We all know that life moves fast.

None of us want to look back + feel like we missed it.

That's where I come in.

I'm here to help you slow down + capture what's happening right now;

in your family, in your business, in yourself.


Hi, I'm Barrie.

I was raised in North Carolina, before attending the University of Virginia. I fell in love with photography while using a point-and-shoot camera while on a backpacking trip through Europe. I didn't know what I was doing, but I knew I was hooked. I started taking film photography classes and learned how to develop + print my own images. I worked for several professional photographers in Charlottesville, VA before following my dreams to New York City where I worked for a clothing company and spent every Saturday exploring a different neighborhood.

Then I followed my heart, and a very kind-hearted firefighter, back to North Carolina. We eventually tied the knot + now have two hilarious kids who provide me with endless laughs and reasons to pull out my camera.


Currently, I am very into : a whiskey sour before dinner, learning something new (wood-working), not-hustling, reading chapter books to my kids, Muji 0.38 black pens, the smell of coffee (not the taste), and the sound of my husband mowing the grass.


Thanks for being here. If you like what you see, get in touch.

Let's see what we can create together.

Testimonials

"Prior to working with Barrie, I was wary of family photos. How could anyone capture twin 6-year-old boys and their chaos? How could anyone convince them to stand still long enough to smile, let alone capture their personalities in timeless photos? Working with Barrie alleviated all of my concerns because she not only made the whole experience fun and painless, but was able to connect to my family in such a short time."
