First off, thanks for being here :) I understand how intimidating it can be to get in front of the camera, so knowing who's behind it can make all the difference...I'm originally from South Florida, but in 2020, my husband and I decided we needed a change of scenery, so we packed up a U-Haul, our Rottweiler Bella and headed out to the Rockies - best decision ever!! When we moved to Colorado, I fully leaned into my passion for photography (I was an elementary teacher beforehand) and began capturing as much as possible – friends who were up for a free shoot, families needing a holiday card photo, grad students and eventually weddings - my favorite!! I officially started my business in 2021 and it's been the best journey since. Getting to capture those candid moments between couples is so rewarding and something I'll never take for granted.
A few of my favorites...

You can put as many or as few as you want in your world. I like to talk to trees and animals. All you need to paint is a few tools, a little instruction, and a vision in your mind. We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care. Go out on a limb — that’s where the fruit is. Go out on a limb — that’s where the fruit is. Isn’t it fantastic that you can change your mind and create all these happy things?

Beauty is everywhere—you only have to look to see it. Just relax and watch it happen. This is your world. Like I always say, ‘Everyone needs a friend. Wash the brush, just beat the devil out of it. You can move mountains, you can do anything. Go out on a limb — that’s where the fruit is. Wash the brush, just beat the devil out of it. Just relax and watch it happen.

Maybe in our world there lives a happy little tree over there. All you need to paint is a few tools, a little instruction, and a vision in your mind. We don’t laugh because we feel good, we feel good because we laugh. Just beat the devil out of it. We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care. Just let go — and fall like a little waterfall. Believe that you can do it cause you can do it. Be a gentle whisper.

I prioritize creating a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere on your wedding day. I value thoughtful planning while embracing flexibility, allowing space for spontaneity and gracefully navigating any changes that may arise.
My friend referred me to Carly for our engagement pictures and boy she did not disappoint! Carly was so warm and bubbly and made my fiancé and I feel so confident taking our pictures. We were also from out of town visiting Boulder and she was so helpful with picking out locations for our photos and with directions getting there. She was also very quick on responding to our questions and with getting our pictures back. Would HIGHLY recommend her!

Carly is amazing! We worked with her for both our engagement shoot and wedding, and we couldn’t be happier. She made us feel so comfortable from the very beginning—super kind, easy to talk to, and just really great to be around. She went with the flow and captured everything so naturally. My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera, and we felt like the photo sessions were so fun and natural with her. If you’re looking for someone who’s talented, chill, and just a joy to work with, Carly is your girl.

Absolutely amazing, we loved every bit of our photos. Carly was absolutely a dream to work with and had amazing personality, we are so happy to have had her and her second shooter. They were both amazing.
