“I started photography because I wanted to do something artistic, creative and personally gratifying that would make a positive impact and elevate others.”

Originally from Michigan, I reside in Kingsport, Tennessee, with my husband Lonnie L. Salyer, a vinyl record collector and historian. We have two adult children— Barbara (30), a beauty entrepreneur and licensed esthetician living in Nashville, and Cody (25) who is a veteran Marine also living in Kingsport. I have recently been promoted to "Lotta" - my precious grandson, Jadon, was born November 4th, 2021. Draven (2), our Blue and Tan Frenchie puppy is the latest addition to the family. (I can’t wait to get him a little brother.)

My Promise to You

When you work with me, not only do you receive the royal treatment, I promise gallery-quality photography and in-house professional printing and editing that captures your most special moments and provides uniqueness and individuality. When it comes to helping you achieve flattering poses and bringing out the best in you, I will relax those nerves and remove needless fears. If you are a business owner or entrepreneur, we will instantly connect –I’ve been there, I can envision what you are trying to put out there. If we are shooting boudoir, you will have 100% confidentiality and peace of mind knowing I am the only other person seeing or working with your images. All of the work is done in-house. We can do your shoot in my modern style Downtown Kingsport studio, or on location in Northeast Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia—or anywhere else.

Sound good? Great! Let’s do this!
