MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Elise — a wife, mom, book lover, outdoor enthusiast, and storyteller with a camera. I guide couples to some of the most beautiful places in the world and capture their love in photographs that feel timeless and true.

I believe marriage is one of life’s most sacred promises — a vow that deserves to be remembered, celebrated, and cherished through every season. The images I’ll take for you are more than just photos; they’re tangible reminders of your love, a legacy you can look back on, relive, and pass down for generations.

Storyteller

Your elopement day is about so much more than beautiful photographs — it’s about the promises you’re making, the joining of two lives, and the first chapter of an incredible new story. Through my lens, I capture not just how your day looked, but how it felt. Each image becomes part of the foundation of your love story — a story you’ll continue to build on and cherish for years to come.

 FAQs

  • This day is not an hours long photo shoot. Your elopement day is thoughtfully designed for you to fully immerse yourself in the experience, with me there to document the journey as it unfolds naturally. While we will set aside some time for specific portraits, the majority of the images I capture will focus on the genuine, candid moments that arise as you enjoy your day to the fullest.

  • Once you’ve filled out my contact form I’ll be in touch to set up a phone call or facetime and we’ll chat about your vision for your elopement day. If we’re a good fit and you want to move forward I will send you your personalized contract; once that is signed and you’ve paid your retainer I will send you a guide to start planning and make sure we get the absolute best possible photos of your elopement day!

  • At this point in time I shoot most elopements solo, but if you’d like to have a second photographer there the day of your elopement I know some rockstar photographers who I always love working with. There is an additional fee for second shooters.

  • I deliver a sneak peek within one week of your wedding and the full wedding gallery within eight weeks. I know it’s hard to wait to see something you’re so excited about, but so much of the magic of creating your gallery happens after the photos are taken and I want to make sure I deliver the best possible product!
