your love story
on display, to cherish forever
KARLEE JO PHOTO
Meet Karlee
your new favorite third wheel!
I’m Karlee — a wedding and portrait photographer who believes your photos should feel like you. Not staged… not stiff… but honest, emotional, and full of the little in-between moments you’ll want to relive years from now.
I’m drawn to color, warmth, movement, and the kind of storytelling that feels both effortless and intentional. My work leans into natural emotion — the real laughter, the quiet glances, the hands that reach for each other without thinking. Whether I’m celebrating a couple on their wedding day or documenting a senior stepping into a new season of life, my goal is always the same: create images that feel timeless, lived-in, and deeply personal.
Photography, for me, is more than beautiful pictures.
It’'s connection.
It’'s trust.
It’s stepping into your story with care and giving you a space where you can simply be yourselves.
You deserve photos that remind you how this season felt, not just how it looked — the butterflies, the joy, the nerves, the excitement, everything that makes your story uniquely yours. I’m honored every time someone chooses me to document it.
If you’re looking for a photographer who’ll guide you with confidence, hype you up when you need it, laugh with you, cry with you, and capture the moments you didn’t even realize you’d want to remember…
You’re in the right place.
& I’m so glad you’re here.
"SHE MADE US FEEL COMPLETELY AT EASE AND TRULY CAPTURED US..."
"I can’t say enough good things about having Karlee as our photographer for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease and truly captured us, not just posed photos, but the real emotions, laughter, and little in-between moments that we’ll treasure forever. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and I’m still in awe of how beautifully she documented the most special day of our lives. It means the world to have someone so talented behind the camera and so supportive beside us through it all. Thank you, Karlee, for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever."
