Protective by nature. Creative by craft.

I’m Taylor — founder of Iron & Ink Creative Co. I specialize in brand photography that works hand in hand with your story — bold, intentional images built to last.

Iron & Ink didn’t start with a business plan or a vision board. It was born in the middle of the hardest season of my life — a season where I felt stripped down to nothing. But God met me there. What felt like an ending became the soil for something new to grow.

Over the years, people close to me would ask for help — a logo here, a website there, some photos to tell their story. More than once I heard, “You should be doing this for real.” I didn’t know it then, but God was planting seeds to be sown in the middle of my brokenness.

This studio isn’t about me. It’s about Him — and the gifts He’s given me to serve others with excellence, honesty, and care. Iron & Ink is a reminder that beauty can rise out of ashes, that purpose can come from pain, and that every story (that’s you!) has inherent value worth fighting for.

At Iron & Ink, I create with intention and integrity. My faith shapes how I work — with honesty, humility, and the heart to serve others.

I believe in:

  • Intention → Every choice should be thoughtful and purposeful.

  • Strength → Stories captured with depth will stand the test of time.

  • Authenticity → Work that reflects the truth of who you are.

  • Service → Using my gifts to serve people well and honor God through excellence.

My heart is to show up with integrity and create work that’s meaningful and strong.

When I’m not creating, I’m with my two boys — my biggest motivation and my greatest joy. They’ve walked with me through seasons that tested everything, and they’re the reason I keep showing up with strength and faith.

I ride my motorcycle to clear my head and find freedom on North Carolina backroads. I write songs and play music, because storytelling has always been in my bones. And I hold onto my faith, because it’s the anchor that’s carried me through every high and low.

All of this spills into my work. Photography, for me, isn’t separate from life — it’s another way to honor God, tell stories, and create something lasting.

Every detail matters. Every story deserves to be told. Let’s tell yours with strength and creativity.
