Hi, I’m Rhiannon!
When I get an idea in my head, I chase it full throttle. I’ve always believed the things that light a fire in us are placed there for a reason — and I’m learning to follow where God is calling me, one step (and camera click) at a time.
​
My story started in a small Missouri town, where life was simple — family, wide-open fields, and county fairs. Photography entered my life as a 4-H project. I was that kid photographing livestock with a little point-and-shoot, never realizing those moments were planting the seeds for Western Lens Media.
​
Over time, that hobby grew into something much deeper — a calling to capture life as it is: real, emotional, and fleeting. My favorite part of being a photographer is knowing that years from now, these photos will become priceless memories. Families will look back, smile, and feel grateful to have those moments frozen in time.
After earning a degree in Agricultural Media with an emphasis in Advertising from Northwest Missouri State University, I’ve continued to combine creativity, storytelling, and connection in everything I do. Today, I balance my full-time role at Midwest Assistance Program, Inc. with running Western Lens Media — a brand rooted in faith, intention, and capturing soul-filled moments.
​
Outside of photography, I’m learning to slow down — spending more time with Jesus, seeking simplicity, and filling my life with what truly matters. Whether that’s a quiet morning with coffee and my Bible, a long walk, or an evening with my boyfriend here in Maryville, MO, I’m learning that peace often lives in the little things.
​
If you’re here because you value connection, authenticity, and photos that mean something — welcome. You’re right where you’re supposed to be.
