Courtney Collins Photography
Creating Comfortable Genuine Moments
Courtney Collins spent 12 years managing a studio for a New York City Ballet photographer, building an independent business and working creatively in a fast-paced environment. She sharpened her ability to be creative in tight time frames without sacrificing vision and harnessed the power of telling a story visually.
Upon returning to North Carolina, Courtney brought home a unique perspective influenced by more than a decade's work in New York City. Her Charlottesville wedding photography style puts authenticity first as she seeks to tell your story in a personalized way. Courtney removes any stiff, shy or uncomfortable tendencies and puts those in front of her lens at ease with her natural, fun demeanor. She enjoys creating comfortable environments where you can let your guard down and be your genuine self.
Her knack for working the peripherals of the room and snapping wedding moments that otherwise would have slipped through the cracks are a great source of pride. A grandparent’s eyes as they admire your first dance or a father’s tearful first look. These bits of time and tiny imperfections of humanity are the foundation of Courtney Collins wedding photography.
