You do not photograph Mount Hood. You wait for Mount Hood to decide if it wants to be photographed.

Lizzie and Juan are mountain people. They got engaged on top of a mountain in Spain. One of their first dates was a fourteener in Colorado. So when they planned their elopement around skiing and l ice climbing on Mount Hood, it was never really about the photos.

It was about who they are.

We started the day before at the International Rose Test Garden in Portland with both families together. Juan’s parents in from Spain, in the United States for the first time, meeting Lizzie’s family for the first time. That part of the trip mattered as much as the mountain.

The next morning the lift was closed. It had rained the night before and the precipitation had frozen the run. Despite being unable to take the chairlift up, the lodging we stayed at had its own authentic chair built into the house.

Conditions were not what we wanted. But they hiked up in their wedding attire and skied anyway, and that part was entirely them.

I take on a small number of weddings each year. If yours is built around a place that matters, reach out.

Have you seen florals this candid?

answered Lara and Deegan’s wedding with a day that kept handing us moments like the one above.

Each bridesmaid got her own bouquet. One held calla lilies and chartreuse. The next, something moody and trailing. The next, orchids that fell almost to the floor. Nine women, nine bouquets, nine different stories in their hands.

A staircase entry at with three floral mechanics in one frame. Ceiling installs over the reception that had me shooting straight up more than I have all year. I keep going back and forth on a favorite.

From Colorado proposal to Washington wedding day, I was there for all of it.

Amy and Philip got married at Manito Golf and Country Club in Spokane, Washington. I was there for the proposal in Colorado. I was there for the engagement session. And then I flew out, joined the welcome party, met both families, and shot the whole day.

That kind of access changes what you can see when it comes to meeting their people.

The willow trees on that course are something else. Coming from Colorado I was not expecting that much green. The drone shot over the pond at golden hour was one of the most beautiful golden hours I’ve captured.

Amy went to Washington State and the golf cart we rode around in was a surprise given by her mother. We used it. Obviously.

Congratulations to these two. Getting to watch this one from proposal to wedding day was a privilege.

Ciara and Juan met riding in the mountains in Utah. So when it came to their engagement session, skiing and snowboarding were never optional.

We shot at in spring slush conditions, which if you know, you know. Denim outfits, cowboy hats, midday light. We skied together before I ever picked up a camera, which is how I prefer it.

Ciara’s sister Aisling came out for the day. She was supposed to be visiting. She ended up carrying gear and hats down the mountain while keeping pace with two expert skiers and a snowboarder. Not a small ask. She was incredible.

My sessions run longer than most and that part is intentional. It’s not just about hitting the right light conditions. It’s about watching how you move after an hour in front of a camera. Whether you start to slouch. Whether you need water and won’t say so. Whether you’re more yourself on the lift than you are in a posed frame.

I’m paying attention to all of it. Because on your wedding day, I already know how to take care of you.

If you want a session that actually feels like a day and not a shoot, let’s talk.

I keep ending up at the wildest of parties.

Splits and backflips to start the evening. Lasers, cold sparks, piggy-backing pinata, wigs, and karaoke by the groom to close. Somewhere in the middle the fire alarm went off and honestly it felt appropriate.

and Mickey got married at and threw the best party I’ve been to in a long time. The vows were real; promises, laughs, honesty.

Then the bubbles started flying and we were done with the sentimental portion of the evening.

Congratulations to these two.

If this sounds like your kind of wedding, you’re my kind of couple.

Styled shoots are how I show couples what’s actually possible.

This one was at - a hotel built around sustainability, architecture, and a design point of view that already had something to say. We didn’t have to manufacture a concept. We just had to listen to the space.

Desert palette. Stone textures. Pops of yellow. Gold where possible, even through paper detail. sourced sustainable suiting from , found his ceremony tie at a thrift store for $7, and then also ended up being our groom, with his actual girlfriend as our bride. That’s my honest preference for styled shoots: real couples, because you can’t fake that.
design built the ceremony arch mechanics out of repurposed trees from her own collection. The shoes Katera wore were thrifted. The jewelry was from including a watch for Glenn. The contrast of that is kind of the whole point.
Chaco from showed up because yes, is dog friendly, and that felt worth showing.

Playing a role in the creative direction and planning for shoots like this has given me real empathy for couples planning a wedding. Negotiating with vendors, holding a concept together, making sure everyone’s working toward the same thing; I’ve done it enough now to understand what it actually takes-in a compressed timeline of just a month or two. And it makes me better on your wedding day.

When the vendor team is aligned, you feel it in the images.

Lariah & Terrance in Charleston, SC.

The palm trees, the velvet tux, their faces walking back down the aisle. Some days just have it-even when the rain slows things down!

Second shooting alongside for this one. Grateful to be traveling and working alongside friends!

If you’re planning a wedding in Charleston or anywhere in the Southeast, I’d love to be part of your team. It truly is special down there!

T & M let me into their actual life for this one; their town, their park, their dogs, their rhythm.

I stayed at their house, skied with Matthias, and by the time we shot I already knew how they moved together.
Which meant I barely had to direct them at all.

One of the things I ask every couple: while I’m getting set up, don’t wait for me-just hang out, flirt, exist with each other. I might not say I’m ready. But I’m watching. And that’s where the real images come from.

We returned from downtown for the second half of this session to include the other members of this little family 🐶🐶

These two are getting married at Maroon Bells Amphitheater in June and we can’t wait.

J & P met on ski patrol, so photographing them anywhere other than the mountains would have felt wrong.

The day started slowly in Frisco with their favorite sandwich shop, and Denali 🐶 tagging along before we made our way to Mayflower Gulch. Avalanche gear packed. Skins on. Dog anxious for parents to get going. The kind of routine that already feels like part of their life together.

What I love most about sessions like this is that they are not built around forcing something. They are built around paying attention to what is already there. The way they move together. The way they prepare. The way they spend a day outside. The way this season of life already looks before the wedding even gets here.

We climbed, skied, chased golden hour, and made portraits doing an activity that actually meant something to them. Not just because it was beautiful, but because it felt honest.

For people who have built so much of their life around the mountains, it felt especially meaningful to photograph them doing what they actually love, with their pup, in the kind of setting that says more about them than any staged location ever could.

This is the kind of engagement session I’ll always say yes to.

If your relationship had a setting, what would it be? Mountains, city streets, your favorite coffee shop, or somewhere else entirely?

From the Sourdough chair to a celebratory champagne pop, this engagement session was pure fun and a little upside down.

Bryce grew up skiing these mountains, and some of the runs off Sourdough are actually where he taught May how to ski, which is exactly why this place means so much to both of them.

We spent the session taking laps, stopping for champagne, throwing snow at the Legendary Back Bowls sign, and soaking in a weekend that finally brought fresh snow just in time.

Color photos are waiting at the end, but this black and white set felt like the perfect way to start.
