Hey there, I’m Alexandria, and I’m a Washington elopement and intimate wedding photographer based near Seattle and serving Washington State!
Hug that tree.
Chase the sunset.
Splash in the waves on the coast.
Get emotional when Mt Rainier peaks behind a cloud.
Connect to nature and embrace your wild side on your elopement day.
Elopements are couple-focused experiences that give you the opportunity to celebrate your partnership, in ways that big weddings lose.
And if you decide to embrace your connection to the outdoors on your elopement day? Damn, that’s going to be one hell of a day.
By refocusing on yourselves your day is wide open to do literally whatever you want to do and maybe create an amazing adventure out of it! Here are some ways to embrace your nature connections on your wedding day.
Maybe you rent a sailboat and get married in the Puget Sound (and maybe see some orcas!)
Or you might rent a private space in wine country and have an intimate dinner with close friends under the cotton candy skies!
Or maybe you want to hike at Mount Rainier/Tahoma and say your vows with a majestic volcano behind you!
But how do you even begin to start dreaming and planning?
You hire a photographer who has got your back along the way! You’ll get all this and more when you work with me!

**Due to Leave No Trace, I only photograph elopements under 10 people in nature as most natural settings are not conducive to larger groups. I will photograph micro weddings up to 50 at a venue or a hybrid of the elopement/microwedding.
And you’ll get a storytelling experience to capture your day.
Photos are tangible things that help us remember moments but also remind us of how we felt, not just what we looked like.
Pull out your phone and look at a random image. How did it make you feel? What else did it make you remember?
Who are you Alexandria?
I’m a giddy Wisconsinite through and through. I’ve been through some rough times and have come to realize we have one life to live so making moments and experiences is so important to me. I love cheese curds, puppies, running through the ocean and exploring new places. I frequently crank my music and have dance parties in my living room. I’m fascinated and humbled by nature and will probably hug a tree. I also tend to say “hey girl, love you” whenever Mount Rainier/Tahoma is out. If you hike with me you’ll hear “OMG WOW” literally every few feet and I really hope you join me in my excitement!! If I had a superpower I’d wish to be able to communicate with anyone in any language as I believe we have so much to learn from each other! I believe everyone deserves the right to get married, no matter who they are or what they look like. AND the outdoors is for everyone.
So how does this work?
We hop on a video call to get to know each other as I believe its so important you jive with your photographer on your elopement day! We’ll talk about your vision, location and then discuss the best package for you. From there you can book with a date, signed contract, & 50% down (50% down breaks down into a non-refundable booking retainer + planning fee so I can help you right off the bat)
Amazing, what are your prices?

Why should we consider getting ready photos?
Getting ready photos allows you time to warm up to me before the ceremony and couples portraits. Its not natural to have a camera in someone’s space so this way I blend into the background when it comes time to photograph later! Additionally, because elopements are more of an intentional celebration focused back on you, you’re choosing elements to your day that mean something to the two of you like a fun vacation rental or inviting your best friend to help you get ready, or maybe you want to enjoy coffee and music while writing your vows before you get dressed. It’s more time to sit, reflect, and have documented fun on your elopement day!
I can’t wait to work with you and share your story! All love welcome <3
Happy Trails!
Alexandria
