of the way to capture your unique story!

Pieces of Your
Happiest Day

details of your grandma's heirloom, letters written to your lover, the last moments with your best friends before walking down the aisle, the celebration of you saying "I do!", tender moments with your loved ones, your aunt & uncle belting love story & everything in between. When you allow yourself to be present for each other and the ones you love, you create a space to fully embrace all that the day is - unscripted, genuine, passionate! 

Inquire About Your Day

This is what it's all about: These are tangible memoirs of your story, photos that take you back to your wedding day

THOUGHTFUL DETAILS

Once you have inquired, I will reach out to you within 24-48 hours! For my wedding clients, we will set up a time for a discovery call. During our discovery call we will get to know each other & I would love to hear about the engagement story/couple story and your vision for the wedding! Following our call, I will craft a bespoke package that is uniquely tailored to your wedding day. If we decide we are a good fit, I will send over a contract & a 50% deposit is required to secure your date! 

(01) Inquire + Book

A Look At Our Time Together

Once the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, the planning begins!!! I will send over a wedding questionnaire to get more in depth with some details to help our planning! I am a BIG Pinterest girl and would love to start boards with you! From here till your wedding day (even after) I am your girl! I’m here to help style you, pose you, help you figure out all the little details. If you do not have a planning coordinator, I would love to help you build a timeline. We will do a rough timeline 3 months from the wedding date & finalize it the month before!

A Look At Our Time Together

If your wedding package includes an engagement session or if you add one on, we will plan out an engagement session for you two prior to the wedding to get you comfortable in front of the camera as well as allow us to get to hangout before the big day!

We are so incredibly lucky we found Carolyn through a friend to do our wedding photos! While planning a wedding can be a daunting and time consuming experience, Carolyn made the whole planning process a million times better and easier!
She handles her business with professionalism, ensuring all considerations of the day are well thought out, but most importantly she is an overall genuine person you want to be around which we believe is so important in a vendor & photographer! She made all our family, bridal party, and guests feel welcomed and comfortable for photos, but also adhered to our schedule and plan that was discussed at length leading up to the wedding.

Lastly, her talent is outstanding from both her creative eye of photos, to her editing style. She truly captured our day and the emotions beautifully and made our wedding gallery unique to us! She took our ideas and made it our own which feels so special! We are so blessed to have such beautiful moments captured and will treasure the photos and Super 8 film for life!

Sabin Wedding 

Choosing Carolyn to photograph our wedding was the best decision I made—second only to marrying my husband. I’ve known Carolyn since elementary school, so having her by our side all day made everything even more meaningful. She brought so much joy, laughter, and calm to our day, and captured moments we will treasure for a lifetime.

Carolyn is incredibly talented, kind, hilarious, and genuinely one of the most joy-filled people you’ll ever meet. Our guests kept telling us how amazing she was—whether it was effortlessly organizing big family photos or giving small but impactful direction to make each shot perfect. She was truly our biggest hype woman and made us feel so at ease in front of the camera.

If you're thinking about booking Belovedjpeg, stop thinking and just do it. You will be so glad you did. Carolyn is everything you could hope for in a photographer and more.

Lauren + Donovan

"We cannot say enough good things about Carolyn! Carolyn is such a light and can bring out a smile in anyone. Not only can she do that, she makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. It was not just my husband and I that felt this, but our extended family as well! Carolyn was open to all of our ideas and has such a creative eye! She cared about our vision and how we wanted our wedding day to be captured. Carolyn truly made our Pinterest inspo board come to life!"

THE BRADLEYS

"Where do I even begin? Carolyn is absolutely incredible. Being in front of a camera can sometimes feel awkward or intimidating, but not with Carolyn. From the second we met her, we felt completely relaxed, comfortable, and so excited to have our photos taken. Not only was her presence a gift in itself, but her incredible talent blew us away. Our wedding photos are something we will cherish forever and I’m so thankful we found someone so talented and just overall amazing. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose her to capture our big day and we would do it all again as she’s worth every penny! There is truly no one like her. Forever grateful for you Carolyn<3
