what we do
Modern, film-inspired wedding photography designed to be experienced fully.
There’s a difference between a wedding that’s documented…and one that’s truly experienced.
The most beautiful celebrations aren’t rushed. They aren’t squeezed into a set number of hours or built around when coverage ends. They unfold naturally at their own pace with space to breathe, connect, and be fully present.
That’s why I exclusively offer full day coverage.
Why Full Day Coverage Matters
When you book your photographer, your timeline likely doesn’t exist yet. And even when it does, wedding days have a rhythm of their own.
Moments run long. Champagne is poured. Someone you love pulls you aside. And suddenly, the best parts of the day are happening in between what was planned.
With full day coverage, there’s no pressure to fit your story into a set number of hours. No watching the clock. No wondering if there’s “enough time.”
Just a day that’s allowed to unfold exactly as it should.
The DETAILS
A Different Kind of Experience
When I’m not rushed, you’re not rushed.
You can take your time getting ready.
You can linger at cocktail hour.
You can step away for a quiet moment together without feeling like you’re “losing coverage.”
I’m there to guide when needed, collaborate with your planner, and ensure everything flows seamlessly—while also giving you the freedom to simply be in it.
Because the way your wedding feels matters just as much as how it looks.
A relaxed, spacious getting-ready experience
Vogue-worthy portraits and candids that feel like you at your most relaxed and joyful
Coverage of the in-between moments most people miss
Flexibility when the timeline naturally shifts
What Full Day Coverage Allows For:
A calm, grounded presence throughout the entire day
The ability to fully immerse yourself in your celebration
Designed for Thoughtfully Planned Celebrations.
If you’re investing in a wedding that’s intentional, beautifully designed, and deeply personal, your photography experience should reflect that same level of care.
Full day coverage ensures that nothing is rushed, overlooked, or cut short so your images feel as complete and considered as the day itself. You're selecting your vendors and details carefully and they deserved to be captured intentionally.
The Result
A collection of images that reflects not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt to live it. From the slower moments in the morning to the energy of the evening, each part of the day is captured with intention.
And an experience for you and your guests that flows instead of rushes.
KIND WORDS
"Elyse was by far our favorite vendor.”
“We can't thank Elyse enough for our beautiful, timeless photos. Literally the best decision we made."
Elyse is professional, yet so personable. It was truly like working with a friend. Everyone loved having her share the day with us. If you're looking to capture the intimate, candid, and heartfelt moments of your wedding, look no further. She is a true artist!
- Lisa + Jason, Joshua Tree, CA
Her professionalism, poise, and style were off the charts and exactly what we wanted with a photographer. Her style was definitely the biggest factor in us choosing her over anyone else.
We are so in love with our photos. They came out exactly how we wanted and she captured the day perfectly. Every detail shot was incredible, and the portraits are gorgeous. Looking through the photos makes us feel like we are reliving the day all over again!
- Ellis + Elliot, San Clemente, CA
"The way we felt on our wedding day was reflected in her photos - ultimate happiness + excitement."
Her photography is unique, creative, and editorial. I was so turned off by the cheesy wedding photos I came across. Her photos had a story behind them. She has a creative eye to make even the ordinary look extraordinary. We have received so many compliments on our wedding photos! Her photography speaks for itself, but she is also so much fun to work with!

Frequently asked questions
Q. DO YOU TRAVEL?
Yes. While we're based in Southern California, we're available for destination weddings and travel widely. Travel fees apply and vary based on location. Reach out and we'll put together the details for your specific date and venue.
Q. HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?
Most of our couples book 12 to 18 months out, and popular dates fill quickly. If you have a venue and a date, we'd recommend reaching out sooner rather than later to check availability.
Q. HOW DO YOU WORK WITH OUR PLANNER?
Seamlessly, and intentionally. We reach out to your planner early in the process to align on the timeline, understand the flow of the day, and make sure our photo needs are fully integrated into the overall plan. By the time your wedding arrives, your planner and we are already on the same page.
Q. Is the second photographer always included?
Yes, always. Our collection includes a second photographer. It's not an add-on or an upgrade. We believe two perspectives are essential to documenting a day like yours completely, so we've built it in from the start.
