Why couples choose me
A PHOTOGRAPHER AT HOME IN THE WILD
- A naturalist's knowledge of the outdoors. I'm a biologist by training and also work as a naturalist guide on the BC coast. I read weather, tides and light as part of my everyday work, so your timing is chosen with care and a backup plan is ready before you need it.
- Editorial by design. Your images are composed with intention: thoughtful framing, beautiful light and gentle direction, so you can relax while the results look effortless and timeless.
- Direction that feels like fun. No stiff poses or forced smiles. I guide you with playful prompts and gentle cues that bring out real laughter, closeness and connection, and turn genuine moments into a real testament of your happiness together.
- Respect for the places we visit. I follow Leave No Trace principles and help you choose locations that are permitted, safe and protected for the couples who come after you.

FAQ
What is an adventure elopement?
An adventure elopement can be many things, but in short its an unconventional wedding - whatever you would rather be doing than celebrating in a banquet hall. It can involve sporty activities you two enjoy or travelling to a luxurious cabin in the woods or taking a heli to say your vows in a truely unique setting.
Can you help us find a location?
Yes, absolutely. I know lots of beautiful places in southern BC and I can give you lots of suggestions, whatever you have in mind.
How long does it take until we get our photos?
After our session you will get a sneak peak to some of the best photos within 72 hours. I guarantee a full delivery within 3 weeks after the event.
Do you also offer drone photography?
Yes, I do offer drone photography and in some packages it is included but you can add it to any other package as well. In some locations or venues flying drones might not be allowed so I will make sure we don't break any laws.
Do you do destination weddings?
Yes! I love to travel and to capture the magic of new places. Whether that's out in nature or a luxury resort is simply up to you. Please keep in mind that additional travel expenses will be added to the package price if the event is outside of Vancouver.
Are travel expenses already included?
Travel expenses are included for sessions that take place within 100 km or roughly 1.5 hour drive from Vancouver. When you get a personalized offer travel expenses and accommodation is also included unless stated otherwise.
How do I book or inquire?
Easy, just send me a quick message through my contact form and I will answer you as quickly as possible.
Do you do hiking and camping elopements?
They are actually my favorites :) I also know lots of good hikes in the area and can help you find the best choice for what you have in mind.
Ready for your adventure?
Tell me what you're dreaming of, even if it's just a feeling for now.
I reply within 24 hours usually, and together we'll turn it into a day you'll never forget.
I book a limited number of elopements each season, so reaching out early gives you the best choice of dates and locations.
