Hello, I'm Claire!

A Little About Me

I'm based in the Mankato and Waseca area, specializing in warm, natural photography that focuses on real, authentic moments. I've been in business since August of 2020, and what started as a creative outlet has grown into a true passion and career.

I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education and recently earned my master's in digital marketing. My journey from teaching to marketing was fueled by my love for photography, and that passion continues to shape the way I approach every session. 

Over the years, I've had the privilege of capturing and editing images that tell powerful stories. One of my headshots is featured on a billboard in Wisconsin, and I’ve edited a professional headshot for someone at Johns Hopkins Hospital. My work has taken me to over 15 different cities, each offering a unique backdrop and perspective. Most recently, I was honored to have my work featured in Sweet Baby Magazine, Issue 45.

Outside of photography, I'm married to my best friend, Aaron, and we have a little dog named Hank who keeps things lively. I'm happiest out on the lake, enjoying the sunshine and the simple moments in life. 

I believe that photography should be both beautiful and affordable, which is why I keep my sessions relaxed and budget-friendly. Whether you're capturing family memories, engagements, or senior portraits, I'm here to help you feel at ease.

Thanks for being here—I look forward to working with you!
