Hi There, I'm Falon!

I am a lifestyle photographer based in Cullowhee, NC, and the surrounding areas.

I’m genuinely so HAPPY you’re here!


Why I Picked up the camera...

I’ve been drawn to cameras for as long as I can remember. The first time I picked up a camera was for my yearbook class in high school 6 years ago. Photography took on a deeper meaning to me when I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. I brought a little Polaroid Snap camera to my treatment sessions. I documented the process, not realizing then the power that those photos told and how much they would inspire me to keep pushing to do better!

Those images eventually became a documentary project meant to show younger patients that cancer doesn’t define your creativity or your future. That experience changed how I see photography and storytelling. It showed me the power of a camera as a tool! Sometimes photos aren’t just images; they’re proof that we got through something and memories that will last a lifetime.


Where I Am today!

I graduated from McDowell Technical Community College with an Associate’s in Photographic Technology, and now I’m pursuing my B.F.A. in Film & Television Production at Western Carolina University. Studying cinematography and editing has shaped how I shoot everything from portraits to weddings to my documentary work. I couldn’t balance school, shoots, and film sets without my wonderful boyfriend, Cade, supporting me along the way!


At the end of the day, I’m happiest with a camera in my hands.


Why DO I Do This?

Photography helped me survive hard realities and celebrate successes, and now it helps me connect with other people in meaningful ways. I want to pass this feeling down to my clients. I want my work to make people feel seen. Whether it’s a wedding, a creative portrait, or a candid session, I’m here to tell your story with the same care I give my own.


I Can'T Wait To Learn More About You!
