Hello, I'm Courtney

Lifestyle Photographer

For years, I told stories through journalism and public relations. Today, I tell them through photography.

I founded Courtney Simone Photography because I believe life's biggest milestones and the quiet, everyday moments in between deserve to be remembered beautifully.



My style is timeless, warm, and authentic. Rather than stiff poses, I focus on creating an experience where you feel comfortable enough to laugh, connect, and simply be yourself.

The result is a gallery filled with photographs that look beautiful today and feel just as meaningful decades from now.

Whether we're documenting your growing family, celebrating your love story, or creating professional portraits, my goal is always the same: to create images you'll treasure for a lifetime.

My approach

 

I want your session to feel less like a photoshoot and more like spending time with a friend who just happens to have a camera.

I'll guide you every step of the way, so you'll never have to wonder what to do with your hands or where to stand. But instead of focusing on stiff poses, I encourage natural conversation, movement, and genuine connection.

Some of the most meaningful images happen in between the poses. The laughter after a joke, the quiet glance between partners, or the way your child wraps their arms around you without being asked.

My job is to create a comfortable space where you can relax, be yourself, and enjoy the moment. The beautiful photographs naturally follow.

 

Kind words from

KERRIE LESTER

"Courtney has an incredible eye for flattering poses and lighting, and she took the time to understand my vision for our engagement session. She made us feel confident and comfortable, and she captured me, my fiancé, and our story in such a genuine and beautiful way.


The entire experience was smooth, professional, and enjoyable from start to finish. I am so grateful for the memories she helped preserve. I highly recommend Courtney Simone Photography—5 out of 5 stars!"
