WELCOME
Hey there! I’m Tonya, a portrait photographer in the foothills of North Carolina, near Lake Lure. I am available for family, maternity, lifestyle newborn, elopements and intimate weddings. Serving all of Western NC and Upstate SC, I’m happy to travel beyond—just reach out for a travel quote!
My relaxed, laid-back style captures life as it naturally unfolds. My goal is for you to not only love your photos but to truly cherish them, just as you do the people in them.

Tryon Family, Maternity & Newborn Photographer
“We are making photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.”
– Ralph Hattersley
“Tonya has been taking our family photos for almost nine years. She’s done newborn photos, holiday minis and just because photos. She is AMAZING! We have her pictures in frames all over our house. They are just gorgeous. We recently drove almost two hours for a shoot and I would drive many hours beyond that because I know I’ll always come away with a priceless set of photos.”
– Stephanie K.
