Honest emotion
Treasured moments
Meet your camera girl, Claire:
Businesswoman. Filmmaker. Mom. Photographer. Artist. Traveler. Wife. Glass half full.
Lover of a barefoot afternoon, the smell of an orange grove, a European beach. Talking myself out of hopping on the next flight most days.
Growing up, every report card teacher’s comments read: “conscientious student”
and last week my therapist called me “playfully rowdy” so that about sums me up!
In college, I studied light, drawing and painting for a degree in fine art while getting a double major in creative writing
I seek inspiration from nature and travel in new cities and landscapes, from emotions written across people’s faces and the energy of a crowd.
I love that my job is to read light and capture it, in motion or still frame, to freeze a moment in time and preserve the way something felt.
“SHOOTING WITH CLAIRE IS LIKE DRINKS WITH ONE OF THOSE FRIENDS YOU GO TO WHEN YOU FEEL DOWN- YOU GET BACK HOME FEELING LIKE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS HAVE VANISHED .”
ANNA, Bride
I want my portraits to feel natural and aim for a ‘painterly’ quality through old-school film techniques mixed with modern digital tools and tricks.
I have been shooting weddings for 15 years, and have recently begun more commercial work for small business owners and brands.
I also own a swimsuit line at Coralee Swimwear, (recently on Miami Swim week and Hawaii Swim week Runways,) where we plant a coral for each suit sold.
Whether you’re newly engaged or considering up leveling your business, Please reach out ! I’d love to learn more about what I can provide and how we can work together.
“Claire created a brand video for my business and I could not be more thrilled with what she created! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and offered direction and ideas to help ensure that I was in love with the end result.” -Alicia

Telling the story of a small business owner is something I never take for granted.
Owning 3 small companies myself, I know the grind that goes into building something from the ground up, and I am passionate about showing the face behind the brand
