Welcome! My name is Cassandra but most people call me Cassie.


As mom of four, I truly understand how precious time is. Our children grow and change in the blink of an eye, reminding us that time is fleeting and all we really have is the present moment. That's why I'm on a mission to capture the raw, genuine emotions that tell your unique story. For me, it's about more than just a posed photo—it's about preserving those real moments that mean the most.

that last forever!

We loved working with Cassie! She helps you to feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the way she works with the light is something truly special. She has captured moments we will cherish forever and will also look beautiful along the walls of our home.

As a Mom of 5, it’s easy to get lost in the chaos and not have time for much of anything, including capturing memories. But with a life that is fleeting every moment, I decided to hire Cassie to take our first ever family photographs. While I expected to cherish each photo and look back on all of my kids faces years from now, I didn’t expect to see a gallery that so beautifully and intricately captured our family as a whole, one that captured each one of us individually, the bonds that we have with one another, and the immense amount of love that holds us all together. Every single image carefully thought out as its own masterpiece. I will never be able to thank Cassie enough for the gift she gave me, and never be able to stop admiring every single image.

Intimate wedding portrait in bright indoor setting showing romantic moment.
Testimonials

Cassandra was fantastic from the start. I had seen her work, and loved the way she utilized natural light to capture incredible moments, rather than just traditional poses. Due to a last minute change in the weather for our wedding, Cassandra was required to think on her feet and did so with ease, kindness, and a lot of laughter from both the wedding party and herself. She was so fun and easy to work with, and she did an excellent job of taking the inspiration I had talked to her about, and photos I had imagined, and making them come to life. I would book her over and over, and look forward to working with her in the future for mini sessions and family moments.

Testimonials

Cassandra was the best! We traveled to Cooperstown from Kansas City and wanted to capture family photos there. In 30 minutes we got so many perfect images of all five of us - mom, dad, three boys, and a bulldog - and they are exactly what I was hoping for. Cassandra just... *got it*. I had a vision in my head and with only a few words and ideas exchanged, she more than delivered. Highly, highly recommend!! Thank you! We will treasure these :)
