Short Bio:
My adventure with photography started about 10 years ago when I bought myself my first SLR and has never stopped since then. The more time I spent behind the camera the more I realised how much I loved it. The hobby turned into a passion and now my aim is to get my own studio. Showing people my own vision of life gives me a great satisfaction. I love to capture moments in people’s lives to give them memories that last!

Hey Hey hey!! I’m Charlotte -or Char as my bff's call me! I am a 40 year old stay at home mom to Sam (11) and Wes (9). Although I am a full-time photographer - I am also a full time cook, housekeeper, teacher, nurse, chauffeur, counselor.... you know the rest!! I love my boys... all of them, including my dear husband of 13 years, Scott. I love our family vacations, the color pink, investigative news shows, anything with barbecue sauce on it, chocolate chip cookies and my Yellow Box flip-flops! And yep... I do have a love for photography. I finished high school in 1987 at the age of 16 and went straight off to college. I have a degree in Marketing, which has really helped my business grow. I believe "less is best" and to keep my business honest! I started this business out of a desire to just get better photos of my first born son. I knew what I wanted, but no one else seemed to. Word spread that I was interested in making this hobby a business and it took of from there!! I have never advertised nor do I set up booths at local shows. I am strictly word of mouth. I believe your reputation is the only thing you need. If you do not take care of your clients... someone else will. I think honesty is the best policy - so if I make a mistake- I deal with it head-on. I believe in keeping your business legal and yes, paying your taxes. I love, love, love meeting people - so photography is THE best way to make new friends. I specialize in Newborns through their first year, High School Seniors and Weddings. I know I cannot be everything to everybody - so specializing in these three areas was the only way to be successful. I am constantly soaking up information, information, information. A good seminar is so worth the investment - And I love meeting up with my photog friends!
That's pretty much me!! Thanks for reading!

Short Bio
I grew up around photography. I can remember growing up and thinking my Mom’s Canon AE1 was the coolest
thing ever and took every opportunity to be a big girl and use it. As I got older I became “that girl,” the one behind
the lens capturing every Birthday party, Christmas, Bridal Shower and every social event in between.
I remember the days of film, taking my prints to the lab and anxiously waiting for them to come back. Every time
it was like opening a present, sometimes you’d get photos that were like the socks you get from your Aunt, but
every once in a while you’d get the awesome radio control car or video game you’d been obsessing over all year.
Those photos are what always kept me excited about photography-the ability to capture that awesome moment
and preserve it in time forever. When digital first arrived I was a skeptic but now I’m in love- there’s nothing like
the satisfaction of finishing a shoot and literally running through your front door & loading that card to see how
the photos turned out.
When I had my son last July, I took photos constantly; it was amazing to see the changes in him every day.
As I began posting photos of him, friends started to ask me if I’d take photos of their family, baby or child. I
finally decided this lifelong passion was more than just a hobby. I never would have known how many steps it
takes to start a business; branding, taxes, licenses etc. I got it all squared away and officially launched Missy B
Photography in February of 2011 & I’ve been snapping ever since!
I love working with families and especially love being able to hold little tiny newborns and capture those first few
days when they are so fresh & new. With every shoot my goal is to create beautiful photographs that capture true
emotion and personality that I hope will be treasured for years to come!
