About Graceful Perceptions
Hi, I am Grace! I am a Charlottesville native with a passion for capturing life’s precious moments. I picked up the camera roughly five years ago, and have been following my dreams of becoming a full-time portrait photographer ever since. I was born with Mild Cerebral Palsy, so I know what it is like to have challenges. I fell in love with photography because it allows me to express who I am fully, overcoming those physical challenges. Behind the lens, I truly feel free. I’m able to capture the beauty I see within us as human beings. I truly get to connect with everyone I work with, and there is not a more rewarding feeling than that. From a young age, I have always loved connecting and building relationships with others. As someone who has struggled with my own insecurities, I strive to use my passion to help others feel and value their true natural beauty. I aim to do this by making my clients feel comfortable and valued through our time working together. If you'd like to inquire about a session, please consider emailing me first instead of matching the lead, as thumbtack does charge for each one! Thank you! 😊
Reviews
Grace was a wonderful photographer and extremely helping in not only capturing a very important moment but helping me plan the best time and places for the shots. Can’t recommend her enough!
She is very sweet and very professional, she is quick to respond! We love how the pictures turned out! We definitely will be having her take our pictures again! ✨
She did a great job of making my engagement everything I wanted it to be and the pictures turned out amazing .
Grace took some awesome professional headshots for me. Her price was $50 under the next option too! She immediately got back to me and was super flexible with scheduling. I didn’t know exactly what I wanted/needed but she worked with me to plan the perfect shoot. Very kind and fun in person and makes you feel as ease. She got the edited photos back to me promptly and I love them. Especially since she incorporated my ideas into the whole process. That helped it feel more personal. Overall I highly recommend!
Grace was fantastic! We had group family pictures taken and she did a great job in gently directing the shots. The quality of work was outstanding and Grace was a joy to work with. Highly recommend! A++
I never like a photo of me but with Graceful Perceptions, I had a hard time picking a photo as I liked every single one. I also appreciated the fast turn-around and the personal attention. Highly recommend!
Grace was perfect throughout the proposal and having her be sneaking taking some pictures. She was very helpful and the pictures came out wonderfully!
Such an amazing job with my graduation photos! She is the best!
Grace is a wonderful person and photographer to work with. I planned for her to be at my proposal to capture the candid moment of me down on one knee. She knocked it out of the park and the pictures are wonderfully done. I would highly recommend! She keeps things light/fun and we very much appreciated her.
