I’m not just your Washington elopement photographer - I’m your partner in this venture. A prepared-spontaneous kind of gal. I’m a planned-adventure kind of bitch, if you will. We’re talking hiking spreadsheets and pins on Google Maps. A car with a full gas tank and an extra set of socks under the seat.
There’s a lot that goes into finding (and creating) those magical, unforgettable moments that life is all about, and that’s what I’m here for.
Because this isn’t just about photos. It’s about capturing the heart-pounding, I-can't-believe-this-is-my-life kind of love you’ve found.

There’s so much freedom that comes with eloping that it can be hard to figure out what the perfect experience looks like for you. Where do you go? What do you do?

Washington is a magical place to elope because there are so many options! From the beach, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, woods, lakes or islands, Washington has it all. So much though, that it can be overwhelming. Three national parks, over 140 state parks, and 8 national forests - take your choosing!
If the ocean or Washington beaches are special to your relationship, you might want to consider a San Juans elopement. Off the northwestern coast, nestled between the Washington mainland and Canada’s Vancouver Island, the San Juan Islands float in a temperate climate, which makes it a great year-round option.

If you're looking for small town vibes and an amazing local brew, Bellingham, Washington might just be your perfect destination. There are tons of parks, hiking trails, kayaking and other activities around town, and it's a great gateway to the North Cascades or a Canadian adventure. Plus, it just happens to be my home town. Let me show you around my back yard!
Looking for 360-mountain-views, a road trip or a hiking adventure? Then the North Cascades might just be the spot for you. From Lake Diablo to Heather-Maple Loop, there are tons of options for adventure in this (less visited - read: less crowded) National Park.
My favorite mountain in the state. It may not a national park, but it's every bit as beautiful as one. Hiking trails, fog, alpine lakes, waterfalls - Mt. Baker has it all, without being too far away from town.
I've spent years hiking hundreds of miles all over the state, so I mean it when I say the Central Cascades has some of the most stunning views. Closer to Seattle and other major cities, the Central Cascades has tons of options for every kind of activity - from scenic flights to crafting your own wedding rings.

One of the most visited national parks in the country, Mt. Rainier has some of the most iconic viewpoints and lookouts in the state. If you're comfortable with dealing with (or dodging) the crowds, Mt. Rainier makes an epic elopement location.

Although it's one of the more remote destinations, Olympic National Park is stunning every season of the year. From coastlines to mountains, forests to waterfalls, this massive National Park boasts endless options for your elopement adventure.

Just a bit further south from Mt. Rainier, Mt. St. Helens offers a different mountain adventure. Explore the regrowth forests and enjoy the wildflowers when they're in bloom, or stay past sunset for epic milky-way photos.
If you're looking to get away from the forests and woods on the west side of Washington, the east side of the state might have more of what you're looking for. Rolling wheat fields and rock formations create a stunning backdrop for adventure here.
If waterfalls are your jam, this is where we're going. You can spend all day (or a weekend, really) chasing waterfalls to your hearts content in this corner of Washington. We may even hop the border to Oregon to get a different perspective.

Allison was fantastic to work with. We reached out to Allison in hopes she could squeeze us in the following week after our engagement and to our luck she could. She was very communicative, provided professional online location guides, and even links to blogs on how to pick outfits.
During the shoot everything felt natural, so natural that I forgot we were taking photos, I was just enjoying time with my fiance. Allison did give us position guidance as needed and captured incredible shots.
She turned around the photos quickly and I LOVE how they turned out, the lighting, editing, everything was perfect. When I look at the photos I can't help but smile, the photos remind me of our love story and I feel like I’m melting with warmth and joy looking at them. I couldn’t recommend Allison enough, her work was incredible.

Allison was the first professional photographer to ever take photos of me and my husband at our engagement shoot. We had no idea where to even begin with posing, we rarely take photos! Allison brought ideas, and coached us through posing for photos in a way that made us both feel comfortable and authentic, and it shows in the photos! Our session was so much fun, and has helped me feel so comfortable being in front of a camera in general! If this is your first or one hundredth time getting professional photos, choose Allison if you want photos back that feel like you, but the absolute best version of you.

Allison picked a beautiful location and provided a lovely setup that matched our wishes perfectly. Such a fun session, Allison really put us at ease and let us guide the shoot, with some very helpful tips here and there :) The photos turned out beautifully, the communication before and after the shoot was great, and she was incredibly patient with us not-so-outdoorsy folk on a hot day in a field! Overall 10/10 would recommend and would be a return customer!

Allison took our first ever couples photography session and put us both at ease with her easygoing and open personality. I have social anxiety so the idea of having my pictures taken professionally was quite stressful, but I had such a good time!

Allison was super sweet and brought out our smiles really well! We're both pretty awkward, especially in front of cameras, and they were able to prompt us in ways that revealed our genuine smiles! The photos turned out amazing :)
