Elopements and Weddings

Weddings are events we remember for a lifetime, and photos can capture moments on your wedding day to preserve beauty and relive memories for years to come. I want to get to know each client beforehand to learn what is most important to photograph on their wedding day. I strive to take creative and traditional photos of the bride and groom and their families as well as candid photos of the wedding guests while preparing for and celebrating after the ceremony. When requested, I photograph all the details of the day including rings, dress, flowers, and other personal touches.

In addition to being a photographer, I can also help you plan your adventure elopement here in the Eastern Sierra. I can recommend stunning and private front-county and backcountry sites for intimate elopements and micro weddings.

Lifestyle Sessions

Photo sessions should be fun! I love planning leisurely strolls through beautiful country, more adventurous hikes, climbing trips and relaxed evenings in your backyard to provide your family with a snapshot in time that will last for generations. The Eastern Sierra is beautiful in all seasons. I plan sessions in the awe-inspiring buttermilk country in winter and spring, meadows with wildflowers in the summer, and mountains with aspen groves in the fall.  I scout each location a few days before planned sessions to assess the light, safety, weather, and overall appropriateness of each site for all of my clients. I'm always up for new locations and creative ideas, so don’t hesitate to suggest a favorite spot.

“At home” sessions (at your home or in the hospital) are also available to document your labor, delivery, birth, and the first 48 hours of your newborn’s life outside to capture this special time for your family in comfort.

Family Films

I have fallen in love with making films. A short film is an amazing way to document your family or special event. My film-making style mirrors my photography- outdoor, natural light, and documentary style. Contact me to create your film at your home, in an outdoor location your family loves, or at your small wedding or elopement.
