Hi, I'm Carlie!

THE MAMA BEHIND THE LENS
Carlie here 👋🏻
I'm a mom, a wife and an artist with a deep love for storytelling in all it's messy, beautiful, real-life forms.
I'm wildly and wholeheartedly passionate about capturing connection. Not just how things look - but how they feel.
My work is rooted in honoring women - the heartbeat of their families, the glue, the magic-makers -- while also holding space for the people they love most. From powerful, soul-stirring empowerment sessions to slow, intentional lifestyle sessions with families, newborns, partners and wild little humans.. I'm here to document your story exactly as it is.
unpolished. emotional. honest.
My style is unapologetically bold, real, and a little rebellious. I believe photography should feel safe, hype-filled, and deeply human -- not stiff or performative. Through gentle direction, natural connection, and a relaxed environment, I create space for you to breathe, let go and simply be.
Whether we're celebrating your strength as a woman, welcoming a new baby, capturing the chaos and tenderness of family life, or freezing a season you never want to forget -- this experience is designed to remind you who are beneath the noise.
What would it feel like to walk away from an experience with proof of your power.. your love.. your legacy?

Lifestyle Photography Sessions

Tell your unique story and celebrate the season of life you're currently relishing in - from your unrequited love, to the growing belly + tiny toes to the chaos of the little munchkins, all the way through graduations - it's all worth documenting.

Carlie was so amazing to work with! I’m a thicker girl with lots of curves that’s had 3 babies. She was absolutely amazing with all of the best and most flattering angles! She got me out of my comfort zone so easily and kept me there the whole time. I couldn’t say enough good things about her! Also her client closet is endless, so it made for such an easy session! When I got the pictures it was hard to pick my favorites because there are so many! If you’re on the fence - do it! You won’t regret it!

I went into this session pretty nervous, but Carlie is amazing at what she does and I immediately felt at ease. She helped me pick what to wear, demonstrates exactly how to pose, cues facial expressions and thinks of every little detail. She was very enthusiastic to hear my ideas and ran with them. Absolute magic was made, more than I could have possibly hoped for.

At age 46, I had my first boudoir session with Carlie as an anniversary gift for my husband. I was SO nervous and didn’t expect that I would even like most of the photos anyway. BUT, Carlie was so professional and made me feel so comfortable in my own skin. I ended up buying EVERY PHOTO! I would absolutely recommend her for anyone - any shape, any size, with every “flaw” you think you have! I have a different confidence with my body now and I can honestly say it was because of this session! Do it! You won’t regret it!
