Courtney Wahl Photography

Hiring me as your photographer starts off with a consultation, I like to find out exactly what my clients would like, if there are any inspiration images. If you don't know that is ok too!! I have questions I can ask to find out your style to help create perfect images for you.

I confirm the shoot before the day.
Next I show up early the day of the shoot, either to look around for ideas or just to be on time.
During the photoshoot I talk to my clients and get great moments and reactions. I usually talk about food, because who doesn't love food!

After your photoshoot, I do a facebook preview with a day or two from the event. The full gallery of images can be expected 1-2 weeks for portrait clients, 4-6 weeks for wedding clients.
My galleries can be shared, and are protected for 10 years.

I double check after the gallery is delivered to make sure you love your images!

Hi I’m Courtney Wahl (formally Turpyn) I just got married in 2015! So I very much know how important that special day is!!! I also have years of experience photographing them too.

I'm very excited to be a new mom to my son Perrin who joined us August 2016.

I have had a camera in my hand since I was little always trying to document life.

I started my photography journey on film, even learning in high school and college to develop my own.

Since digital photography started I’ve been in love with it. I can’t imagine doing what I do now with photography on film. Though I do now collect old film cameras, and still have my original cameras in my display.

I gained a passion for photographing people when I went back to photography school in 2009, and really haven’t looked back since. I strive to connect and bring out emotion in every photo session or wedding I have ever shot.

I love talking to my clients and finding out about you to make your photos special. By learning your loves, about your animals or favorite foods it helps to build a connection. That connection really helps to make your images shine.
