Photos that feel like your real life
messy, beautiful,
and full of love.
wife, mom of three, thrift shopper, swiftie, cat lover, and your go-to girl for capturing the sweet, messy, beautiful moments of real life. I specialize in photographing families and young children, and with 6+ years of experience working with children on the autism spectrum, I know how to keep sessions calm, fun, and pressure-free. my goal is for you to walk away feeling like, “that was actually enjoyable”… and with photos you’ll never stop loving.
can't wait to hear from you!

Meet the photographer
"We absolutely loved working with Chaeney! With our big, busy family, she was so patient, understanding, and accommodating — it honestly felt effortless. We LOVED her and can’t recommend her enough!"
"She is amazing with kiddos and has such a calm, down-to-earth way of making everyone feel comfortable."
-Dorothy Matthys
""She made us feel so comfortable and confident. I was so thankful that Chaeney let us bring our pup to our engagement shoot, and now that we have received our wedding photots I can't gush about the excellence of her work enough. I am so thankful for the beautiful way she captured our perfect day! 5⭐️ would easily recommend."
"An absolute dream to work with"
-Chelsea Yoder
"Chaeney has been our go to photographer for the last 5 years, from photos announcing the gender of our first baby to now, documenting how we have grown to a family of 4. She is wonderful to work with! Always patient, flexible, and easy going throughout every session. We recently did an extended family session and my mother in law commented multiple times in the following days on how great she was, especially with the kids (who are 2 and 4 so cooperating with photos is not always on the top of their priority list!). Chaeney is always willing to try out our ideas if we have a specific photo we want and she has a beautiful vision of her own. Chaeney delivers a stunning gallery every time and you will have the most beautiful memories to look back on!"
"You will not regret booking a session"
-Maggie Szczypiorski
"Chaeney is a wonderful photographer to work with . She is prompt and goes above and beyond to make sure our family gets the best pictures possible. She listens to her clients to make sure you are getting the pictures you want but also offers creative ideas to try too. We have used Chaeney for our family photos for 4 years now and are always so thrilled with our photos! ❤️"
"She is prompt and goes above and beyond"
