My name is Caley and I am so happy you have found your way to me! I am a Memphis Wedding Photographer with a passion for capturing the wonder and beauty of everyday moments. Photography to me is capturing the moments that happen naturally while enjoying the moments with the ones you love! I truly love every ounce of my job because it fills me with so much joy to be surrounded by such life changing moments. I feel so lucky to be trusted with something that will be cherished for generations.

Weddings. couples. Boudoir

I am a Memphis native who is full of energy and new ideas!! In my off time, you can find me drinking iced coffee, reading a romantic novel, or watching the latest show on Netflix! My first passion in life was teaching 5th graders, but I left such a rewarding career to pursue wedding photography!! I have been practicing photography since 2018 and transitioned my hobby to a business in 2021! I feel so lucky that I have been able to meet and laugh with so many incredible people! My cup is filled when I get to be my most creative self and am trusted with a vision that I get to bring to life!

Fun Facts

  • I picked up my first camera in middle school! I always thought it would be so fun to take good photos! I had this same thought in college back in 2018 where I paired up with a pal of mine to learn about photo basics. I eventually moved into a professional space in 2021 and haven't looked back!

  • I am an identical twin! She is my best friend and I feel so lucky to be chosen to be her other half from day 1! She does not do photography so you don’t have to worry about a twin switcheroo!

  • I have 2 dogs and a cat! I have a Golden Retriever named Kylo and a Pitbull named Luna! We rescued our newest addition, our cat named Olli! My world revolves around my little family!

  • Pink is my favorite color (if you hadn’t noticed lol!) Pink makes my heart so warm and fuzzy!

  • I taught 5th grade reading and writing for 3 years and even have a Masters of Education! 

  • I am in a bowling league just for fun! I am not any good so I won’t be invited on a professional team anytime soon!

  • If you know me, you know I love to vacation on a cruise! I have been on 15 cruises and go one 1 to 2 with my family each year! A few times a year, you can usually see a post from me boarding a cruise ship, ready to relax and recharge!

  • My favorite drink is a Coca-Cola! When I feel like having a treat, I reach for a Coke every time! It is my favorite wedding day drink when eating dinner! It just makes me so happy!

  • I loveeee to read! I’ll read anything with a good rating on Goodreads! I have lately transitioned from reading romance to thrillers! Freida McFadden has my jaw on the floor every time and I can’t get enough! I have also been into memoirs. People’s life journey is so compelling for me to read! 

  • I loveeee games. I love doing the daily Wordle as well as playing board games with my family and friends! My favorite card game is Skipbo and my favorite board game is Ticket to Ride!
