About
Hi there! Photography, to me, is something that shouldn't be forced, so I pride myself on capturing true personalities, love and emotion of events and between people. I don't like over-posed shots and aspire to capture the in-between moments and strive to provide images that can always bring you back to that time. I love capturing photos that my customers can enjoy for years to come.

Elyse was so amazing as our wedding photographer! She was polite and professional, and genuinely so pleasant to be around! Multiple people commented “wow, she was really everywhere!” she was buzzing around the whole venue grabbing great shots of friends, family, and decor, while of course capturing amazing shots of the big moments like the first look and our very busy toddlers. She is great and I highly recommend her! I also really appreciated her communication beforehand, and she sent a really thoughtful and helpful questionnaire about two weeks before asking pointed questions that helped me envision the day and quantify some of the things that were really important to me and my husband to have captured. Don’t hesitant, if you’re thinking she’s a good match for your wedding style book her, you’ll be so happy you did!! - Lindsay and Corey

Elyse was beyond amazing to work with! From Our first conversation I felt like I was speaking with an old friend! She is warm, friendly and kind! All while being extremely professional and organized! I have a large family and she was able to get all the shots we wanted in a short amount of time due to how organized and prepared she was. I wish I could give her 100 stars!! I can’t thank you enough, Elyse!!!
