Photography that captures real people, wild places, and untold brand stories.
When M+J first reached out to me, they knew they wanted something intimate, adventurous, and completely different from a traditional wedding—but they had no idea where to start. They said, “We just know we want unique, no stress, and something that feels like us.” It seems this is most people's struggle when planning their big day. Does this sound familiar??

From there...
We got to work together, and I became more than just their photographer—I was their guide, sounding board, and timeline wizard. We had planning calls where we narrowed down the perfect location, figured out the permits they’d need, and even talked through backup plans for weather. I sent them a custom location guide with hike options, packing tips, and travel info to make the whole process feel simple and stress-free.
On the day of, I met them at the trailhead just before sunrise with coffee and Polaroids ready to go. We hiked, they exchanged their vows surrounded by morning light and the quaintness of the day, and we captured every beautiful, unscripted moment.
By the time we wrapped up, it felt like we were just friends sharing a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
*Pricing*
I’m a donation based wedding photographer because love and memories shouldn’t be limited by a price tag.
In a money-driven industry, I choose a different path. One rooted in meaning, accessibility, and storytelling. I photograph weddings of all sizes, creating space for every couple’s story to be seen and remembered.

Testimonials
H+M
"Choosing to elope felt overwhelming until we found Taylie. Not only is she an incredible photographer, but she truly became our guide through the entire process. From helping us pick a breathtaking location in the Dolomites to walking us through travel details and timelines, she made everything seamless. On the day itself, we felt completely at ease—like traveling with a friend who just happened to be documenting the most important day of our lives. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a more talented, caring person by our side."
