For the wildly in love, the joyfully undone, and the deeply present

I’m here to capture more than just what your day looked like. I’m here to capture how it felt. Whether it’s your wedding day, a chaotic family cuddle pile, or a quiet brand moment. I turn real, fleeting moments into cinematic keepsakes.

Welcome!

I’m Courtney, a cinematic and documentary photographer based in Dayton, Ohio, dedicated to capturing the raw, beautiful moments that make your story uniquely yours. Whether it’s the joy of a wedding day, the warmth of a family gathering, or the essence of your brand, I aim to create images that resonate with authenticity and emotion.
