From start to finish, she was incredibly kind, flexible, and understanding. Her down-to-earth personality and positive energy put us at ease, and she made the whole process feel natural and comfortable. -Seema
I truly can’t imagine anyone doing a better job.
I was so excited to receive our stunning prints! Charity provides such a custom experience from start to finish and was able to produce beautiful prints that are now in our home. -Katie
They brought me to tears!
Charity offers style guides, works to find the perfect location, and offers quality products for your prints that are hard to find elsewhere. On top of that, she’s such a joy to work with and is so much fun! -Macayla
Her whole process is unlike any other photographers I've worked with.
Fueled by sunshine and chai, with 15 years of photographing from coast to coast, there's nothing I love more than telling the stories of beautiful humans. And as a mother, I know how important every season is. I believe in compassion-meets-excellence, and in building relationships. Our lives are deeply personal, so your photos should be, too.
