Storytelling

Christy

Hello, I'm

...the storytelling photographer behind Wild & Woven Lens! I'm based just outside Indianapolis, and I spend my days documenting proposals, engagements, and wedding days across Indy, Carmel, and Westfield.

I trained in ballet growing up, which is probably why I still notice the small things…the tilt of a chin, the second before a kiss, or the way two people find their way back to each other in a crowded room. I also studied psychology in college, which only deepened that curiosity about people. And these days, being a mom has taught me more about unconditional, unscripted love than either of those ever could.

So why fairytales?

My freshman year at Butler University, I took a seminar built entirely around fairytales. Taking these stories apart revealed far more depth and meaning than I ever could have imagined, and showed me exactly why they've lasted for centuries. What stuck with me: fairytales were never really about dragons or forests. They're a way of putting words to the biggest, quietest parts of being human…the things we're working through, and the things we're reaching for. Our biggest fears and desires, wrapped in a story so we can hold them safely.

That's the lens I bring to your session. I'm not just documenting a day. I'm looking for the parts of your story that are bigger than the day itself.

What I Believe

• Your story deserves to be told in a way that feels like you.


• The in-between moments matter more than the posed ones.

• Authentic connection makes better photos.


• Laughter belongs in every session.


• You don’t need to be a model to be worthy of being documented.

Whether you just got engaged, you're planning your wedding, or you want a session that's just about the two of you, I'd love to be part of it.
