I'M CALLIE, A LOVE + LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER BASED OUT OF COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO.
In case you wanted to know who was behind the camera, here is a little about me. I'm an extroverted introvert, I love to travel, you can often find me curled up with a good book or listening to a playlist full of random genres of music. I love trying new food and will try just about anything at least once, and I adore animals of all kinds. I honestly feel that I'm just an excited 90's baby learning how to live and love her life.
I was born and raised on an exotic farm in a little town in central Texas by my two amazing parents. I have a little brother, amazing sibling-in-laws, and some pretty cool step-parents. I got married to my wonderful husband in 2018, and now we have two beautiful kiddos. We also have a rescue husky named Pearl who I absolutely adore.
My love for photography started in 2010 when I got my first "real" camera and started taking photos of anything and everything. I didn't truly fall in love with it until I went to college and paired it with the amazing people and experiences it came with. Now I get to call it my full-time job and it is everything I've ever wanted.

EACH DAY IS BORN WITH A SUNRISE
Sunrise Media Co stemmed from the idea of starting every day as a new beginning.
The sunrise brings light to the darkness, warmth to the cold.
It starts a new day, a new journey, and something fresh and exciting to experience.
I want to help you remember these warm, bright, beautiful new moments.
NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS PHOTOGRAPHER.
From the moment we meet, I promise that I will be in your corner. I promise to do everything I can to give you photos that you will cherish for years to come. I promise to be the extra hand, the spare backpack, your backup dancer, and be the helper for any and all reasons. I promise to treat you like a friend and above all, serve you an incredible and unforgettable experience.
MAJORITY OF YOU AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH BEING IN FRONT OF A CAMERA...
and that's okay! I am here to guide you through the whole process and give you organic prompts to give you your most natural YOU.

Callie was amazing and the pictures from our wedding were breathtaking! I had a few mishaps before my wedding, but she did not skip a beat. She's very professional and made being in front of the camera easy!
