Hello, I’m Carly, a mother of three children and a family photographer.

My experience and journey as a wife and mother, along with my background in philosophy and theology, have shown me two things: how fleeting the moments along the journey are and also how these fleeting moments have eternal weight.
These experiences inform how I photograph my clients and my own family.
I believe photos that authentically capture you and yours — photos that reflect who you are, that search for the meaning and love present in your story — honor both of these aspects of the fleetingness and the weightiness of the journey. Photographs allow this fleeting moment to be concretely in your hands and on your shelf, and honor that moment’s weight by holding it still in time, to contemplate and treasure for years to come.
This is what I seek in the photos I take of my own family and what I desire to give those who entrust themselves to me here. With this perspective, I can be a sensitive witness and documenter of your story.
I’m honored to have been named one of Unraveled Academy’s Artists of the Year for 2025 and for 2026.
Let me show you how beautiful your life is.
“...for the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”
— George Eliot, Middlemarch
