Capturing Wildly Authentic Love

Hi there, new friend!

I document those belly laughing, eye watering, wildly authentic life moments.

My goal is to cultivate a relaxed and playful atmosphere where clients can shed any nerves and share their true selves. Behind the lens, I capture the unfiltered emotions, distinctive quirks, and authentic connections that make each individual wonderfully unique. I firmly believe that embracing and celebrating authenticity results in photographs that become cherished treasures passed down through generations.

Weddings & Elopements

Wedding Photography – where the good vibes and magic happen! After taking in 8 years of all things weddings, I've become a pro at spotting those clients who bring the extra sparkle. I'm a bit choosy about my couples, but when I click with the right ones, I pour my heart into it. I love capturing memories for couples who truly get the whole wild and crazy love thing – yep, "wild" is the name of the game!

I’m Whitney

Nationally published portrait & wedding photographer based out of Cincinnati, Ohio.

Hello new friend! Photography is my thing. I've been in the game full time for the past 14 years, with a solid 8 years dedicated entirely to the wedding scene. Nowadays, I'm dabbling in a bit of everything – keeps things interesting. After years of honing my skills and working with amazing clients, I can confidently say I've found my groove in the world of photography. If it's not obvious by now, authenticity is my secret sauce.

Awards & Reviews

Some of my favorite bragging rights.

Whitney is the best ever!!! She is so easy going and fun and kept us laughing all throughout our photos. We completely trusted her to make us look good and are so happy with the results. Neither of us particularly enjoy posing for photographs, so we were a little worried that we would find a photographer that would make photo sessions into a chore. Whitney made all of our photo sessions a blast! She let us just be our silly, dorky selves and it felt more like we were hanging out with a friend instead of having a photo session. She knows what looks good and what works. All we had to do was follow her instructions and not worry about a thing! We were so comfortable the entire time we were with Whitney. We will be calling on Whitney to photograph us any time we ever want some fancy pants photos. And telling all our friends to hire her too.

I highly recommend Whitney for any photography session! Whitney shot for my wedding & above anything else, she made everyone feel comfortable throughout the day. Photos tend to feel time consuming and strenuous but with Whitney they flew by and everyone felt at ease. It was like she was just another friend hanging out with all of us... just a calm, cool, and down to earth person-- Super flexible with our locations and what we envisioned for the day. Thanks again for everything, Whitney!

“We can't say enough good things about ‘Whitney’! They made what used to be a dreaded event (family pictures) so much fun! Whitney does such a good job of making people feel comfortable and the result is pictures that really capture the heart and personality of people. Nothing feels forced or staged. She is also so patient and sweet with babies :) Thanks so much for documenting our memories Whitney. We will cherish them for years to come!”
