Payton Wright Photography

As a mom to two wonderful kids, Carson and Emma, family is at the heart of everything I do. Being a mom has given me a deeper appreciation for the small moments that often go unnoticed but are filled with the most meaning. I married my best friend in 2016, and our love story inspires me every day to capture the unique connection between couples and families. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me baking homemade bread, crocheting cozy creations, diving into a good book, collecting plants, or enjoying a cup of coffee (or two!).

Why Me

Choosing a photographer is about more than just the images—you are inviting someone in to your most intimate & precious seasons of life. This is something I don’t take lightly. There’s important things that I put at the forefront of my client experience to provide you the best images.

• Personal Connection: I tailor each session and wedding experience with my clients’ comfort in mind. Whether we’re laughing together during the shoot or discussing your vision ahead of time, I make sure your experience is both fun and relaxed. I pay close attention to your photography wants and needs to ensure we create beautiful images that feel true to who you are.
• Experience & Expertise: With 5 years of experience photographing a wide variety of shoots and events, I’ve developed the skills to capture both the big picture and the smallest details. Whether it’s a sweeping landscape at your wedding or a tender moment between you and your child, I work hard to make sure every session feels comfortable, fun, and reflective of who you are.
• Heartfelt Approach: As a wife and mom, I understand how fleeting special moments can be, which is why I pour my heart into every session. I love making the experience enjoyable for everyone, from excited kids to even the most camera-shy husbands! I aim to be more than just another photographer—I want to be your photographer, someone you can trust for all the special moments, events, and seasons in life.
• Creative Storytelling: I don’t just take pictures; I tell stories. Every session is a chance to create a narrative, whether it’s your love story, your journey into parenthood, or the joyful chaos of family life. Alongside capturing genuine connections, I’ll also make sure to get the perfect shot of everyone smiling—perfect for grandma’s fridge!
