THE JOY. THE EXCITEMENT. THE LAUGHTER. THE TEARS. YOUR STORY IS NOT ORDINARY – TOGETHER WE WILL CAPTURE MEMORIES THAT ARE UNDENIABLY-YOU TO CHERISH FOR A LIFETIME.
You want to look back in 20+ years and still feel that same candid and joyful love. You want to remember what it felt like to be held in your lover’s arms. You want to relive the small moments of a sweet stolen glance and the big moments of the first kiss. You value imperfection over perfection. You dream of running around without a care in the world, letting your hair flow with the wind because in that moment, nothing is better than having effortless fun with your person.
What you need to know is that I believe in serving and guiding. Your story being photographed in a genuine way matters just as much to me as if it were my own. So when I say that I’m more than just a photographer, this means actually getting to know you instead of just showing up and telling you to love on each other. This means helping you craft a personalized timeline that fits every vision and hope you ever had for your day and not missing a beat. This means knowing when to prompt you through every photo (goodbye forced poses) and when to stand back capturing candid moments unfold. Your wedding day will be extraordinary and it’s my honor to timelessly document that.
You have my attention, my care, and my assistance through every part of planning. My team and I can’t wait to get to know you, hear all about your dream day, and capture all of these precious moments for you to relive over and over again.
Love Notes
“Wow, I don’t even know where to start. Claire by far exceeded every expectation we had of a photographer for our wedding day. She was hands down our best vendor throughout our entire wedding planning process. So responsive, so sweet and made us feel so comfortable while taking pictures. She really listens to what you want and who you are as a couple to make sure she captures that. Countless people came up to me and our families after the wedding and said how impressed they were with Claire and how much they loved her. She was super helpful with figuring out the timeline and coordinating with my planner for other details as well. Basically Claire will always go above and beyond for all of her couples because that’s just who she is.”

“An actual angel walking Earthside. If you want to feel like you are waltzing through the best day of your life with an old friend, you HAVE to trust Claire with your photography needs. Our elopement was 1,300 miles away in Glacier National Park, MT. Claire made the process so easy and headache free for us. She scouted BEAUTIFUL locations for our day and even had backup plans for locations, which came in handy when the weather changed so quickly. Claire captured the most authentic and raw emotions, of us and our guests. My biggest fear finding a photographer was that they would not care about capturing those small moments and we would be stuck with only posed photos with less meaning. But she diminished this fear and captured everyone in their natural demeanors. Nothing was awkward, or forced. She made sure to protect our boundaries throughout the day and captured every element perfectly! Claire is the BEST, I’m telling you!!”

“Booking Claire as our photographer was hands down the best decision we made. Claire did both our engagement photos and wedding day, and just wow. We’ve never been good with the camera, we always felt too awkward and weird in photos so we were super anxious about just taking photos. But this is Claire’s calling, she made us feel so comfortable and natural. It was easy to just be ourselves around her from the start! Just know that Claire will be your biggest supporter. She will get out in snow up to her knees for you, she will get down and help your mom put on her wedding shoes because there’s no chairs in the room, she will hype you up all day long like no one else could, she will literally go above and beyond what you think your wedding photographer will do for you, and she does it all because she truly cares about you. She’s the most authentic person I’ve ever met in her kindness, the only regret you can have is not booking Claire quick enough.”
