Elizabeth’s talent goes far beyond the photos she takes, it’s in the way she makes you feel while taking them. She has this rare ability to make you laugh, relax, and just be yourself, which shows through in every single photo. I left our shoot feeling so confident and truly seen, and can’t wait for the next one! 
I am Here to make you feel seen, celebrated, and completely yourself. With soft light and sweet stillness, I capture the real magic the kind you’re usually too busy living to notice.
Hey friends! I’m Elizabeth, a Birmingham based photographer who lives for capturing life’s sweetest seasons. From brand new babies to graduating seniors to families big and small in all phases of life. At home, I’m wife to Brandon and dog mom to our golden retriever, Nix (who definitely thinks he runs the show). When I’m not behind the camera at the Botanical Gardens or tucked into the cozy corners of your home, you’ll find me lighting a candle, binge-watching HGTV, and pretending I went to TJ Maxx for just one thing. I’m fueled daily by coffee, Diet Coke, and a love for turning everyday moments into something beautiful because sometimes, it’s the little things that mean the most.
From the moment we meet, my goal is to make you and your little ones feel totally at ease. I know how wild (and wonderful) life can be with kids - especially with a brand new baby in the mix. That’s why I keep things super relaxed. 
I’ll probably crack a few corny jokes, make silly faces, or sing a lullaby or two - whatever gets those genuine smiles and sweet cuddles! Whether it's a tiny yawn, a messy giggle, or a quiet snuggle, I’m always ready to catch the magic as it happens. These little moments pass so fast, and I’m here to help you freeze them, just as they are.
You don’t have to have it all figured out - promise. Come as you are, with your sleepy eyes, snack bags, and baby wipes in hand. I’ll take care of the rest, making the whole experience easy, fun, and full of heart. Let’s turn this beautiful chaos into memories you’ll treasure forever.
