Hey, I'm Jenn—an elopement photographer based in Bellingham, Washington & traveling all over the world to document beautiful ceremonies. Wherever you want to say, "I do," I'll meet you there.

My passion is planning environmentally sustainable alternative weddings outdoors with couples who love these wild places as much as I do. Whether you're hoping to elope somewhere you know & love, or you'd like to turn this celebration into an adventure in a totally new space – I am here for it!

I love getting out in nature & crafting authentic wedding celebrations that are 100% true to you – with all the love & attention to detail you deserve. I believe a wedding or elopement should be representative of your dreams & goals, not an exception to them. That's why I work so hard to encourage sustainability & bold authenticity. You deserve a day made entirely of what you do want, with nothing you don't.

As a wedding vendor I pride myself in my ability to make photography a fun, positive experience! Personally, I'm a sucker for animals in need & mom to three dogs, two cats & usually have a house full of foster puppies. I've spent my life traveling—so whether you want to get married by an alpine lake in the North Cascades, amongst the sand dunes of the Southwest, or on a jagged ridgeline in the Rocky Mountains—I'd love to help you get there!

To get started, all you've got to do is reach out via our contact form! Also, here's an elopement planning guide to get you started on the right track. I can't wait to meet you!

    Working with Wild Coast Photography was one of my favorite parts of my wedding. Jenn was extremely professional and responsive from the moment we spoke. It was clear from that first conversation that we could work together to create a wedding that fulfilled our needs, not just the expectations of others. She found the perfect location for us, and helped us create a schedule for the day that included both time with family and time alone. My husband and I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout, even though we are not people who like to be in front of the camera; they felt like friends who were guiding us through this milestone. We received our preview gallery within a few days and all our photos within the month. The photos exceeded my expectations in so many ways: they were natural, captured our raw happiness, and told the story of the whole day. Start to finish, I couldn't recommend the experience more highly.

    It was such a pleasure working with Jenn! Not only did she capture absolutely stunning photos of our elopement but she was so easygoing and fun to work with. Jenn has a true gift for making her clients feel calm and comfortable during the shoot, which helps make the photos look natural and candid. She is also incredibly patient, kind and collaborative and genuinely works hard to bring her client's vision to life. We are thrilled with our elopement photos and hope to work with her and Wild Coast Photography again in the future.

    Jenn and Dillen are incredible photographers! Not only are they extremely talented at getting the perfect shot they know how to make the shoot comfortable and fun:) I hate having my pictures taken but they were able to get me to relax during my engagement shoot and captured gorgeous pictures that I will cherish forever! Can’t recommend them enough!

    Jenn was so wonderful to work with. She was flexible and allowed us to try out our own ideas in addition to all of the amazing suggestions she had. We felt very comfortable having her take our engagement photos. The end results were high quality photographs that we were excited to share with everyone. Would highly recommend Wild Coast Photography to anyone!

    Jenn and Dillen are gems and go above and beyond in their photography- not only capturing amazing photos but giving an experience that makes you feel comfortable and seen. My partner and I normally hate being in front of the camera.. but were instantly comfortable during our photo session, and had all the room in the world to be ourselves. We felt comfortable and supported on our adventures because of their experience and knowledge of the landscape and the outdoors. Not to mention, the photos we received were gorgeous and captured us 100% authentically. I would definitely recommend Jenn + Dillen (and of course, their pup Samson) -- it was more than a pleasure to work with them!

    If I could add more stars to the review I absolutely would! Jenn and her husband were the absolute best to work with. Jenn was on point from the day I reached out, straight through the weeks following our elopement in White Sands. The energy these two brought to our elopement day was nothing but comfortable and fun. Our experience was beyond memorable and the photographs were straight magic! I cannot recommend Wild Coast Photography enough for any adventure you can dream up. I still can not thank them enough for such a wonderful experience.

    We are so lucky to have worked with Jenn for our elopement. With less than two months between first contact and the wedding day, Jenn's organizational skills, advice, and support was invaluable. She helped us choose a beautiful location and design a perfect schedule for the day. As we got close to the date and weather threatened our plans, Jenn kept us calm and brainstormed a backup plan that was even more perfect than our initial design. Jenn is a total professional - arriving on time, giving guidance and encouragement when we needed it, then disappearing into the background allowing for perfectly intimate moments. It was an absolute joy to spend the day with her - she made it feel entirely about us and the photos she captured are stunning. They tell a complete, genuine story of the day. We love sharing them with our family and the print vendors Jenn suggested are the icing on top of the cake. Wild Coast Photography gets our highest recommendation - we hope we can work with Jenn again!
