Why I Became A Photographer in California
I have been a Photographer for over a decade, but it was 4 years ago when I photographed my first adventure elopement in Northern California. It was a Big Sur Elopement and I was so thrilled that I would finally be able to document not only an elopement but a coastal elopement. Soon after that, I traveled to Iceland to document a few other Adventure elopements. Iceland Elopements are where it turned around for me as it was in that moment that I knew this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Since then I have built a name for myself when it comes to eloping in Iceland as an Iceland elopement photographer and videographer. I have also been fortunate to travel to other countries like Scotland, Ireland, New Zealand, the Faroe Islands, Morocco, and Mexico to document elopements. Still, places like Utah, Arizona, Oregon, and Washington are some of the most beautiful locations to elope in and places that I would love to keep photographing couples at.
