Hey, I'm Jodie.

I’m your local photographer, artist, and friend based in Platte City, Missouri. I love to take photos of you, my neighbor. Your personality is the most intriguing thing about you and it's intended to be shared with the world. Standing in front of the camera is an act of bravery because you are making the conscious choice to come as you are and embrace the beauty in the present moment.

I love my community, which is why it’s important for me to give beautiful images back to you. It’s equally as important for me to reflect the beauty of creation and the one who created it. Nature is my inspiration and I hope my work reminds us of the privilege we have in caring for it.

As a lifestyle photographer, I believe family photos should be accessible to everyone, so I’ll share with you what I believe your session is worth but I want you to pay what you can. I realize that behind your images are the stories you hold, and I value the beauty of your story. You might have just endured the hardest year of your life, but you’re here, and you did the hard thing. Allow me to photograph the love that carried you through, remind you of what’s good, and let me be your ally in life.

Jodie smiling and looking up while holding onto her felt hat.
