About me

Hi! I’m Claire!

I’m mom to 2 young boys who rarely sit still long enough for me to take their photos… but it doesn’t stop me from trying! Stick around long enough and you’ll see snippets of them on my social media. I love coffee, reading, and being outside.

I’ve been taking photos since high school but didn’t upgrade my camera until my first son was born. Since then I have fallen in love with capturing tiny details, beautiful, candid laughs, and the emotion of simple moments.

My biggest goal as a photographer is to make clients feel confident & beautiful and capture who they are in a photo. I love to laugh, be creative, and my biggest thrill is delivering a gallery full of images you will cherish forever.
