It is my personal mission to create art from the every day. elm&ivie was born from my passion for capturing real life in each and every image. It seems like so many of us end up with loads of digital images on our devices and not so much on our walls or displayed on coffee tables for all to enjoy. I'm grateful to be trusted with your memory making.

Connect with Cori

Hi! My name is Cori, and I am a portrait and wedding photographer as well as a mom to two kids. One of the best compliments I get from clients is that they feel like they've known me forever and are comfortable with me. I think that shines in my photography style, I am natural and fun!
I have been shooting professionally for over 11 years and what I love the most, is the relationships I’ve formed over the years documenting your love and milestones.
