        01 / The moments

        Big landscapes.
        Small, meaningful moments.

        I’ve called Bend home since 2015 and photographed hundreds of elopements. A quiet lakeside ceremony, a forest trail, or vows with mountain views—your day should feel like you.

        Explore my elopement photography and packages for intimate weddings and outdoor celebrations.

        02 / The feeling

        A day worth
        coming back to.

        The movement, the laughter, the words you share. Video offers another way to remember how your wedding day felt.

        I film video add-ons myself. Ask about elopement montage videos and ceremony coverage alongside your photography.
