Get to know me
Hi! I'm Marlee.
I'm a mom of five and the heart behind Anchored In Photography. I know how quickly these seasons pass, and I’m here to help you hold onto the moments you never want to forget.
More about me
Photography became meaningful to me long before it became a business. When I was little, my Mamaw gave me my very first camera. I remember standing in her yard, trying to photograph the hummingbirds she loved so much. Somehow, in one perfect moment, I caught one in mid‑flight. When I showed her the picture, her whole face lit up — and in that moment, I knew I wanted to create that feeling for other people.
My Mamaw was always the one quietly capturing life as it happened — the little moments, the everyday memories, the pieces of time you don’t realize you’ll miss until they’re gone. After losing her, those photos became treasures. They reminded me how powerful a single image can be… how it can hold a whole story, a whole feeling, a whole person. That’s the heart behind why I pick up my camera today, and why creating memories for others means so much to me.
Even though families are at the center of my heart, I photograph so much more than that. I’m here for every season of your life — weddings, maternity, boudoir, seniors, dance, sports, and all the moments in between. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, stepping into a new chapter, or simply wanting to freeze time for a moment, I’m honored to be part of your story.
I serve Grayson, Kentucky and the surrounding areas with a clean, warm, timeless editing style that will still feel beautiful years from now. I’d love to capture the moments that matter most to you.
