Weddings and elopements are some of the most joyful stories I get to capture—it’s about more than pretty pictures, it’s about real moments that feel like you. When I look back at my own wedding photos, it’s the candid, unposed snapshots that bring me right back to that day, and that’s exactly what I strive to create for others: a story full of emotion and memory, not just smiles for the camera. Whether it’s watching Mount Rainier wake up in wildflowers, chasing alpenglow on Mount Baker, or lacing up boots for a golden hour hike with no audience but each other, these moments are what make your story unforgettable.
