Behind the lens

Hi, I'm Carly.

I'm here to tell your story through creative solutions.

About me


From a young age, I’ve been drawn to photography and the way it tells a story through capturing moments in time. What began with being my uncle’s go-to model for family memories soon sparked a desire to pick up the camera myself—a passion that’s been with me since I was just eight years old.


CJ Creations was born in 2023, first through small graphic design projects for local businesses. As my network grew and I’ve stepped into a career in marketing, new experiences inspired me to expand CJ Creations into something more: a way to help others tell their stories.


I’m based in small-town Indiana, building a life with my husband in our hometown. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me with an iced coffee in hand, planning our next DIY project, or spending time with family. Photography, marketing, and DIY projects fuel my creativity (and coffee keeps me going!), but connecting with others is what truly fills my cup — and it’s my favorite part of being a photographer. I believe God designed us to live in community, and through this business, I hope to grow in the talents He’s given me while building connections and serving others with creativity and purpose.
