Hi, I’m Josie!
I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a photographer, graphic design teacher, and lifelong animal person based in Branson, Missouri.
For me, photography is about capturing the real you - the genuine laughs, little details, and moments you’ll want to remember years from now.
Senior portraits are my specialty, but I love photographing couples, families, weddings, and every season worth remembering. My goal is simple: help you feel comfortable, have fun, and walk away with photos that feel unmistakably like you.
A little more about me
I grew up on a farm in Ohio, which explains my love for animals and my comfort with a little dirt on my boots. I played softball and basketball, but my heart always belonged to rodeo.
Rodeo is what brought me to Missouri. I attended Missouri Valley College, competed on the rodeo team, and met my husband along the way, so I’d say that move worked out pretty well.
These days, I’m also a high school graphic design teacher. When I’m not teaching or photographing, I’m usually outside, staying active, or at home with my husband and our very full house of dogs and cats.
My dad is the reason photography became part of my life. He photographed every rodeo he could, and when I left for college, he sent me with a camera of my own. That gift started all of this.
Now I’m building a style and business that feel true to me while following the example he set, and I’m incredibly grateful for it.
