Photography isn’t just about the final images—it’s about the experience, the memories, and the way a single photo can take you back to a feeling, a place, a version of yourself. When you invest in photography, you’re investing in something that lasts far beyond the moment.
My approach is laid-back and intentional, focused on creating a space where you can simply be. No forced poses, no pressure—just an experience that feels natural, with images that feel like you. Below are my core offerings, but if you have something else in mind, let’s talk.
Elopements
STARTING AT $3,000 IN OREGON AND UTAH
Elopements are for couples who want to strip away the expectations and create a day that feels true to them. Whether you’re exchanging vows in the desert, on a mountaintop, or somewhere deep in the backcountry, I’ll be there to document it all—the big moments, the quiet in-betweens, and everything in between.
2. Story-First Photography
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.
3. The Wild, the Unexpected, and the Real
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.
6. An Experience That Feels Like an Adventure
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.
7. Connection Over Perfection
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.
8. A Seamless & Stress-Free Process
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.
1. A Laid-Back, No-Pressure Approach
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.

4. Deeply Rooted in Landscape & Emotion
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.
5. Guidance When You Need It, Space When You Don’t
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.
9. More Than Just a Photographer
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.
10. Photos That Feel Like You
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.
