Work with me
My work is inspired by the moments that deserve to be savored. I want my photos to evoke emotion and help my couples relive life's most cherished moments... sipping coffee cuddled up in a canoe as the sun rises above the horizon,
off-roading through the forest with the windows rolled down, the wind in your hair, the scent of pine trees when hiking, exchanging vows on the cliffside of Lake Superior, exploring a hidden waterfall, dancing under the moon and stars. (I could go on and on...)
This day is yours to fill with what you love most. Throw the wedding "rule" book out the window, friend. It's up to you on how you spend it.

let's kick off your adventure with the elopement of your dreams
CAPTURING EVERY ADVENTURE
Get to know me
I'm a Minnesota, Alaska, and Pacific Northwest elopement photographer. I know it's cliché to say, but I really did grow up with a camera in my hands. Through my work, I combine my love for travel and photography to capture beautiful and intimate elopement moments in breathtaking locations around the world. My mission is to create a magical elopement experience, one that captures the essence of your unique love story through authentic and emotive imagery.
My style is a mix of natural and unscripted moments, resulting in stunning, aesthetic photos that tell a beautiful story. When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me coffee shop hopping, hiking, or camping with my husband Kevin.
I'm most at home in the forest or on the water, rarely seen without a blanket wrapped around me (and a coffee in tow). I am my happiest when I am gathered with my favorite people around a fire pit, and OH! I'm completely obsessed with dogs and love stories (yours especially).

“I’m so glad we chose Payton to be our wedding photographer! She did a wonderful job capturing our day. She was very professional throughout the whole process. Communication was never an issue, she uses her resources when needed but mostly she has a very clear way of showing exactly what she is communicating. Payton is very open and receptive to feedback and input. She has skills of a well seasoned photographer without the extreme price tag. We would hire her again without question!!”
