Valley of Fire 💍 🔥.

We planned this afternoon just barely 24 hours prior.

When this sweet couple inquired with me, they had been referred over and I just happen to be available for them.

I was so excited to share them with this special and unique location that fit the vision they had for their day perfectly. The afternoon was beautiful too. The weather dropped below 95 (and if you have been in the desert in June, you know that starts to feel cool 😉 ). The wind was blowing. The sun gave us a show among the red rocks as it went down at sunset. It was honestly perfect.

The trust these two gave me to help plan and capture their day in less than 24 hours is an honor and I cannot wait to share these views with future couples 📸✨.

Sunset into dusk engagement sessions will always be some of my favorite moments - especially when my couples set me loose to just freely create their images 🥹🫶🏻! Thank you for the trust that created some of the best dusk photos I have taken to date - I am obsessed 🤩.

It’s that time of the year where I spend more time soaking in the mountains - hiking with my couples - than I do sitting behind my desk. The time of the year I crave. Where I feel most free, more appreciative of this life, and where I have this incredible privilege to get to know two people in the wilderness where I watch their connection in ways no one else that day gets to see, and even more importantly, I get to capture. How lucky I am, to be invited into these moments with each of you and beyond that, endlessly thankful for the trust and love. I cannot wait for you to see where 2026 is leading us 🥹🫶🏻.

The NEON MUSEUM and Fremont Street after dark with A + J who flew all the way from Prague to elope here in Las Vegas 🤩🤌😮‍💨!

So I will say this: CONGRATULATIONS you two 🥹🫶🏻! Our time together is not over, we will be seeing you sometime in the future in your home towns and thank you both for trusting us and letting us capture this extra special day for you 🥹🥹!

Valley of Fire 🔥 🖤.

Just less than an hour from my house, I get to drive the stunning scenic route through Lake Mead to access this otherworldly place every time a couple invites me to capture their wedding day here. T + J had the most beautiful intimate elopement with less than 30 of their closest friends and family here just a few weeks ago and the entire set up was done by the incredible . We spent the afternoon with enjoying the views around us and afterwards, T, J, and I went back into Las Vegas for a few nighttime shots. Thank you both for having me come and capture your day and get to know you both and be apart of the start of your next beautiful chapter together 🫶🏻.

For anyone wanting to elope at Valley of Fire, reach out and I can point you in the right direction to correctly plan your special day here with amazing vendors just like 🖤!

A desert ghost town.

A soft sunrise.

A good group of people to collaborate with.

A good group of people is what I love most when I choose to do styled shoots. It’s not about getting something to put into my portfolio to me (though don’t get me wrong, it’s a bonus!). It’s about the people I get to meet and collaborate with. The small amount of time I get to talk with other creatives just like myself. The fun we have when we are able to just let loose and create without the pressure behind us. It’s healthy for me. It keeps my spark alive and most importantly, I am still learning every time I step into these spaces with these people 🥹🫶🏻. Learning things that I take back to my own space and implement into my own business. As a creative, I never stop learning nor do I limit myself. I have 500+ weddings and elopements under my belt, and I still show up to learn. I hope each of these individuals know how special they make these events for me and how thankful I am to companies like for creating healthy, safe spaces for us come together in and make new friends, teach each other, and create memories ❤️.

Enjoy the variety of lighting and color and unapologetically playing with harsh shadows. I had a blast being creative and miss each of you!

Cows 🥹🖤.

K + A had the most beautiful country rustic wedding outside of Sedona, AZ, not that long ago. The farm, the decor, their family, their vendors, everyone who showed up for these two on this day truly made it one to remember. The day was relaxed, moved with grace and a lot of love. The kindness these two carry with them extends to every single family member they have as well and it truly showed in every image. Thank you for both for trusting us and taking us on such a special journey. You have a special place in mine and Corey’s heart and oh how we cannot wait to share the rest of your gallery 🥹🖤!
