Photographer & Educator
Hey there, I'm Camryn, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to my corner of the internet!
Living in the sun-soaked beauty of southern California, I'm a firm believer in capturing life's moments, savoring every bite of sushi, and embracing the adventures that come our way. My world is enriched by the presence of my loving husband, our spirited 5-year-old daughter, Sunny Dayze (yes, her name is a reflection of our perpetual optimism!), and our two delightful wiener dogs who keep us on our toes.
Photography has always been my passion, and I've found my calling as a personal brand photographer. I'm not just someone who captures images; I'm a storyteller who crafts narratives through the lens. My mission is to empower entrepreneurs like you to step boldly into your CEO roles and create a lasting impact. Together, we'll transform your vision into a compelling visual story that resonates with your audience, driving sales and sparking genuine connections.
Beyond the lens, I'm a dedicated community leader. I thrive on creating spaces where entrepreneurs can connect, learn, and grow. Through workshops, masterclasses, and immersive experiences, I help you unlock your potential and unleash your inner CEO.
Life is about more than just business—it's about making a difference. By partnering with me, you're not only elevating your brand, but you're also contributing to a ripple effect of positive change. Let's work together to amplify your presence, elevate your business, and leave a legacy that impacts lives.
Thank you for joining me on this exciting journey. I can't wait to get to know you and help you shine brighter than ever before.
Here's to embracing sunny days, indulging in the finer things, and capturing the essence of your extraordinary journey.

I’m Camryn, your
go-to gal for everything-and-anything photography.
Hey friend!
Clients mostly find me through referrals because I pride myself on client experience.
I know you’re nervous about taking photos and that’s what I’m here for: to turn your awkward into awesome. I’ve been called a ‘photo ninja’ – you’re going to be surprised at how incredible you look.
I am inspired by genuine love, playfulness, bear hugs, contagious laughs, the newly confident eyes of a CEO growing her dream business, and the transformative conversations I have with my 1:1 coaching clients! When you hire me, we’ll develop your story together.
My Family is Everything!
"Life Experiences Over Material Items" is our family motto. We sold everything when my daughter was three months old and moved into a 24 ft RV to show our daughter the world (all while driving to photoshoots!) I adore our adventurous, gypsy lifestyle.
Meet our Dog Hero
Our daughter calls Hero her ‘hairy brother.’ We take him everywhere and he’s flown first class more than most people! Hero’s a water baby who loves paddle boarding and jet skiing. He keeps our hands full and our hearts even fuller.
Our little hippie Sunny
She really does live up to her name. Sunny is a sassy, spicy, sweet free spirit. She’s three going on thirteen. She’s a wild child with NO FEAR and she is our world!

Let's take a trip
down memory lane!
2011
Started off as a Photography Assistant
I got HOOKED on photography when I developed film in a dark room for the first time. My parents told me photography was NOT a career. I figured I’d prove them wrong!
2012
Studied Photojournalism at Long Beach State
Loved the ‘photo’ but struggled with the ‘journalism’ part. After getting F’s on every paper, I had to change my major. This was a struggle-fest: my photography career felt like it was over before it began.
2013
Got a Stable Corporate Job
When my photojournalism studies didn’t work out, I figured I’d conform and go corporate. I started working with O’Neill clothing and basically got paid in clothing and beer!
2014
Horses Led me Back to Myself
An equestrian photographer friend needed help shooting horse shows. I went part-time in my corporate job so I could work with her. I made pennies but I got to combine two things that lit me up: horses and photography.
2015
Got the Loving Push I Needed
Well, I got laid off from my corporate job. My then-boyfriend (now husband) found my high school photography in the closet. He thought they were incredible and told me that he’d support me no-matter-what in pursuing my dreams. I decided I was going all in!
2016
Everyone Starts Off on the Struggle Bus
I’m pretty sure I shot my first wedding for $400 – all on my own! I threw myself into growing my book of business and prayed I wouldn’t mess up too much. I took every job I attracted, from corporate events to a friend’s friend’s Mom’s wedding.
My favourite quote:
With movement comes clarity!
2017
The Hot-Mess-Express Becomes BLESSED
My hard work ethic helped my photography business BLOOM! I went from second shooting weddings and doing horse shows to really building my network, utilizing my connections, and strategically growing my business until I was shooting weddings every weekend.
2018
Branding Brilliance
While I will always love my couples, shooting weddings every single weekend took me away from my baby girl. That was time I knew I’d never get back. At the same time, women in the business group I was part of really struggled with their visual brand. I knew I could help.
2019
My First Mini Branding Session!
Helping female entrepreneurs grow their business through branding photography totally re-ignited my fire and brought me back to LIFE! After capturing women doing what they love, I saw how they started attracting their dream clients with confidence.
2020
COVID-19 Hit Like a Ton of Bricks
I met a ton of photographers online trying to grow their business. With twelve years of photography business growth under my belt, I knew I could help the next generation. I started coaching a few women 1:1 and they made back their investment within a WEEK. I knew we were on to something here…
2021
Where are we today?
Just a week ago my Dad gave me a big hug. As he embraced me, he said “I'm just so damn proud of you.” Something clicked for me in that moment too. My career flashed in front of my eyes and tears rolled down my face. I'm. Freaking. DOING IT. I’ve got big dreams for where we go from here, and it’s all possible because of YOU!

She really took the time to get to know me and my brand and encouraged me to go for my dreams.
Melissa - Honeybearevents
Her positive attitude helped me feel relaxed and myself when we did our branding shoot. All of her direction spoke perfectly to my brand and is the reason I feel confident in starting this new journey! I highly recommend Camryn for your branding and any photos! Her look and feel is amazing!
I’ve worked with many different photographers but she is by far my favorite to work with.
Camryn is simply the best photographer to work with! She and I were able to work together on a personal branding session for my business. I was expecting to walk away after our session with one or two good photos but after the session, I have more favorite pictures than I know what to do with.
Jasmine - Savy Marketing
I hired her for branding photos for our company and they turned out better than I ever could have imagined.
I absolutely hate being in front of a camera and am so uncomfortable when having to take pictures but Cameron was able to totally put me at ease and the photos came out so cute - and I was even able to have tons of fun during the process. I would highly recommend her services!
