Imagine waking up in your Airbnb in your dream location when it hits you – this is the day we're really doing it. Wind in your hair. Hands trembling as you say your vows. A tear slipping down your partner’s cheek. A sacred pause where everything feels like a dream you never want to wake up from.
But that magic can get lost — buried under pressure to perform or plan a day that doesn’t feel like you.
This isn’t about tradition. It’s about a soul-stirring experience — art in motion, made to be felt for the rest of your life.
Because your love doesn’t fit a mold — and your day shouldn’t, either.
My husband and I hired Luke for our intimate wedding in Joshua Tree National Park from sunrise to sunset and it instantly felt like we’d known each other for years. He made us comfortable and it felt like we had an old friend shooting our wedding. The photos are stunning and perfectly captured our personalities and our wedding day. He also had knowledge of the park and area so that we could trust him to location scout and not have to worry about it. In addition he is so creative and captured some amazing pool and lantern photos, coming up with ideas on the spot in different locations that ended up turning out great. I want to relive the day and I’d hire him again in a heartbeat.

Everything went so perfectly. Luke made it so easy and effortless and fun. You can just tell he loves his job and that makes it so easy to work with him. He hyped us up which helped make some amazing artwork and because of that we have so many STUNNING memories captured. Our house is going to become a shrine of all our adventures because we can’t pick our favorites 😂 We are so blessed to have worked with THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER and hope that our paths will cross again in the future 🖤

The thing I loved most and that everyone can just see is that he really was able to capture the love between my husband and I, in such a lovely way, I just really feel like it captured OUR love and that it wasn't staged, forced or posed. It was just us, dorkiness and all, and he captured that pure happiness and uniqueness. His eye is amazing and he just really made the day magical and fun.

Hey, I’m Luke — a traveling elopement and wedding photographer with a lifelong love of ghost stories, folklore, sweeping imagery, and honest connection.
I do this because your love deserves to be felt — not just seen. The goosebumps, the belly laughs, the holy-sh*t-we’re-really-doing-this moments — that’s the magic I’m here for.
Wherever we go — whether it’s Minnesota's North Shore, the West Coast, or some little town in Europe — this is about more than a beautiful backdrop. It’s about how you felt in that moment.
I’m here to catch the awe, the joy, and the quiet in-between glances so you can feel it all over again. Because your love deserves to be felt, seen, and celebrated — exactly as you are.

I focus on truth over trends — guiding when it helps, stepping back when it matters. Every image is rooted in honesty and shaped with care — cinematic, natural, and deeply personal.
You don’t have to hike hours up a mountain at sunrise. From timelines to inspiring but accessible locations, I’ll walk you through just what you need — and none of what you don’t.
As a neurodivergent, LGBTQ+ creative, I get how important it is to feel seen. Whether you're shy, playful, spicy, or sentimental — no matter who you are or who you love – you're welcome here.
Not just a day, but a deeply felt experience. The kind of celebration that feels like you: honest, electric, a little wild, and full of heart.
A love story unfolding in real time – echoed in light and shadow, crafted with care, and made to be remembered.
This is the art I want to make with you. Are you in?
