The heart behind the camera

I’m Whitney.
A storyteller at heart.

I’m a Charlotte-based photographer drawn to connection, quiet beauty, and all the little things that become the big things.

My creative path began with studying music education—majoring in viola and minoring in voice—and grew through a decade in old-time portrait photography in Myrtle Beach. I’m also a full-time hairstylist and makeup artist. Today, I bring that eye for detail and love of people to weddings, elopements, and celebrations near and far.

I’m a Virgo, a wife, and a mother to a beautiful daughter. As a wife and mother, I know how quickly a moment becomes a memory. It’s a privilege to help you hold on to yours.

A few things you may be wondering

Your wedding photography questions.

When should we book?

Ideally, inquire 8–12 months before your wedding. If your date is closer, please reach out to check availability.

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes. I’m based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and photograph destination celebrations internationally. Share your location and plans for a custom proposal.

Can we request specific photographs?

Absolutely. We’ll discuss the people, moments, and details that matter most to you during planning.

How do we reserve our wedding date?

After we’ve confirmed availability and your collection, a 50% booking deposit reserves your date. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your wedding.

Will we receive every photograph?

You’ll receive a thoughtfully curated collection of edited photographs that tells the story of your celebration.

Are package add-ons available?

Yes. Add-ons are available for all packages. Tell me what you have in mind when you inquire, and we’ll discuss the options.

What if the weather changes our plans?

We’ll adapt together, exploring alternative locations or an indoor setup so we can still create beautiful photographs.

Do you offer 30-minute sessions?

Regular sessions allow time to connect, settle in, and create a fuller story. I don’t offer standard 30-minute sessions, but occasionally announce 20–30 minute mini sessions on Instagram.
