AS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER, I BELIEVE IN PHOTOGRAPHING THE LITTLE MOMENTS
I’ve always loved the little moments that make up a life. Becoming a mom, wife, daughter, and sister has made me appreciate them even more. There’s just something really special about being able to hold onto a moment through a photograph, especially the ones you never thought to take.
Ironically, I’ve never been very comfortable in front of a camera myself. I’ve learned that I feel the most like me when I stop worrying about how I’m supposed to look and just... be myself. So that’s what I want for the people I photograph, too. I want you to feel comfortable around me, to laugh, cry, be weird, and forget that I have a camera in my hands.
I’ve also always loved traveling and experiencing all the amazing things this world has to offer. If I get to see a beautiful place, try something new, and share that experience with a couple who gets just as excited about it as I do, I’m all for it.
At the end of the day, I just want to make photographs that feel like you. The kind you can look back on years from now and remember not only what was happening, but exactly how it felt to be there.
THIS IS ALL ABOUT YOU
but here is a little about me
I'll be more than just your photographer
From the moment we meet, I’ll be in your corner. I’ll be the extra hand, the spare backpack, the backup dancer, and whatever else you need along the way. More than anything, I want you to feel like you have a friend by your side, someone who genuinely cares about you and your experience from beginning to end.

MORE ABOUT ME
If we’re going to spend one of the biggest days of your life together, I think you should probably know a little bit about the person behind the camera.
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, some pretty great in-laws and step-parents, and a wonderful husband I married in 2018. These days, we have two beautiful kiddos and a rescue husky named Pearl who we absolutely adore.
Outside of photography, I love to travel, try new food, curl up with a good book, write, listen to music, and craft. I’m always looking for somewhere new to go or something new to try.
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 college, when I got to pair it with some amazing people and experiences. Now I get to call it my full-time job, and it is everything I’ve ever wanted. Getting to travel, meet new people, and experience more of this world along the way is just the icing on the cake.
+ I'm an avid LGBTQ+ supporter, ally, & member

+ I believe pineapple belongs on pizza
+ I went to college for film studies and studio art and still love to paint

+ My favorite color is green
+ I collect vintage cameras
+ Thrifing is my favorite form of shopping
Volunteer work means a lot to me because it gives me the chance to use what I love doing to help others. Some of the organizations I work with support people who are facing terminal illnesses, while others focus on raising awareness and inspiring community support. No matter the cause, giving my time and energy fills my heart. I truly believe everyone deserves to have their memories captured and their stories shared, and that every organization working to make a difference deserves all the care and support we can give.
I’ve had the privilege of working with these incredible organizations and have seen firsthand the impact they make in people’s lives. Each one is doing something meaningful and full of heart, and I’d love for others to take a moment to check out their pages, learn about their missions, and consider showing their support too. Even the smallest gesture can help their work reach further and touch more lives.

WORDS FROM OUR
COUPLES
jenna & austin // estes park, colorado
"We love Callie! We've gotten endless comments about the amazing photos from our engagement session and wedding. Callie is timely and professional, and she's just fun to have around. We were worried about our wedding feeling like one giant photoshoot, but Callie made sure we could enjoy the day and have genuine/candid moments captured. We will absolutely be keeping her in our back pocket for future photos."
