Courtney Lively

Owner and Lead Photographer

Courtney Lively is a versatile photographer who has built and maintains a highly successful photography company in Phoenix, Arizona. Her company, Courtney Lively Photography (CLP) was established in 2009 and focuses on event, wedding, portrait, and corporate/brand photography. As the owner and lead photographer of CLP, Courtney runs a very successful business in it’s entirety – this includes, but is not limited to business development, marketing, operations, accounting, photography, editing, billing, contract writing and client management.

CLP maintain’s over 600 happy clients both big and small, from individual families to fortune 500 companies like Deloitte, Google and even her alma mater, Arizona State University. Courtney believes her success in business is largely due to her years of dedication both on the ice and on the field. Growing up in Oak Park, California, Courtney stumbled upon ice hockey at 5 years-old and never looked back. She played on multiple high-level elite teams growing up (including The Anaheim Lady Ducks and The California Selects) but ultimately decided to take an opportunity to play division 1 soccer (her second love) at Arizona State University, where she was a Scholar All-Region Athlete from 2004-2007 and Team Captain for the 2006 and 2007 seasons.

Today Courtney is married to her husband Ryan, and has two beautiful children, Calvin (6) and Suzy (4) – She plays hockey twice a week with her mens league team, The Scottsdale Glassbangers, where she is the only woman in the league. As a leading scorer on the team, Courtney enjoys taking the boys to school on the regular. 😉

"If I could, I would have Courtney follow my family around so she could document all of our moments. We have had several family sessions and the pictures from each one are my most valued possessions. She is a joy to work with and makes you feel so comfortable, and she is AMAZING with kids. She makes sessions fun and it really doesn't feel like a photo shoot, it's more like hanging out with a friend. I always look forward to our sessions with Courtney."

"If you are looking for an amazing wedding photographer you would be blessed and fortunate if Courtney is available for you. She was the best decision we made for our whole wedding! The images were absolutely incredible. She was so professional and flexible with our needs, She captures all the right moments staged and candid. Went out of her way and above and beyond what we expected, to do an amazing job. Personally I would have paid double or even triple the prices for her quality of work. You will not regret choosing her."

“Courtney is without a doubt one of the best portrait, family and wedding photographers in Arizona. After researching several photographers, once we met Courtney and saw her work, she quickly became our first and only choice for our wedding photographer. Her attitude was amazing, her work impeccable and she was a consummate professional throughout the day. A wedding can certainly be a stressful day and somehow she managed to keep everything light and fun while keeping everything and everyone on schedule. There’s no question that we would recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a true professional photographer!”

“I have two words to use to describe Courtney and the camera: super awesome. Courtney has done many photo sessions for my family and the end results are always amazing. She has a great way of not being afraid/shy while taking pictures with little ones – she literally was on the ground making funny faces with our son Micaiah. She was also not afraid in directing us to get good shots. We were also very pleased with the quality of the pictures. The color pictures were vibrant and the black and white pictures had a soft, classic quality. Courtney is always accessible and responds quickly to any requests/questions. Courtney is great to work with and we would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a photographer. We have decided that we will be using her from now on for all our family shoots!”

“Courtney is an unbelievable photographer! Not only does she take amazing photos, but she has an uncanny ability to put the subjects at ease – adults, children and pets alike! We love both the casual candids and more formal photos she has taken of us. We continue to use her again, and again – pregnancy shots, baby pics and even important family events! I highly recommend Courtney Lively Photography!”
