MISSISSIPPI STORYTELLING PHOTOGRAPHER
“Life is a blank canvas, and you need to throw all the paint on it you can.”
BE BOLD.
BE BRAVE.
BE adventurous.
you're here because you want more than a pretty photo...
A good photo doesn't exist to sit on the mantle & collect dust. They aren't meant to disappear on your socials over time, something you never look back on. These photos should tell a story - your story. Those candid moments, laughs shared between loved ones, and all of the intimate moments in between... those are the moments I want to capture.
That's my goal. Let's capture your story from start to finish. From chasing sunsets to dancing in the rain, I'm all in!
Isn't it magical to think that every moment, big or small, can become an adventure by simply shifting our view? My lens will take an ordinary moment & magnify the little things that create adventure. Let's start planning your dream storytelling session today. We'll run around outside, dance in the rain, and get a little dirty.
Adventure // an unusual & exciting experience or activity

Meet the Storyteller
Hey there, it's carly! I have a passion for creating art & telling stories. let's connect & capture your adventures, celebrations, and all the in betweens.
I've worked alongside photographers for years. I've designed websites, set up backend systems, edited wedding galleries, optimized sites, curated paid ads, and more. It was finally time to get back to what I loved - the art. Now, I have the ability to handle the fun part. I get to pose and create and edit from start to finish. Telling your story is not just a talent, it's a passion. Thank you for allowing me to play a small role in your stories!

Carly's eye for not only detail, but storytelling is astonishing. She guided my girls and I during the entire shoot which I was incredibly thankful for! Not to mention, her stunning wardrobe in her client closet! She took the guess work out of what we needed to wear! The shoot was a blast and the final result was more than I could have ever asked for. From the rich, bold, and dramatic edits to the emotion and love that she captured so perfectly, it was nothing short of incredible. I can't wait to display these images in my home and I will definitely be using Carly again in the near future!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
Carly is by far the best of the best! ✨
Does anyone else get antsy and overwhelmed about what to wear for a photo shoot? Definitely ME. ✋🏼
Not only does Carly give suggestions on color palettes to choose from, she has her OWN client closet y’all. The options are priceless. She has different styles and different colors of the most beautiful pieces. GOOD QUALITY too. Everything she has been hand picked by her.
While I’m telling you about her style of clothes, let me tell you about her style of photography. I’ve not seen anything like it. Between her editing skills and creativity I can not recommend her enough. Carly’s creativity and passion for photography definitely shows. The entire time during our mommy + me photo session (with a 5 year old) lol was so much fun!! She was patient and encouraged my daughter and I to be ourselves and just have fun. Everything felt as natural as she is. 🫶🏼
Thank you, Carly so much! We can wait for our next shoot!
Super flexible with scheduling, spent lots of time helping me pick out the right outfits for my whole family, and was super patient with my uncooperative toddler! 100% recommend if you want someone who understands your crazy life and wants to capture it for you!
