The Short Story

Carey Pace is a Natural Light Documentary Photographer and blogger who believes that beauty waits to be uncovered in the ordinary moments of everyday life. She chases creative motherhood, honesty and authenticity in her writing, and images that tell stories. She has an ability to capture the essence of her subjects, showing the reckless abandon of childhood. Her images are alive with both motion and detail.  

She grew up in western North Carolina, went to college in Raleigh, spent 14 years in northeast Tennessee, and then her family was relocated to south-central Virginia for four years. In June 2019 her family embraced more adventure and relocated again, much further away, to the Springfield, Massachusetts area. Carey writes about the things on her heart like motherhood, the trials and triumphs of raising children, and loving Jesus with all her heart.
