HI THERE, I'M ELYSA

I've always been drawn to anything creative, and photography has been my outlet since I was young. It’s my craft, and I take it seriously. I draw inspiration mostly from every day life - in people’s stories, travel, books, movies, sometimes just wandering down a city street.

There is so much beauty in ordinary moments if you take time to observe it - I truly believe that my observational nature and artistic eye is one of the greatest strengths I will bring to your wedding day. I feel so much joy when capturing the subtle details and fleeting moments - loving glances shared throughout the day, tears of joy during significant moments, and stolen kisses.

Now, a little about me… I’m a foodie through and through. I wake up every morning excited about coffee and what I am going to eat that day. Basic, I know, but I am who I am. I love trashy reality tv and snuggling with my chihuahua, Enzo. I also love to travel, and it is one of the best things about this job. I am always ready to pack a bag and travel to document your love.

Favorite drink:

Small Joys:

a well crafted cocktail, calendar invites, iced lavender lattes, and psychological thrillers

I was amazed by Elysa's impeccable work! The gallery she sent me was truly outstanding. Our elopement was quite stressful, but she managed to turn it into an amazing experience. I strongly believe that people who are created to create, do what they do best. I look forward to working with her again in the future and wish her all the best, as she is truly one of the best!
