About Me

Hi, I’m Gracie the heart behind Dogwood Days Photography.


I’m 28 years old, a mother of five, and I’ve been a freelance photographer for the past eight years. Photography found me early in life, taught by my grandmother, who captured the world in black and white film. Through her lens, I learned to slow down, notice light, and appreciate the quiet beauty in the smallest details lessons that still guide my work today.


My grandmother’s favorite flowers are dogwoods, and they hold deep meaning for me. Each bloom carries five petals, a reflection of my five beautiful children who keep me young, adventurous, and deeply aware of life’s tiny, meaningful moments. They inspire the way I see the world and the way I photograph families.

Come as you are. Run barefoot, laugh loud, cuddle close turning photos into memories you’ll always feel.

At Dogwood Days Photography, sessions are relaxed and joy filled, designed to feel like a shared experience rather than a chore. My approach is candid, natural, and family centered, creating images that feel lived-in, warm, and honest.


I believe the most beautiful photographs live in the in between moments the quiet connections, the unposed laughter, the fleeting details that often go unnoticed. My goal is to preserve those moments in a way that feels authentic and accessible.


Dogwood Days Photography is the photographer for your family.


Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to tell your story.
