Everything I offer is fully customizable, so your day reflects exactly what you want it to.
You get to dream it up. I’ll help make it real.
The truth is, most elopements still end up following a structure.
Strict timelines, limited coverage, and days built around what’s easiest instead of what actually feels right. And when everything is rushed or pre-planned, it’s easy to miss the moments that matter most.
Imagine a day that moves at your pace.
Maybe it’s just the two of you, or maybe it’s your closest people-10 or so friends and family who feel like home. You wake up slow, spend the morning together, and head out to a place that actually means something to you.
Maybe that means riding into the backcountry on horseback, spending a full weekend out there, unplugged and fully in it. Maybe it’s exploring somewhere new, or returning to a place that already holds memories. Or maybe it’s something simple, like a walk through your favorite park, with enough time to stop, take it in, and not feel rushed through any part of it.
There’s space for everything that matters, and nothing that doesn’t.
That’s what this can be.
And because everything I offer is customizable, your day is built around you-no set timeline, no expectations, just something that feels right from start to finish.
Your day isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your photography shouldn’t be either. Everything I offer is fully customizable, so your coverage is built around what actually matters to you—whether that’s a few hours, a full day, or a multi-day experience. We’ll create something that fits your vision, not force you into a package that doesn’t.
On the day of, my goal is for you to feel like you can just be in it.
I’ll guide you when you need it, help things flow naturally, and step in when direction is helpful-but I’ll also give you space. The quiet moments, the in-between, the parts of the day that happen naturally… those are the things that matter most, and I want you to be fully present for all of it.
This might be your first elopement, but it’s not mine. I’ve guided dozens of couples through this process, and I’m here to help you navigate it without the stress. Whether you need help with locations, timelines, or just want to talk through ideas, you can reach out at any point along the way.
Hi, I’m Bella.
When I’m not photographing, you can usually find me somewhere outside-riding in the backcountry, driving as far as possible down dirt roads, or already planning the next adventure. That love for wild places and slower moments is what shapes the way I approach photography-laid-back, intentional, and focused on what’s real.
"She was wonderful to work with and made everything feel so natural. My husband and I aren't big on lots of posed photos, and Bella was the perfect fit. We loved that many of our photos capture people's candid emotions throughout our day!" - Jessica

I don’t just show up and snap pictures—I immerse myself in your story. From the way the light falls on your face to the quiet in-between moments, I focus on capturing the feelings, not just the visuals.
Some of the best moments happen when we embrace the elements—wind whipping through your hair, rain falling softly as you say your vows, a belly laugh that turns into happy tears. I love the unplanned, the raw, and the real.
Even if we’re just in your backyard, I want this to feel like an experience, not just a photoshoot. Whether that means driving down dirt roads, hiking to the perfect spot, or embracing whatever the day brings, I promise it’ll feel like something worth remembering.
I don’t care if your dress gets dusty, if your hair isn’t perfectly in place, or if things don’t go exactly as planned. What matters is the connection, the way you look at each other, the way the moment feels. That’s what I focus on.
From inquiry to final gallery delivery, I keep things easy and clear. You’ll know what to expect every step of the way—no guessing games, no stress, just a smooth process that lets you enjoy the experience.
I don’t believe in stiff poses or forced moments. My job is to create a space where you feel comfortable, so the photos naturally reflect who you are. Whether it’s an elopement in the mountains or a branding session in your studio, I keep things relaxed and easy.
The places we exist in shape our stories, and I draw inspiration from the landscapes around us. Whether it’s the vastness of the desert, the rugged mountains, or the stillness of a forest, I use nature as a backdrop to enhance the emotion of the moment.
I’m here to help, whether that’s location scouting, timeline planning, or just making sure you feel confident in front of the camera. But once the moment comes, I step back and let things unfold naturally—so the photos feel like you, not a performance.
If you need a problem solved, an extra hand, or someone to hype you up—I’ve got you. I’m here to make sure you feel comfortable, supported, and seen throughout the entire experience.
At the end of the day, that’s the goal. Not just pretty pictures, but images that take you back—to the feeling, the energy, the moment exactly as it was.
Got a few more questions before making it official? I’ve got answers! If your questions isn’t answered here, reach out and I’ll get you an answer asap.
Most people haven’t! I don’t photograph models—I photograph real people. If you show up ready to embrace the experience and lean into the art of it, you’ve already done the hardest part. I’ll take care of the rest.
Nope! The people who hire me do it for the experience and my editing style. The final images you receive are carefully curated and edited to reflect my artistic vision.
All travel fees are included in my pricing, so there are no surprises. Just make sure to note where you’d like to shoot in your initial contact form so I can send over the most accurate pricing guide. Oregon is my home, meaning no additional travel fees!
Absolutely! I can be as involved (or uninvolved) as you want. Whether you need location recommendations, timeline guidance, or just a sounding board for ideas, I’m here to help however I can.
Weather is completely out of our control, so we roll with whatever nature gives us—rain, snow, wind, or golden sun. Unless conditions become dangerous, we’ll embrace the elements and make magic. Extreme weather or acts of God are handled on a case-by-case basis.
Once a contract is signed, the retainer is legally non-refundable. If you need to reschedule, a new retainer will be required to secure a new date. Any additional payments already made will be applied to the new date.
Each package has a listed “minimum” number of images, but I don’t set a strict cutoff. If it’s a good photo, you’ll get it! I do my best to capture every meaningful moment, and if you ever feel something’s missing, I’m happy to take a second look.
Nope. I don’t alter bodies in Photoshop beyond removing temporary blemishes (I follow the 2-week rule—if it’ll still be there in two weeks, we keep it). If there’s something you’re self-conscious about, let me know so I can be mindful of posing.
I’m officially based in Bend, Oregon, but I cover all of Oregon and beyond for elopement and branding projects. Travel availability is limited.
