hello

it's so NICE TO MEET YOU

If you’re here, that means you’re exploring my website — welcome! I hope you’ve had the opportunity to browse my portfolio and get a feel for the experience I love creating for my families.

My name is Chaunva. I’m a wife, a mother of six (yes, I carried and delivered all six!), a daughter, a sister, and a friend. I’m married to my soulmate, Jamie, and together we’ve built a beautiful life centered around faith, family, and love.

Motherhood has shaped so much of who I am, which is why capturing these fleeting moments means so much to me. From glowing maternity portraits to sleepy newborn curls and growing little personalities, I understand just how quickly these seasons pass.

My goal is to create more than beautiful photographs. I want every family who walks through my doors to feel cared for, guided, celebrated, and deeply seen while creating artwork that will be treasured for generations.
