Everyone has a story- your story deserves to be told

Hey friend, how’s it hanging!! Being an obsessed storyteller, i can’t resist sharing my own story with you.

Hey hey hey there friends! My name is Karly, and I might just be the most awkward human being on the planet and have no idea how to segue from the introduction into the real juicy stuff, so I’m going to just dive right in. I moved to Cincinnati, Ohio 5 years ago (when people tell you time flies, they are seriously not kidding holy crap). I am making a beautiful home here and really diving deep into the things I am most passionate about: Creating, storytelling, and drinking a totally not concerning amount of wine. But anyway, you’ve made it here for the creating +story telling combination I’m assuming? I freaking love telling stories. Love stories, success stories, stories about what the h*ck happened last night. Stories about me, stories about my friends and family, but - most importantly - stories about you.

My home here in Cincy is made comfy and cozy by my wonderful husband Nolan- (we just got married in April 2022!), our sassy boy Louie, and the memories we have of our silly bling dog, Sam (keep on scrolling for photos, I couldn’t leave ya hanging!). Our favorite activities are Disney movie drinking games, cheering on the Clemson Tigers, and Nolan tailgating all of the ridiculous races I signed up for on a whim (ask me about his last place finish in a beer-5k while I was dying during a half marathon). As I kind of mentioned, Nol and I are diehard Clemson football fans, so if I’m not tearing up the dance floor at your fall wedding, I’m climbing up to our nosebleed seats in Death Valley or posted up at Queen City Exchange and singing the fight song until my voice is gone. I love nothing more than some good quality time with the people I care about and I’m committed to living my life in a way that allows me to do that as often as I possibly can.

 

I want nothing more than to be part of your incredible journey, and getting to be apart of the beginning of your forever on your wedding day is one of the greatest honors. The joining of two lives is such a special, incredible, powerful moment- one that deserves to be remembered for generations to come. My goal is to be a part of your day in a way that I am able to tell your story so beautifully that the storytelling becomes one with the story and you walk away with memories that will last not only your lifetime, but many to come. If this is what you’re wanting out of your photographer, what the heckity h*ck are you waiting for. Hit my lil “say hello” button and we can get a-chatting. Post COVID times we’ll be able to grab coffee or a beer or pizza, but for right now we’ll make a little zoom date night together. We’ll get to know each other, talk about your story, and brainstorm the best way to get that story told!

Call me, beep me if you wanna reach me!

 

 

My Style

I specialize in two very important facets of wedding day photos: the beautiful, artistic portraits mixed the candid moments and real interactions between the people I’m photographing. I utilize gentle and natural posing, prompts, and being quick on my feet when I notice something happening to bring all of those moments to the surface.

I edit photos on the warmer side with the perfect amount of contrast, while prioritizing perfect skin tones above all else. Key colors in the photo will always pop, like the red of a mama’s dress, the green in your bouquet, or the golden glow of the sunset.
