Hey there! I'm Courtney Carteret, a storyteller with a lens, a wanderer at heart, and a connoisseur of life's beautiful moments. For nearly a decade, I've been capturing the essence of the world around me through the art of photography. What started as a journey through landscapes and travel, cruising in my trusty 1974 VW Westfalia, has evolved into a passion for lifestyle and portrait photography.

My focus lies in capturing the essence of life's moments—whether it's a family exploring the wilds of the desert, a couple lost in each other's laughter, or an individual embracing their true self. I specialize in crafting authentic narratives for brands and curating soulful lifestyle portraits that resonate with viewers on a deep level.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with numerous families, couples, and individuals, each with their own unique story to tell. Additionally, my work has been featured in publications like Outside Magazine and showcased in campaigns for esteemed brands such as Deckers Brands, Lems Shoes, Viakix, Eddie Bauer, Roxy, and REI.
When I'm not busy behind the camera or immersed in the editing process, you'll likely find me dancing to the infectious beats of Jason Derulo or Camila Cabello, belting out every lyric to a Miranda Lambert ballad, or diving into the pages of a gripping suspense novel or a soul-nourishing memoir. Yoga, travel, podcasts, and quality time with my partner, Kyle, and our four-legged daughters, Annie and Patsy, are also staples in my life. Oh, and guacamole—truly, it's the elixir of life!
Thank you for stopping by CourtneyCarteret.com. Whether you're here to explore my portfolio, inquire about a session, or connect over shared interests, I'm thrilled to have you along for the ride. Let's celebrate life's extraordinary moments together and create imagery that will last a lifetime.
