Hi, I’m McKayla! I’m an adventure wedding and elopement photographer based in Orange County, California but I’m always looking ahead to the next big adventure. When I’m not working, I’m hanging out with my two rescue dogs, baking, rollerskating, eating Mexican food, or listening to true crime podcasts (but let’s be honest, I’ll be listening to those the whole time I’m editing your photos).

Chances are, if you’re here, I don’t need to tell you what elopements are. You know that there are options if you don’t want a big traditional wedding. I’m not just here to take photos and leave. I’ll be here for you every step of the way, whether you need help choosing a vendor, don’t know what to pack for your elopement, or just want feedback on your outfit for the big day. Hell, you can even send me photos of your dog (seriously, please do this).

At the end of the day, your elopement is all about you and your person. It’s not about an all-day photo shoot, or living up to someone else’s expectations of your wedding day. I want you to have an experience that makes you say “holy shit, I’m so glad we did that.” So go ahead, take that hike, make the climb, take the road less traveled, and get a little dirty along the way. You won’t regret it. And I hope you’ll bring me along for the ride.
