Introduction

Hi! I'm Cory. :) My primary goal is personality focused photography! I always want my clients to feel comfortable and relaxed leaving a session. I love working with all different types of people (and pets!). Getting to know my clients and bring out their personalities is the best part. I love capturing moments as authentically as possible. I want my clients to look back at their photos and feel the warmth of their child's smile, see the love in their partner's eyes, or remember the energy and emotion behind their performance. I've been capturing memories professionally for 15 years and have been lucky to experience almost every style from weddings to concerts, families to events, and so much in between. The important common factor is capturing lasting memories for my amazing clients.

I’ve had the honor of having Cory capture two major life moments for us - our engagement photos & elopement photos. She made the entire process a breeze from suggesting locations, responding promptly, to making you feel comfortable during the shoot. If you’re looking for an experienced photographer who responds quickly, produces incredible photos (and turns them around quickly too), while making you feel at ease during it all - look no further!

She was absolutely amazing. She knew exactly what I wanted and my family loved my senior photos. If you want someone who will hype you up and give you what you want she is the way too go.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The price you see is the price you pay, no hidden fees. It includes our session time together, hand edited images, an online gallery, and a print release.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We'll discuss your expectations and wishes so we start off on the same page. I can recommend locations for portrait sessions and provide tips for planning your wedding timeline. If you decide we're a good fit, we'd move forward to discuss the contract and payment.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I attended Indiana University where I studied studio art photography and photojournalism. I worked on the IDS newspaper occasionally from 2009-2014, had an internship with a top Nashville, TN photographer in 2009, and was a South by Southwest photographer in 2011 and 2014.
