I can always tell when an engagement photoshoot was fun, and when it just looked good. The best engagement photoshoot locations in the US don’t just look good; they change how the whole day feels. The fun ones are a little unhinged in the best way. There’s wind, a bit of a climb, maybe a […]

If you’re reading this, I already know you want something fun, different, and maybe a little wild for your engagement photos. Latourell Falls is exactly that! You hear it before you even see it. That low, steady roar that makes you so excited you even chose to do a waterfall engagement in the first place. […]

A sand dunes photoshoot at Glamis feels way more like an adventure than a photoshoot, and that’s why I love it so much. It’s windy, massive, messy in the best way, and honestly not the kind of place where everything goes perfectly, which is exactly why it feels so real. You’re climbing dunes, getting sand […]

Most couples picture an elopement in Arizona as a quick ceremony at a scenic overlook, but it can be so much more than that. It can be a full weekend tucked into a space that actually feels like yours. Slow mornings with coffee on the porch. Getting ready without a timeline breathing down your neck. […]

The wind started picking up right as the sun dropped toward the horizon. At first, it was just a breeze moving across the ridges. Then the sand began lifting off the dunes in soft waves, sliding across the ground and catching the golden light. Within minutes, it was everywhere, in our hair, in our shoes, […]

An Arizona elopement isn’t about checking off a location; it’s about how the desert feels when the light hits. As an Arizona elopement photographer, I’ve seen firsthand how the right light completely transforms the experience. It’s the stillness before sunrise when the air is cool and quiet, or that slow-building warmth at golden hour when […]

Searching for places to elope in Arizona can feel like the internet is stuck on the same five spots. Red rocks. Big overlooks. Desert cliffs… with a line of hikers just out of frame. They’re beautiful. They’re also busy. If you two want privacy, pine trees instead of parking lots, and a day that feels […]

Planning a beach vs. mountain Oregon elopement isn’t about choosing the “prettier” backdrop. It’s about choosing how you want your day to feel. Oregon doesn’t do predictable. It does mood swings and fog that rolls in mid-vow. It does golden light breaking through storm clouds like it planned it all along. B&G started their Cannon […]

Yellowstone in February isn’t soft. It’s steam hanging in the air. Snow under every step. Bison walking through valleys like they own the place (because honestly… they do). It’s a layer up, adjust your gloves, board a snow bus, and commit to the experience kind of day. And that’s the best part! A Yellowstone elopement […]
