Hi, I am Joye

I am the mother of three children: a pediatric nurse, a Marine, and a professional dancer, fully grown and on their own. I've been married to my husband Mike for 31 years and counting. I'm a mountain girl at heart but have called Austin my home for over 30 years and love the area landscape and warmth! ​

I've been passionate about photography my entire life and after a career in speech pathology, working with brain injured and stroke patients, I decided to start my photography business. ​

I am a lifestyle photographer that specializes in family sessions, senior portraits and dance photography. I love sports and animals as well. I'm happy to try my hand at anything you may need! I look forward to meeting you and helping you capture moments that last a lifetime! 


Testimonials

The Boyer Family

“What started out as our son's senior portrait session evolved into a really fun and successful family shoot. Joye worked with us patiently and was so creative in the process. We ended up with a perfect family photo for our holiday card as well as beautiful photos of our kids to give to the grandparents. She chose a perfect location and knew exactly how to work with the scenery & lighting to make us look our best. Joye made this experience enjoyable & relaxed. Even my husband said he had a great time!”

A simple look always works but I love to photograph beautiful, unique and crazy attire as well. I enjoy family shoots, senior portraits and dance shoots but will take on a menagerie of shoots to fit your needs. Take a look and give me call to book your session!
