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!

"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
"I am so glad that Carolyn captured memories of me and my fiancé that I will cherish forever! She made the whole process so easy and made the photo shoot feel so comfortable and natural. We felt like we could be ourselves the whole time, and she was so reassuring! Absolutely loved the way the images were edited. Couldn’t be happier!! Highly recommend."
Mia + Landon
"Carolyn is one of the best photographers I’ve ever worked with!! I decided to gift my mom a family photoshoot for Mothers Day, and I knew I wanted to book Carolyn. She was so patient, kind, and bubbly with my family.
She helped pose us all to capture the perfect shot. She is SO good with children. Carolyn was making my baby cousin, who’s only 16 months old, smile the whole time. Our hour session was so efficient and full of giggles. Thank you Carolyn for the beautiful photos my family and I will cherish them forever!"
Simone Family
"Carolyn was such a fun addition to our special day. I was a pretty anxious bride who didn't love the spotlight, and Carolyn was able to make me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She makes it a fun and light-hearted experience, which makes her pictures so natural and genuine. We couldn't have asked for anything more! Carolyn is the absolute best!!"
