Hey y'all! I'm Avery,
PHOTOGRAPHER & coach
the face behind the lens and the brains behind a handful of crazy business ideas. Picture this: a kid from Memphis, raised in the laid-back vibes of Hawaii, who then decided to sprinkle a little Pennsylvania and Indiana into the mix before finding my way back home.
I have seen my fair share of the world, already traveling to over 20 countries (I have the tattoos to prove it). This has inspired and nurtured my obsession for photographing love around the world, shooting immaculate destination weddings.
Now, let’s talk business. From the young age of 16, I’ve been diving into entrepreneurial waters like it’s nobody’s business. Five ventures later, and I’m still riding the wave of excitement. When I’m not traversing the globe for destination weddings, you’ll find me stirring up ideas back in Memphis faster than you can say "startup."
It didn't happen overnight, sorry to disappoint you.
