Documenting the unscripted moments that matter most

My style is designed to create an experience where picture-perfect moments naturally unfold.

• THE UNDENIABLE PRIDE EMERGING IN A PARENT'S GAZE •
• The tiny yawn of a flower girl •
• the sudden and unrestrained laughter of friends •

Those are the kinds of photographs that will remind you and your loved ones not only of this life-changing event - but of the life-enriching emotions you felt when you experienced them.

hi. i'm carter.

The sum of my life experience as a photographer, husband, and proud father has taught me to not only appreciate those moments but to actually seek them out.

And as a trained photojournalist who's photographed over 400 weddings. I naturally anticipate and find those moments of love and joy.

Moments that have brought you this far and yet, are just your beautiful beginning.

comfort + connection

It's one thing to "read the room". It's another to seamlessly fit into it. I genuinely enjoy finding ways to connect with you, your friends, and your family. And by maintaining a friendly, respectful, and professional demeanor everyone will feel comfortable to simply be themselves.

intention + preparation

I'll take note of the details and the people. I'll really think through the storyline. I'll intentionally plan how I'll frame things and which side of the story I'll tell. And then from there, I'll anticipate and capture those split-second, genuine moments.

“Our experience working with Carter was nothing short of perfect! From the booking process to the engagement portrait session to the wedding day to the wedding photo reveal, it was easy and stress-free. Not only that, it was definitely one of the most fun and memorable parts about the entire engagement and wedding, and that is all thanks to Carter.”

the most amazing shots

“He is able to blend in with everyone and get the most amazing shots while still allowing the day to progress organically where others may prioritize photography only and forget the overall purpose of the day.”
