images that shine a light into your redemption story.
behind the lens
Well hey there human. My name is Addie and I’m a Quad Cities based photographer specializing in small business branding and lifestyle photography!
I’m here to serve you with an experience that leaves you feeling known.
My hope and my heart is to capture images that show your personality, your values, your voice and your vision. A lot of photographers are going to tell you they take unique photos, and yes, they do. But I’m here to tell you that I go deeper, I spend time getting to know you, like really know you. My heart and hands aren’t here to capture the coolest photo, they are here to showcase the real you and capture just a glimpse of the redemption taking place in your life. I intend to celebrate every moment, and celebrate you.
That’s my heart - to know you, to serve you and to celebrate you.

testimonials
‘Working with Addie was a joy from start to finish. We were both nervous beforehand and she went above and beyond to help us feel comfortable and get genuine smiles out of us. The pictures turned out amazing; it's been impossible to pick a favorite. High quality photos and a high quality artist.
— Alexandria & Kira, podcast branding shoot
“Oh my goodness, Addie! I cried looking at these. Thank you so much […] you captured us perfectly!”
— LR, family session
“Addie, I am so thankful for you and the four hours you spent carefully capturing each moment. I am grateful for your patience when someone was crying or one of the boys ran off to climb something! You made this mamma feel at ease as we spent the morning together capturing these little but powerful and important moments. I am thankful for you and the incredible artistic gift that you have shared with our family”
— MK, in home lifestyle session
“You’re the best! I love them all Addie, seriously. It has helped my confidence so much […] your posing made me feel comfortable and you made the whole experience FUN! You made me feel like a true beauty and I cannot thank you enough.”
— Shannon, portrait session
“I went into [the shoot] just wanting one good headshot for my business. However, through her questionnaire, she was able to dig deeper and get creative with the shoot. I now have so many great photos to use for multiple purposes!
— JB, realtor branding session
