Hi, I'm Elise!

Let’s get to know each other!

I am a wedding and portrait photographer in Utah County, and I’m open to travel. With a BFA in Photography from Utah Valley University and over six years of experience, I capture genuine emotions and authentic moments in weddings, engagements, and portrait sessions inspired by Utah’s landscapes. I love working in natural spaces, using Utah’s mountains, deserts, and light to create photos that feel grounded, connected, and true to you.

Look at my work

More Than a Photographer


I'm not just here to take photos- I'm here to guide you, hype you up, and make sure you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. From fixing dress straps to calming nerves, I'm right there with you every step of the day.

Documenting the In-Between


The quiet glances, happy tears, and moments you didn't even realize were happening- that's what I live for! I shoot with intention, emotion, and a documentary approach so your photos feel honest, timeless, and deeply you.

Your Day, As It Felt


Weddings move fast, but your photos shouldn't feel rushed. My goal is to preserve the energy, connection, and atmosphere of your day so you can relive it exactly as it unfolded- again and again!

A little about me

Fact 01

I’m Elise

I was born in Provo, Utah. I have lived in Texas, Arizona, Nevada, and of course, Utah. Out of all of these states, Utah has always been special to me. The beautiful mountains, the changing seasons, and sunsets/sunrises are unlike anywhere in the world!

Fact 02

Relationship with nature

I love nature and adventure. My youth was spent hiking, camping, and going on road trips, it’s how I think we can reconnect our souls with the nature around us.

Fact 03

Photography

If nature is my first true love, photography became my second one. It started when I got my first DSLR when I was 11 years old. I never wanted to put down my camera since.

Fact 04

Conservation

Not only am I a photographer, but I have a commitment to environmental conservation! I see my photography as a visual narrative to raise awareness on environmental issues here in Utah.
