my philosophy

My approach to photography is all about capturing real, unposed moments.

 

At GoldenHourCo, photography is more than just pictures—it’s connection, emotion, and storytelling. I believe the best photos happen when you’re simply being yourself, surrounded by the people and places you love most.


I approach every session with patience, creativity, and a calm presence. Whether it's the laughter of a child, the love in a couple's glance, or the peaceful glow of the setting sun, I aim to capture the in-between moments—the ones that feel like home.

My goal is to help you feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated, and to deliver images that reflect not just what your day looked like, but how it felt.


Let’s create timeless images that tell your story—naturally and beautifully.



 

Parenthood is filled with irreplaceable moments that can slip away with time. I’m here to help you capture and keep them vivid.

Do you travel for photoshoots outside of West Virginia ?

Yes—I absolutely will! I love capturing stories wherever they unfold, whether it’s across the state line or across the country.


If your session is within driving distance, additional mileage fees will apply.

If your session requires air travel, I’d be happy to create a custom travel quote based on airfare, lodging, and transportation needs.


No matter the distance, I’m always up for an adventure—and ready to bring GoldenHourCo to you.



Can I customize a photography package to fit all my needs?

Yes, absolutely! At GoldenHourCo, I know that every story is unique and your session should reflect that. If one of my standard packages doesn’t check all your boxes, I’m more than happy to work with you to create a custom package that fits your vision, and needs.

Whether it’s extra time, a special location, additional outfit changes, or travel accommodations, we can build something just for you.

Let’s chat and make it happen!

How long does it take to receive the final photos?

For most portrait sessions, you can expect to receive your fully edited gallery within 3–7 days. I take great care in editing every image to ensure you receive high-quality, beautiful photos you'll love.

Weddings and larger events may take a bit longer due to the volume of images—typically 2–4 weeks, depending on the season and schedule. I’ll always keep you updated and may send sneak peeks along the way!

If you ever need your photos by a certain date, just let me know in advance and I’ll do my best to accommodate.
