TELLING YOUR STORY
I'm Grace! If you haven't caught on by now, I'm a photographer. I specialize in natural light, real life, true to color photographs. In a world that is filled with filters and highlight reels, I believe in capturing the truly real moments in life - the way your kid's little hands fit perfectly around your neck, the way you and your partner smile at each other. There is so much beauty found in real life! I will capture your big day, your newborn, or your family just as you are - in the middle of the magical moment of life you are in.
I like you already!
Nice to meet you
I'm a wife and a mom so I know how fast time flies by, how fleeting the precious moments are and how quickly you're onto the next age and stage. I wanted (and still want) photos that truly capture a moment in time. The way my babies give me a squeeze, the way my husband looks at me and laughs out loud because I'm being ridiculous. You know, real life! The perfectly imperfect moments that you never, ever want to forget. That's why I do what I do.
real life is what I do.
more about me
You'll find me...
Chasing my kids probably or outside, with a book in my hand and a cup of coffee in the other. I'm a self-diagnosed plant lady, a habitual redecorator, and I live and breathe for my kids. My husband and I have found a love in hiking and are planning a trip across the country next year for our 10 year anniversary!
My faith is a huge part of my life! My husband and I are student pastors at our church. Our students keep us young and cool(ish). We love to hang out with our friends, ride with the top off in our Jeep, and listen to podcasts and compare notes.
I started my photography journey when my baby brother was born when I was almost 8. My disposable camera and I drove him crazy. When my little guy was born, I was desperate to spend as much time with him as possible so I quickly started looking into what I could do to quit my 9-5. Four years (and another baby later) I finally went full-time with photography. I shoot with a Canon R6 and love capturing images that will leave you wanting to order 15 huge smallwood prints for your house.

FAQ'S
GIVE ME THE DEETS
I shoot with a Canon R6. I also have a Canon 5d Mark III that I use sometimes as a second body and always have on hand in case of an issue with my R6. Backups are always a good idea!
What kind of gear do you use?
How fast can we expect our photos to be delivered?
what is your photography style?
Typically, I will share sneak peeks in 24 hours or so and deliver normal sessions in 1-2 weeks. Weddings are delivered within 4 weeks.
If I had to give a fancy answer, I would say that I am a natural light, lifestyle photographer that leans toward light and airy and keeps the colors true. I don't believe in putting myself in a box though. If you want a really, real answer, I would say that my style is capturing real life moments in true, timeless color.

My boyfriend and I did a photoshoot with Grace! We don’t know how to pose at all and Grace walked us through multiple different poses and made us feel relaxed. I will definitely be using her in the future! Highly recommend her photography skills and her personality
-DIANA
We had our first ever family photos done in October and Grace was amazing! She was SUPER patient with my crew, encouraging, and managed to capture some awesome photos despite the craziness of 2yr old twins and a (sick) 5yr old! Between the beautiful photos and her absolutely lovely demeanor, she has definitely made customers for life with us!
-RACHELLE
Grace is amazing at what she does. From making you feel like you're the only one she cares about during your session, to sharing stories from her personal life, to delivering beautiful images...I'm so thankful that she took my headshots! Couldn't recommend her enough and will use her again!
-brianna
We had the BEST time hanging (because that’s what it felt like) out with Grace while she took our pictures. She made everything feel so natural and not posey. We were blown away with what she captured and couldn’t be anymore thankful to have memories to cherish because of the pictures she took. Response time was so fast and we even changed the location last minute. Very professional but also extremely friendly and relaxed. We will definitely be coming back to her for more photos!!! Thank you, Grace!
-morgan
Grace recently took our family pictures and I couldn’t be more thankful! She is an amazing person and she was so patient with our one year old and we felt so comfortable with her. She made sure we got everything we wanted before leaving and our pictures turned out amazing! We will definitely be using Grace for our next pictures! Thank you, Grace!

What can I expect when working with you?
First answer, zero stress! I believe booking a photo session should be fun and easy. I will help you prep for your session by sending over an outfit guide as well as a location guide to help you pick the perfect spot. I also have an FAQ guide that will answer your questions before you have them!
During your session, you can expect fun prompts to get real smiles from your littles and probably crazy noises and cheesy jokes...but they work! I try to mix in some "look at the camera" poses that are more traditional with lots of sweet candids.
Sessions are delivered via online gallery in 2-3 weeks of your session.
