HI, IM CARRIE

I am a photographer and storyteller with a background rooted in portrait photography and a growing passion for hospitality and travel.

After 20 years photographing people and life’s milestones, I now apply that same storytelling approach to vacation rentals, boutique hotels, and destinations: capturing spaces the way they’re meant to be experienced. My work blends lifestyle, detail, and authentic moments to help guests imagine themselves there and help brands connect emotionally with their audience.

Whether photographing people or places, my focus is always the same: meaningful moments, genuine connection, and imagery that feels lived-in and real.

In my free time I enjoy traveling, socializing, visiting the water and sitting around a campfire. "Up North" is my happy place but Grand Haven isn't so bad either :)

I am equally left and right brained so that comes in handy! You'll see my creative side at your session and in your gallery. My *Type A* side will show in your final prints, my attention to detail and quick turnaround.

I am based in West Michigan and willing to travel worldwide.
