Life moves quickly, but it's worth slowing down for. I photograph the moments that often go unnoticed — the gentle, the imperfect, the honest parts of your story—so you can return to them long after the season has changed.

" Stormy did a magical job! I am so impressed with how she handled every aspect of the photography for my wedding! For one, she really got to know us on our first meeting. I felt comfortable going into iT... She's a beautiful soul. I could tell that from the first ten minutes I felt very comfortable with her, despite the chaotic time before the wedding... Our pictures came out BEAUTIFUL. She did a wonderful job editing, and accessing our photos was a breeze!! I would absolutely recommend Stormy to do anyone's wedding, and I will definitely be reaching out soon for some family photos! "

maNDI + JONATHAN

Stormy comes very highly recommended from the Betz family! I had inquired about a TN photographer (VERY) last minute due to last minute plans to travel there from IN for a long weekend.

...

Stormy was able to fit us into her extremely [busy] schedule, worked with travel time, and provided some flexibility of times as we were driving & I had NO idea how baby would do in the car for a longer trip!


She made our shoot fun, with full attention to little man & his details. We obtained the most precious and memorable photos back to always help us remember and treasure Leon’s first trip to TN. Highly highly recommend & can’t wait to see her again, sometime!

Testimonials

" Stormy did our wedding photos and they turned out phenomenal!! It was a dreary day with showers most of the time. She would watch the radar and let us know when we had breaks in the rain so we could go outside and get the much wanted outdoor pictures that I had envisioned as part of our wedding day. Every picture she made was wonderful! She is so creative and easy to work with while being on top of every little detail! I would HIGHLY recommend her for your photographer needs! You will NOT be disappointed! "

JENNIFER + TOMMY

Stormy was an absolutely incredible photographer! She had so many ideas on how to pose and where to go to get the perfect location for my engagement photos. My fiancé and I immediately relaxed around her, which can be hard since we’re both a little introverted to new people. I would 100 percent recommend her to anyone who is looking to get some high quality pictures taken!

" Stormy did an outstanding job capturing the details of our special day. I could not have asked for a better photographer! She was extremely patient with all of my crazy requests and multiple chaotic rounds of family portraits. She so easily brought my shy husband out of his shell to get some great photos of him. She actually seemed to have fun with us and was enthusiastic every step of the way. I 100% recommend her! "
