Elopements, Real Love Stories

Who’s this girl that’s obsessed with evergreens, anyway?

Inspired by nature, driven by connection.

I’m not just here to take pretty photos, I’m here so that you can relive your wedding day all over again, every time you look at them. As a Florida-based wedding and elopement photographer I believe the best images come from genuine connection, intentional storytelling, and trust.

Whether you’re saying your vows barefoot on the beach, at the top of a mountain, or at a tucked-away venue surrounded by your favorite people, I’m there to document it all exactly as it unfolds: the small glances, the laughter, the in-between moments that make your day yours.

I’ve traveled from coastlines to national parks capturing love stories that are as unique as the people in them. My approach is grounded in helping you feel comfortable, confident, and completely yourselves in front of the camera. Your love isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your photos shouldn’t be either.

Each image I create is designed to reflect your day: intentional, raw, and full of love.

Like evergreen trees,
my photos are everlasting. 

Hi, I’m Emily! I'm a traveling wedding & elopement Photographer telling your love story through
digital & film - motion & still.
