About UsHi! My name is Corrina, but many people call me CJ. I'm a twenty-something southern girl with a love for good food (especially seafood) and great company. I love to cook food and share it with friends in my backyard. I'm rarely seen without at least one camera in hand or in my bag. When I'm not working as a photographer, I am either teaching or writing.
I've been happily married to my high school sweetheart for six years. We live with our two favorite furbabies Riley and Frog. Work has taken me to various places across the county, but I make time to visit my family often and have adventures with my three sisters (taking thousands of pictures along the way of course!) |
Who Am I? |
I grew up with a camera in my hand. I received my first camera as a birthday present from my father in 1997. It was a Kodak 110. That was all it took. I was hooked. Since then, I have used multiple film and digital cameras. I'm currently in love with my new Canon and mobile studio set-up.
I began college in the fall of 2005. While in college, I was able to get involved in photojournalism and other advanced photography classes. In 2007, the ROTC program at ETSU contacted me about being the brigade photographer. From 2007 to 2009, I worked and traveled with the Buccaneer Battalion as their local photographer. As a journalism major, I also had many of my original photos published in local newspapers to accompany the stories I wrote. In May of 2010, I graduated from East Tennessee State University with a Bachelor of science in Journalism and a Bachelor of Arts in English. In 2014, I completed a masters degree in English at Kansas State University. |
Our History |
I started Ellen Belle Photography in 2009. I decided to name the company after my two grandmothers: Flora Belle and Barbara Ellen. Both were women that had taught me to be strong and compassionate. And they always encourage me to pursue my dreams. Since then, I have operated primarily out of the Northeast Tennessee and Kansas regions. Now, I am proudly relocated in Arizona and ready to continue capturing the joyful moments in life. Take a chance on the ordinary!

What Our Clients Are Saying"Ellen Belle Photography is amazing. My photographer was very creative and had a great eye for detail. She knew of a lot of different places that others wouldn’t think would make a good picture and they would turn out great. She would also listen to some of my ideas and would take time to find the perfect shot. I would recommend Ellen Belle Photography to anyone." |
