Life isn’t meant to be lived perfectly… but merely to be LIVED. Boldly, wildly, beautifully, uncertainly, imperfectly, magically LIVED.

Meet Your Destination
Elopement Photographer
Hey there! I'm Luke. If you want epic, ethereal but joyful imagery and an environment where you can be your most radiant selves and truly live, I'd love to be your destination elopement photographer. My work has been featured by Bridal Guide, Junebug Weddings, Equally Wed, Wandering Weddings, and more.
Your core memories are a big deal, and your wedding memories should be nothing short of amazing. It's all about you feeling comfortable and secure, letting your authentic selves shine on your big day. I'm all about keeping it real because being true to ourselves and our deepest desires is key to making the world a kinder, more compassionate place. So, let that light of yours shine – that's when the magic happens! 🕯️
A photographer for us is/was one of the most important vendors on our day so choosing the right one I did not take lightly. I waited months and months writing each one down that I liked and had the same aesthetic that I was looking for. When it came down to the process of elimination, I knew right away Luke was going to be the one. He seriously captured every important moment and then some but not only that but he also proved time and time again why we chose him to be our photographer.

Working with Luke was by far the best decision of my life (beside my husband and kids lol.) When I say Luke is a fairy godmother, I’m not kidding. He answered every email promptly , helped me pick out some looks, and found amazing locations in an area that was important to us. He never made me feel silly for my ideas and let me dream big.
My husband was very concerned about having someone with us on such an intimate day (literally just us and Luke) but when he got the sneak peaks he nearly cried. You can tell he cares about his clients, he nailed it, I was a blubbering mess. It was beautiful.

"Would recommend 100 times over"
Luke went above and beyond what we expected. Driving several hours to our destination, walking through wetlands to get the shots and capturing all the perfect moments. He was easy to work with and down for anything. Would recommend him 100 times over. Thanks Luke!

My husband and I booked Luke for our elopement in Wyoming! Best decision ever! Luke was amazing and scouted out the area for us ahead of time. We are so happy with how our day turned out and the photos as well. It takes a special person to be there for you on one of the most intimate days of your life!
