W.I.L.D.
WHAT IF LIFE WAS A DOCUMENTARY
When I first picked up my camera, I found my passion in photographing families—capturing the little moments that become the big memories. We’d explore parks, favorite spots, or places filled with meaning, creating images that we can look back on for years to come.
Now, I’m bringing that same vision back with WILD: What If Life was a Documentary?—a fresh take on family photography that’s all about being casual, candid, and carefree. No stiff poses, just real, unscripted moments—the laughter, the chaos, and the love that makes your family beautifully wild and wonderful.
Let’s tell your family’s story the way it’s meant to be remembered!
Meet Jo
Hi! I’m Jo, an award-winning Charlotte-based photographer with over a decade of experience, specializing in capturing candid, casual, and carefree moments that make each family unique. Since moving to Charlotte three years ago and diving into photography full time, it’s been an incredible journey.
What sets my work apart is my genuine approach and ability to connect with my clients. I believe the best photos come from authenticity and comfort, so I strive to create a relaxed atmosphere where you can truly be yourself. Whether we’re in the studio, taking a stroll in the park, or capturing the energy of uptown, I’m here for it all.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m exploring local coffee shops, cheering on my boys at their basketball games, creating hand-painted cards, and spending time with family and friends. I can’t wait to meet you and capture something truly special—see you behind the lens!
Your Family's Story, Beautifully Captured
Life moves fast, but your family’s love, laughter, and connections deserve to be remembered forever. Let’s freeze time with a casual, candid, and carefree photo shoot—one that captures the real, unscripted moments that make your family unique.
No stiff poses, no pressure—just pure joy, genuine smiles, and the little details that make your family special. Let me capture these moments you’ll want to hold onto forever.
