Welcome!
I'm so glad that you found yourself here. Make yourself at home and take a look around. As you'll see, my work is heavily influenced by my appreciate for connection, authenticity and the natural world. In my work I capture the small, simple moments of life that can so easily go unnoticed - the ones we miss when they're gone, the ones we want to hold on to. I believe that when we train our eyes to really see and pay attention to moments like these, we can live more fully in the beauty of life that is all around us, all the time.

"April has given us one of the most precious gifts in the entire world by capturing our family in the most beautiful way. She is so kind, patient, and guides ever so gently while capturing real moments in between. Our entire shoot felt natural and fun, and nothing was hurried or forced. I treasure our photos SO very much!"

"April captures the simple beauty of a moment each and every time we use her! She has photographed my family since my babies were born... always able to use an angle that is breathtaking and beautiful... even in the chaos. She is beyond talented behind her camera. Obviously, I highly recommend her work!"

"I adore the photos April took of my family! We had so much fun. It all felt very relaxed and natural as we walked and explored the absolutely stunning view of the North Carolina mountains and rolling hills. It was perfect, and now I have photos that are pure gold!"

"April is such a lovely lady and talented photographer. We already loved her because she was our son's amazing kindergarten teacher, but she truly captured the essence of our family with her camera last weekend. She is calm and capable, totally comfortable with kids and their silliness. I highly recommend her!"

"April was so easy and fun to work with especially having two active children. She literally told my family to go play in a field and she took the most incredible pictures during that experience! Her work is inspiring and refreshing and the way she captures such beautiful moments is seriously a gift! I'd highly recommend her any day!"

"April is a natural at what she does. I absolutely HATE getting my pictures taken (just feel like they are always forced and super awkward), but April made it feel like we were just hanging out and I felt like I was able to be my normal self. She was helpful with suggestions, picked the most charming and beautiful spot, works amazing with kids/baby and stubborn husbands that don't normally like their pictures taken and was just overall a joy to work with! I'd recommend her to anyone."

"April was absolutely amazing when she recently took our annual family photos. Not only did she suggest a beautiful location, she also thought incorporating our bicycles would be fun!. It was definitely something we had never done and I'm so glad we did! She was beyond patient with my three children and spent ample time following us around, getting great natural shots. I love everything about the photos she took and we will definitely be in contact with April for our next family photo session!"

I cannot say enough about how fabulous our photo shoot with April was!! No one has ever captured our family essence like she did! She makes you feel so comfortable in your own skin! And the kids were totally at ease—all of their genuine smiles and play came through in all of the pictures. And the final photos brought me to tears! Her photos elicit more raw, genuine emotion than any Ive ever seen. Our whole family can’t recommend her more highly!!

"Our engagement photos turned out so beautifully! April made the most of the not-so-great weather (she did offer to reschedule, but we opted not to, which she was on board with)! We got some gorgeous shots but most importantly we had a great time during the shoot, thanks to April's creativity and passion for what she does. Highly recommend!"
"Wherever we go, the chance for joy,
whole orchards of amazement-
one more reason to always travel
with our pockets full of exclamation marks,
so we might scatter them for others
like apple seeds.
Some will dry out, some will blow away,
but some will take root
and grow exuberant groves
filled with long thin fruits
that resemble one hand clapping-
so much enthusiasm as they flutter back and forth
that although nothing's heartd
and though nothing's really changed,
people everywhere for years to come
will swear that the world
is ripe with applause, will fill
their own pockets with new seeds to scatter."
