CONNECTION seeking, MEMORY keeping, TYPE OF female found AND MULTI-MEDIUM artist —

I’ve always been a storyteller. I approach my work with a quiet sense of care, drawn to what feels natural, lived-in, and true—the way light settles into a room, the softness of a fleeting glance, the moments that unfold without effort. My work lives there. With an intuitive, thoughtful approach, I document your story as it is—honest, unforced, and deeply felt—creating imagery that feels both refined and personal, like something you’ve always known but can finally hold onto. So when you return to these photographs, you don’t just see them—you feel them, timeless in the way they linger and true in the way they were lived.

Inspired by the Moments
that Feel most like Home

You know you found “The One” when your heart feels safe at home. When your person walks through the door and all is good again. When quiet gestures of care and gentle expressions of affection evoke the most expansive, most profound feelings of comfort. When the record player is spinning and the wine is almost through, and there’s nothing else you’d rather do than be exactly where you are:

At Home in Love

Courtney founded Geist House Photo and Film to capture these fleeting but momentous moments for her clients. To honor the intimacies housed by two hearts intertwined and document love in action. An artist at heart and a student by nature, Courtney taught herself everything she knows about photography, videography, and visual storytelling before officially launching her business in 2019.

These days, Courtney feels most at home behind the camera, capturing timeless expressions of true love in keepsake photographs and film. It is not unusual for Courtney to befriend her clients along the way, taking special care to nurture genuine relationships and build mutual trust between herself and her clients before the biggest day of their lives. There’s simply nothing else she’d rather be doing.

THE EXPERIENCE

TAKE ME WHERE YOUR LOVE IS

To be able to travel the world to capture love stories is just one of the endless joys of my career.

This allows me to combine my passion for photography with my love for exploring new places and experiencing different cultures. There’s something incredibly special about witnessing love unfold against the backdrop of stunning landscapes and iconic landmarks around the world. Whether it’s an intimate beach ceremony, a majestic mountain elopement, or a romantic cityscape wedding, each destination offers its own unique charm and beauty, providing endless inspiration for capturing unforgettable moments. As a photographer, I thrive on the excitement and adventure that come with traveling to new destinations and I’m dedicated to helping couples bring their dream destination weddings to life. From scouting the perfect location to coordinating logistics and capturing every magical moment, I’m here to ensure that couples have a stress-free and unforgettable experience as they embark on this exciting journey together.

If the thought of an overseas wedding or elopement has crossed your mind, I am here to help make that happen. Take a look at the places and dates I’ve got planned for 2026 below — maybe I’m already where you need me to before your wedding.
