Hey, Loves!
I am Cortney!
The face & heart behind C. Haugen Photography.
I am just a crazy, [little bit weird], goofy girl, addicted to coffee, tacos, a good bargain & horses. I am the proud mama of 1 gutsy & energetic girl, [ fur-mama of 1 jerk of a cat, 2 rowdy labs, a goldfish, donkey named Earle & TWO big-hearted horses] and am happily married to my best friend and supporter, Jason.

Why Photography?
A little backstory for y'all.
I started all of this because my husband told me 'YOU CAN DO THIS'. That I was creative enough and could capture moments of our daughter, animals and life without having to pay someone else to capture it for me.
I practiced every damn day. I have failed. I have learned - I am still learning.
With time, I opened myself up to friends + family, and with time, the public.
Since 2020, my lil' business has boomed in growth, expanding and reaching out to New Prague, Minnesota and its surrounding areas.
Logos Described:
There are three logos dedicated to C. Haugen Photography.
Classic:
Clean cut + basic - a handwritten signature of my logo that you will find on my social media sites,
Watermarking:
Simple + Artsy - a peony is my favorite flower, and it also symbolizes love, honor, happiness, romance + beauty = ALL THE THINGS I LOVE TO CAPTURE.
Artistic:
A rare find to the public - this one was designed uniquely for me + my small business. So what does all this 'stuff' within this image mean?

Little girl = my daughter, Hayden
-
Two Horses + Donkey = our horses - Hunter, Charlie + Earle
-
Photographer = ME - who else?!
-
Peonies = love, beauty + happiness (also my favorite flower!)
