If you’ve ever wondered what makes Wayne County such a special place to take photos, let me pull back the curtain. It’s not just the pretty backdrops or the historic buildings (though those help!). It’s the people, the stories, and the everyday moments that make this community feel like home—and inspire my work every single day.

Faces That Make a Difference

From the friendly barista who remembers your order at the local coffee shop to the coach who cheers every kid on the field, Wayne County is full of people who show up for each other. I’ve photographed families who’ve lived here for generations, seniors ready to take on the world, and small business owners pouring their hearts into their dreams. Every session is a chance to celebrate the real folks who make this place shine.

Main Street Magic

There’s something about Main Street in Cambridge City, especially during the holidays, that feels like stepping back in time. The twinkle lights, the historic storefronts, and the way neighbors greet each other on the sidewalk—it’s the kind of scene you just can’t fake. I love capturing couples strolling hand-in-hand or families gathered in front of a favorite shop. These are the images that tell the story of our town.

Hidden Gems and Favorite Haunts

Some of my favorite photos have happened in the most unexpected places—a quiet park bench, a sunlit corner of Huddleston House, or even someone’s own backyard. It’s not about the fanciest location, but the memories being made. I always encourage clients to think about spots that matter to them, whether it’s the field where their kids play soccer or the porch where they share morning coffee.

Community Spirit in Every Frame

What inspires me most is the sense of connection here. Whether I’m at a parade, a fundraiser, or a pop-up event, I see people supporting each other and showing up for their community. Capturing those moments—big or small—reminds me why I started this business in the first place: to celebrate the beauty and individuality of the people around me.

Your Story, Your Place

At the end of the day, it’s your stories and your favorite places that make my job so rewarding. If there’s a person or spot in Wayne County that means something to you, let’s capture it together. These small town stories are what make our photos (and our lives) truly unforgettable.
