about

Hi, I'm elizabeth!

I’m a photographer who specializes in weddings, elopements, and engagements in the Hocking Hills region of Ohio. I use the sandstone cliffs, waterfalls, and Hemlock groves as a backdrop for documenting real connections and sweet moments. If you are planning a wedding, elopement, vow renewal or are interested in scheduling an engagement or portrait session, please get in touch! I’d love to chat with you about your plans.

Elizabeth was spectacular! Our engagement and wedding photos are so beautiful. We had photos taken at our lodge and at Hocking Hills State Park and she knew all the right spots. She was very kind and helpful every step of the way. Every perfect moment was captured and we are so glad we had Elizabeth!
