The Wedding & Elopement Experience
YOUR DAY, YOUR WAY
*❀*
*❀*
I have a passion for working with couples, capturing your love through multiple medium options for memories lasting a lifetime.
Digital Photo, Super 8 Video, & Polaroids.
I am invested in getting to know you and your partner. Understanding your unique quirks and hobbies and incorporating them into your experience to give your photos the most authentic and meaningful feel.
Looking for a perfect coastal vibe? Or a nostalgic tall grass field with room to run and vibe? Born, raised, and well traveled around California— I’ve been lucky enough to visit the most beautiful areas all over the state and can help you find the most perfect location for your elopement! This is my favorite part of building your custom elopement package together. Just describe your ideal location to me and I can help you find your dream spot, along with a simple planning timeline while you enjoy your day to the fullest.
Not looking to elope and already have the perfect wedding venue? Love it— let’s add an engagement session to your wedding package, or talk about your personal wants/needs to create the perfect custom package for your big day!

I leave you with this..
It is so important to me that I express my gratitude for your and your partner for trusting me with such a special moment in your lives! Weddings and Elopements are incredibly intimate and personal, and capturing those meaningful, candid moments is something I truly value. My approach is centered on not just documenting the event, but preserving the emotion, the little details, and the unique story of your day in a way that feels authentic to you both.
I believe that this art is about more than just beautiful pictures—it's about creating lasting memories that you'll treasure forever. From helping you plan the timeline to ensuring you're comfortable in front of the camera, I'm dedicated to making sure your experience is as seamless and memorable as possible. Your love story is one-of-a-kind, and it deserves to be captured in a way that reflects that.
I would be honored to be part of your big day and help create images that will take you back to these moments every time you see them. If you have any questions or need more details, I’m happy to discuss anything further!
