Hello, I’m Becky!
On the naming of Arise…
A few years ago I woke up to the painful reality that I wasn’t living my life. I had been existing for the sake everyone else, at the expense of myself. My family wasn’t thriving, some of my friends had literally died, my marriage was dying and I could not name a damn thing I wanted in life. I was in denial about it all.
The day came when I realized I had a choice. Arise? Or stay dead.
I chose the grief-filled work of rising. Along the way, Arise Images was born from a choice to live, seek joy, and become a woman who desires to take up some space in the world. In this new chapter, I am chasing a joy-filled life that desires to elevate the voices of women around me in hopes they, too, learn to heal and thrive.
How it started…
14 years ago I became a mom and what I didn’t know then was that motherhood wasn’t the only beautiful beginning. Because of one crappy, little iPhone I carried in my back pocket and one precious, new baby girl I carried in my arms, I fell in love with photography.
I discovered I had an eye for the beautiful mundane of parenthood that people resonated and connected with. After many years as a hobby, I started Arise Images with a focus on family lifestyle photography. I had know idea how hard it would be to own and grow my own business.
My passion within photography…
As a female entrepreneur I am drawn to the stories of courageous women who take that vulnerable leap of faith to create a business.
I find myself wanting to tell your story as the one behind your business. You manifested that good idea into a beautiful reality! You are the one taking risks and making mistakes in the name of building a business. I admire you, I want to be like you, I AM you and I’m here to elevate your story as I learn to do the same for myself.

Not only is Becky talented at her craft, she is such a pleasure to work with. She made an important photo shoot feel enjoyable and so natural when I’d typically be nervous. Even the time flew by in the shoot! Becky is just as professional as she is kind and versatile in her photography as well. Expect high client-photographer communication and quality work! I highly recommend Becky to be anyone’s photographer.
