Meet the Creative Behind the Magic
Hi, I’m Carly—
I’m a portrait and branding photographer based in Philadelphia.
I create photos that make you feel seen and celebrated
In this increasingly visual world, it can be difficult to stand out and also feel like yourself. I want to work with you to tell your unique story—whether it’s about love, about drive and passion, or about family—so that everyone can know how incredible you are.
How did I get into photography?
I fell in love with photography shortly after my father died. I was eleven years old, and my world had turned upside down… and here was this tool with the ability to capture moments and keep them forever, a power I wished I’d had when my dad was alive.
As I’ve gotten older and continued to work as a photographer, I’ve realized that while I still love that power, what I love most is connecting with people.
Understanding who someone is and what makes them beautiful drives me to create images that help them feel seen in a world that doesn’t always make room for them. A photograph can be so impactful in someone’s life, and I’m deeply grateful that my work can hopefully make that impact.
I’m a photographer, but I’m also…
