An experiential approach to wedding & portrait photography.


The most powerful photographs aren't taken: they're lived. From the beginning of our time together, I will work hand-in-hand with you to create an experience so intentional that the camera fades away. Every session is built around one quiet goal to deliver beautiful images with the freedom to exist without performance. So that years from now, you're not looking at a pose, but rather, you're looking at a portrait of who you actually were.

DOCUMENTARY. NOSTALGIC. PERSONAL.

MEET ELLIE


Some kids grew up wanting to be astronauts or professional athletes. I grew up sitting on the floor of my childhood home, pulling out photo albums, trying to feel like I was there for moments I had never lived. I dreamt about all of the different things I would do with my life and all of the different people I would meet. That is where my passion for preserving memories started, and it is why I show up to every wedding the way I do.


I am a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Pennsylvania, currently finishing my Master's at Notre Dame and heading to Wisconsin this fall. Four years in, and I still believe the same thing I believed when I started: the most important photos are the ones that make you feel something long after the moment has passed.


If that is what you are looking for, I think we are going to work really well together.
