Couples
Let's get creative, let's laugh, let's be together.
Let's plan a session that reflects what makes your family so special! Whether we snuggle up in your living room or take an adventure out to a big field, I'm ready to capture the magic in your family.
Being a mom myself, these sessions are so special to me. I would love the honor of capturing those newborn snuggles, your baby's tiny fingers, their biiiig yawns, and all the love that surrounds your family in those newborn days.
You, lovebirds, you.
Couple sessions are the most fun because it's honestly more like a date than a photoshoot. I'm here to capture the silliness but also the love between you & yours.

School Portraits
Now booking schools for 2025! We specialize in fine art school portrait photography. It's time to move on from the 90's school photos with that blue background we are all too familiar with, and bring in something new. More than just sitting in a chair with a forced smile, we bring out each kid's joyful and true personality with every photo - all against a beautiful, timeless creamy background.

LOVING WORDS
“Working with Courtney is an absolute DREAM! Don't even hesitate to work with her for your next photos--- couples, family, and more!
She is a visionary and a planner. She knows exactly what shots to get and how to accomplish them. She makes you feel so comfortable. My husband was a little hesitant about a photoshoot, but after a few minutes he looked at me and said, "Okay... this is really cool." You'll feel like an absolute superstar as she takes your photos! I cannot recommend her enough.”
