Hi, I’m Elisha

I’m a Salt Lake City, Utah based photographer specializing in couples and weddings.

Couples often describe me as someone they can trust to help them feel comfortable and at ease through their wedding experience. They often call me their life-long photographer and I’m fortunate to create many friendships with those I get to photograph.

I started photography in High School, went full-time photographing weddings in college, and am still loving what I do thirteen years later. Being welcomed into your lives is one of the greatest privileges that I don’t take for granted.

When I’m not photographing I love cooking with my family, caring for my garden, making espresso, and enjoying time with my family. I’m married to my husband, Todd and we have a cute mini Aussie, Canyon.

WHAT COUPLES ARE SAYING

“Elisha values people over business, is extremely competent at her craft, trustworthy, and reliable. She makes you feel right at home. These photographs are artifacts that help us remember not just our “I Do’s” but also the people who helped us arrive here.”

“Elisha is absolutely phenomenal. She brings energy, excitement, and positivity, helping to set the tone for an awesome day. Elisha even went ski touring with us to take some wedding photos backcountry skiing, which made the weekend extra special. She is a genuinely kind person who brings out the best in those around her, and is excellent at not only capturing beautiful photos, but also the story behind the pictures.”

“The wedding photos are stunning. She captured every important moment beautifully, and we feel like we can relive the day through the pictures from start to finish. We love how she artistically captured the natural beauty of the location as well as all of the emotional human moments. Secondly, Elisha is a joy to work with. During the wedding planning process, she was organized and responsive in collaborating with us to understand our vision and priorities. On our wedding day, she was a calming and joyful presence through buckets of rain (the rain photos came out amazing!), able to art direct without being pushy, and went above and beyond her job of photographer. Elisha is talented, kind, and definitely the kind of person you want to have around on one of the biggest days of your life.”

“Elisha is an enigma of talent. She exceeded every expectation we had for our wedding. Somehow, she was able to document everything that made our day special without ever interrupting a candid moment. She captured so many details of our flowers, food, and decorations and caught engagements between our friends and family that we weren’t able to witness first-hand but loved all the same. Our whole day felt natural and beautiful and personal and the photos immortalize that feeling. Elisha is one of the most thoughtful people I have met during this process and her work is so beautiful and timeless. I can’t imagine anyone doing a better job.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Contact me if your question isn’t covered below! I recognize that for many this is your first wedding experience and I am here to help.

Contact me with a bit of information about your plans. At this point it’s important that we connect via phone/video call or in person before officially booking. I want to make sure we’re vibe so you’re guaranteed the best experience. When you’re ready to book, a signed contract and 20% retainer payment will officially schedule you in my calendar.

I am primarily a digital photographer who photographs film cameras in addition to my digital cameras for fun. My kit includes an original format Polaroid, 35mm Nikon, and square medium format Holga. I find film to be a fun, playful, nostalgic vibe and love the experience of sharing this with couples. I do not primarily shoot film and have options for film focused second photographers if you’re looking for a more dedicated film package.

I’m a solo photographer who utilizes the help of my trusted photographer friends when an event does call for an additional photographer. I do feel comfortable photographing 10+ hour days solo and feel strongly that we should talk about your schedule and photo priorities before incorporating a larger photo/video production team. I also have highly trusted videographer referrals.

Wedding previews are often ready within the following week and final galleries may take about 8 weeks depending on the time of season. I custom edit every wedding according to its unique light, colors, skin tones, and circumstances and do not outsource to third party editors or AI services. Portrait sessions take 2-4 weeks depending on the season.
