BEHIND THE LENS

Hi, I’m Ava, and I believe the most beautiful moments are the ones that almost slip away unnoticed. The laugh in between poses, the way the light hits just right, the way two people look at each other when they forget anyone else is watching. Those are the moments I live for, and those are the memories I want to give back to you, not just for now, but for generations to come.

I’m here for the lovers, the families, the milestones, and the everyday magic. My photography is part documentary, part daydream. Rooted in reality, but touched with a sense of nostalgia and whimsy. I’m drawn to edits that feel timeless, cinematic, and film-inspired, where emotion matters more than perfection.

I graduated from Clemson University with a degree in Graphic Communications, where I learned the technical craft and science of imagery. But beyond the training, I’ve always seen life in photographs — little frames everywhere, waiting to be noticed. That passion is what drives me every time I pick up my camera.

Photography, to me, is more than pictures. It’s proof of love, of connection, of being fully alive in a fleeting moment. If you let me behind the lens, I’ll capture your story the way I see the world: full of color, movement, tenderness, and light.
