HI! I"M CARLY!!! The face behind the camera at Carly Stopp Photography. I am a nurse, wife & mama to the sweetest little girls, Margot + Jillian, who are the inspiration behind everything I do.
I am a chaser of the perfect sunset, lightning bugs, lover of naps & country music, coffee addict, + craft beer lover. Unlike a lot of photographers around me, I wasn’t always “called” to be a creative, but I’ve never felt more at home with a camera in my hand. I am that one that friends + family are often annoyed by because I always need "just one more" picture. I am all about capturing those moments that only last for a few seconds, so you can look back on them for years to come. I became a mom in early 2021 + that’s when I KNEW. I was constantly taking photos of my daughter with everyone else. I’d put her to bed + look at the photos I’d taken that day + the one thought I always had was, “where am I?” My driving force is getting moms back IN the photos.
After becoming a mama, I quickly learned how quickly time passes, + how important it is to capture every moment possible. I strive to not only capture those moments for you + your family, but to create a genuine connection with each + every one of you.
xoxo, C
Un-Posed + Fun
I believe in capturing you exactly how you are. I introduce prompts when they're needed, but have a special way of telling your story in a unique and candid way.
Comfortable
Joyful
I love meeting new people + truly enjoy what I do. I leave every session so excited to go home + make magic with your final gallery! No family or session is lost on me.
Photo sessions are meant to be fun + carefree! Every one who has stepped in front of my lens has said "We're Awkward." Well I'm here to keep you laughing + comfortable!
