If you're looking for the perfect blend of candid, editorial and natural shots that capture the essence of your love, I'm your girl.
Imagine a relaxed photo session where you can be yourselves but with a photographer guiding you the whole time, capturing all of the natural and genuine moments. If this sounds like you, let's create something special together.
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 shoot. 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.
My goal is to create a laid-back and relaxed atmosphere
I know it can be nerve-racking to get in front of the camera, but I want to make it easy for you so I can capture your love as authentically as possible.
I will be guiding you throughout the ENTIRE shoot!
I will either guide you into poses that bring an effortless look or give you lots of prompts that get you moving.
I don’t want your photos to feel like everyone else's
I want them to feel like you. Leading up to our shoot, I’ll work with you to understand your preferences and vision so I can tailor your session accordingly. Let’s dream up your dream photoshoot together.

"Our engagement photos are amazing, and aptly capture so much joy"
There are too many words to write to describe how in awe we are of Elysa’s work! Our engagement photos are amazing, and aptly capture so much joy. It’s hard to pick a favorite because they are all favorites in different ways 🥺 Additionally, working with Elysa was easy and fun; we had a few different ideas for our location and with her planning/expertise the whole shoot was seamless.

I have never accidentally lost or deleted a session of photos. The camera I shoot with is dual slot - this means that as I'm shooting, the camera writes images to 2 memory cards. If one memory card were to fail, I have a backup of all of your images. After your session, the first thing I do is back up your photos on an external hard drive as well as my editing software.
