creating a space for seniors and couples to feel free, joyful, and fully themselves
Hey love, I'm Payton!
I first fell in love with photography when I was 13 in my high school journalism class. At the time, it was just something fun I got to do, but I didn’t fully see it as my future until my senior year of high school, when I started dreaming a little bigger and realized I wanted to turn this into a business of my own.
What started as taking photos on my phone slowly turned into saving up for my first camera, learning everything I could, and falling deeper in love with the creative process. From there, I took a leap of faith and officially started my photography business—and I haven’t looked back since.
Before this, I was just a student figuring things out like everyone else, not really sure what I wanted my future to look like. But photography gave me direction, purpose, and a way to connect with people in such a meaningful way.
"I thank God every day for helping me get to where I am and for opening doors I never could have imagined."
I'm a cold-weather and fall girl ALL the way!
I will say “Oh, so cute!” 100 times at every session
My top music artists are Bethel Music, Elevation Worship, Gracie Abrams, Taylor Swift, Noah Kahan, and Ella Langley! Don’t ask me to choose a favorite song because that’s just way too hard.
I have fallen in love with skiing
I love reading a good book when I get the chance
I love a night in rather than going out, I’m also a homebody and introvert.
