I’m Carleigh, the owner and photographer at Sweet Poppy Studios. I’m nestled in Northern California and I get to photograph love stories all over the globe.
I absolutely adore earthy venues, relaxed couples, and those stunning wedding dresses! Oh, and let’s not forget the epic dance parties. These moments capture the joy and love so perfectly.
My style is all about emotion and connection. I love showcasing the beauty of your venue in every shot.
Some of my favorite spots to shoot weddings? Napa, wine country, along the California coast to Mendocino, San Luis Obispo, and of course, beautiful Lake Tahoe.
My rates cover travel, and I offer a bunch of options. Think assistant photographers, engagement sessions, film photography, wedding albums, boudoir, and more.

I’m Carleigh. I’ve been capturing weddings since 2013. Crazy, right? I started with film while traveling the world after college.
At first, I wanted to be an attorney. I even went to law school! But once I graduated, I kept daydreaming about photography. So, I took a leap. I left my job at a Silicon Valley law firm and dove into photography full-time. Best decision ever!
In the last ten years, I’ve shot hundreds of weddings. My style has changed over time, but one thing remains: the emotions. I still love capturing the genuine moments and memories from every wedding. It never gets old! Want to know more? Let’s connect!
