White Wolf Photographics It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis. - H. Cartier-Bresson [email protected] I yearn to learn more about what I do.

I want to tell stories

The Professional
Knowledge is perhaps the most valuable thing that I wish to gain. I want to be a master of my craft, exploring as many elements of photography as I possibly can. I strive for quality, and not quantity. I strive to be as unique as I can be. I want to make memories, not just take pictures. I want it to be an experience that is enjoyable, and memorable, for pi

ctures are only as good as the memories and feelings associated with them. After all, everyone has their own story to tell. The Artist
What drives me as an artist are the voices and visions that will not be silent, will not stay hidden. There are forces within me that compel me to do what I do. If I continue to cage the monsters they will only tear at me within, and drive me to madness. If it were not for this therapy I could not function within the realm of happiness that I do. I would be mad, depressed, crazy, angry, and a fool. I am a slave to stories. I long to tell, feel, connect to people through stories. I have long since found that my work attempts to show two seemingly contradictory things simultaneously. The childlike and the truths of becoming an adult. The learning process as we age is one I have found interesting. These trials in my life that reveal truths to me I have welcomed, but the actual process of aging and becoming responsible and independent has tormented me. My most recent work focuses on the fictive contrived element. And fiction, as unreal as it may be, is successful because of how steeped in reality it is. We buy into fiction and let it take us somewhere new and exciting. I dabble with characters and how they become who they are, or what makes them who they are. I include text with image on occasion as a way to dive deeper into these alternate worlds. I strive to show the truths that I have discovered, had revealed to me, or have experienced in the process of growing up, but desperately not wanting to. It is childlike in the sense of the fantastic, the fictive, but truth, is the ultimate goal. Khaled Hosseini said, "Writing fiction is the act of weaving a series of lies to arrive at a greater truth." For writing or photographing this is my main goal. To show truth by weaving together believable lies. Truth is always difficult to handle, but when you no longer feel as if you are handling it alone, but with someone else, even if they do not exist within the same world you do, it makes the burden infinitely easy to bear. It gives you strength. Kelly Householder

It was only fitting that my last wedding be one that was as beautiful, dreamy, and downright fun as this one.
I love weddings. The sheer joy of people so excited to share the statement of their love in front of their friends and family.
Which is why I will miss them.
I am stepping away from weddings as COVID-19 is still complicating gatherings and my own "day-time" work making me want to be able to devote more time to my family.
This year has been tough, but I'm so glad I was able to capture these moments for this beautiful family!

Class of 2020.
My heart would already break for the seniors had it not been that this year was my baby brother’s senior year. But this just brings it all home.
I had looked forward to watching him captain the soccer team he worked so hard for 3 years. I looked forward to watching him perform in his last musical, to take pics of his going to prom, and to cheer so loudly as he walked across that stage with honors.
And this year, none of that has or will happen. It’s been heartbreaking enough to be sequestered, out of work, and away from people, to be hiding from and trying to prevent this invisible, yet formidable, foe. But to see my little brother struggle with not seeing his friends, people he was soon to part ways with anyway. To see him struggle with not getting to do these things he so looked forward to, it’s hard.
I have been overwhelmed with emotion today as we looked back on his high school career. As we looked back at these photos marking the occasion. We tried to be light. To be fun. To capture the good in what we did have. And I suppose, that’s all we can do.
But I’m sorry Senior Class of 2020. I truly am sorry that you have this kind of end to your high school experience. May you relish the good from it. May you take life experience, strength, and knowledge away from this with you into your lives in the future. I hope that all this means a brighter future is ahead for you.

I had to take a step back from taking on any new sessions for a while, and that was because of this little bug right here.
Slowly I will start taking on sessions again, but for now, this little girl is keeping me busy. :)

Guys, my best friends are gonna have another little boy and I couldn't be MORE excited. Today we took part 1 of her (their) maternity pictures and isn't she just a gorgeous glowing momma? (I guess Colin is alright ;) )
You can't even tell that she was in pain the whole time, has had too many complications to count or been put on bed rest. She looks like this momming thing is so easy.
Little Bowen is already blessed with such amazing parents. I can't wait to be around to watch him grow and thrive!

I'm up late editing, but it's worth it!

Jess and Josh. I have loved getting to be involved in your story. I am beyond excited to watch you two grow and step toward your big day together, and then watch you grow and fall more in love with each other. I was honored to take photos marking your engagement. Plus we had some good fun making these happen as well!
I was excited to shoot some photos at The Ivey House, even with the dream still being realized, it looks more and more loved everyday! Spring suits this house.

Also, thank you Misty Watson for your lovely assistance, without which some of these photos wouldn't be possible.
OKay, well most of them!

More photos to come soon!

We had an absolute blast even if the ground was terribly squishy and muddy and we have to change venues a few times to get what we wanted. But we laughed and joked and had such a great time! I love the sense of humor that these two have! Merry Christmas, Josh Mcclanahan and Jess Elizabeth!!
