Cassandra Hartley

Greetings! I am a real estate Broker by day and a photographer and/or blogger, by turns, in the evenings. I have worked for the same vacation rental company for over seven years and have gradually ascended my way up the ladder from receptionist to a senior manager.

I'm lucky enough to live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of NC, so I'm never at a loss for material for my blog or my camera. I affectionately refer to the Blue Ridge Parkway as "my happy place". I truly love my native High Country area, and hope to be able to imbue others with the same passion through my works.

Recently my photography work has been featured nationally on a Weather.com article about Fall Festivals, as well as on the official website for the Carolina BalloonFest of Statesville, NC.

If you'd like to see more of my work, please check out the links at the bottom of this page. Blue Ridge NC Guide is my blog about the High Country, and Memories by Cassandra Lea Photography is my own small business. Thank you!
