Wildflower Photo Co. Adventure elopement and destination wedding photography. Welcome to Wildflower for adventure elopement and destination wedding photography.

I'm Karissa, a lover of all things exploring and nature. My husband (and second shooter) Mike and I spend most of our free time hiking, camping, and falling more in love with each excursion. Travel has been a huge part of our story, and if you've found your way to this corner of the internet, it's probably a huge part of yours, too. Over the course of my wedding photography journey, I have fallen

in love again and again with couples' stories, sense of adventure, free spirits, and their unconditional commitment to each other. I feel like the luckiest person in the world each time a couple asks me to help capture the start of one their best adventure yet!

Stepping into 2026 with heart first ❤️
Turning this little corner of the internet into more of a photo & video diary of our lives + work and snap shots into the heart of what we document and less of a polished portfolio. Here’s a glimpse into L&Z’s day—moments we will never forget. ✨

12/19/2025

We bonded over mountains, long drives, and that deep-rooted love that comes from growing up with places like Lake Tahoe shaping who you are. From our very first call, I knew these two were special. Adventurous in spirit, grounded in love, and carrying the kind of warmth you don’t forget. Exploring one of their favorite local mountain spots in the Angeles National Forest for their engagement session still stands out as one of those quietly magical days I’ll always hold onto.

Not being able to be there on their wedding day was genuinely one of the hardest moments of my year because I adore these two and wanted so badly to be there but watching it unfold through the eyes of my incredible team, Alex + Savannah, has been such a gift. Every photo feels alive. From Louisa’s dad making their stunning floral wedding cake, to bingo at the reception, to all the unscripted moments in between, this day was threaded together with so much heart.
Big Bear, October light, mountain air, and two people who feel so deeply at home with one another. Louisa + Justin, this day was nothing short of perfect 🤍 Congratulations, beautiful friends!

Danny pulled off the sweetest surprise proposal for Courtney at Staghorn Nursery in Santa Monica, complete with a greenhouse filled with disco balls (her absolute favorite).
Being part of the planning and documenting this moment was pure magic.
So happy for these two!

A love letter to the Murrey family and my hometown, Lake Arrowhead 💌
This sweet family spent their week jumping off the dock, swimming in the sparkling lake, and soaking up all the magic this mountain town has to offer. Photographing their laughter, connection, and joy was such a gift—it felt like capturing summer itself.
Thank you, Murrey family, for letting me document your story in this beautiful place. Lake Arrowhead, you’ll always have my heart. 💛
