Meet the heart behind the lens

Hey friend! I’m Ellie—a daughter, sister, wife, mother, Jesus-loving, coffee-drinking, adventure-chasing girl. I was raised in Colorado, but life has allowed me to call many places around the world home. I’m inspired by genuine moments, messy hair, little laughs, big hugs, and the raw beauty of everyday life—and turning these moments into memories you’ll treasure forever.

Photography has always been a part of my life—my mom captured all my big moments growing up, from birthdays and school dances, to senior photos, graduation portraits, and even my maternity photos. I took my first photography class in college, thinking it would be a helpful skill in marketing and business. After marrying the love of my life, moving across the ocean to Hawaii, and welcoming our daughter, I found myself taking more and more photos.  I realized how precious it is to preserve these fleeting moments—and I wanted to be able to bless others with that too.

From family and couple sessions to portraits and milestones, I create relaxed, heartfelt photography that captures love, connection, and the little details that tell your story. It’s about helping you see the extraordinary in your own life and giving you tangible memories to hold onto—a reminder of what truly matters. Based in Carrollton, MO, and San Angelo, TX, I would be honored to help you preserve your story, just as I’ve cherished capturing mine.

Let’s go on an adventure and make magic together!
