Hey there! I’m Tris, the artist and founder behind

Candescent Collective.

My photography journey is driven by a simple, powerful mission: to transform the quiet, unscripted beauty of your story into radiant, timeless art.

When you look through my lens, you will see a focus on rich, beautiful color and enduring warmth—a direct reflection of the love stories I have the privilege of preserving. I believe the most luxurious thing I can capture is authenticity.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me nose deep in a fantasy book, a PlayStation controller in hand, or exploring the beautiful views and fun activities of North Carolina. Now that I’ve settled in to the area, I am thrilled to work alongside couples who value deep connection, fine art, and the creation of their family’s first heirloom. I can’t wait to hear your story!
