Allison and her husband was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Allison was organized, energetic, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the photography planning process. On the day of our wedding, when the weather unexpectedly changed and threw off our timeline, Allison remained calm and professional, quickly adapting to the new circumstances and finding creative ways to capture beautiful photos around our venue. She was also a rockstar during the family photo portion of the day, efficiently directing everyone to ensure we got all the necessary shots. Allison's hardworking, organized approach and the high-quality, professional results she delivered made her an incredible value. We are thrilled with the photos from our special day and would highly recommend Allison Lauryn Photography to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer.

Imagine Elopements Photography

Imagine a wedding day that feels like stepping into your favorite storyline —intimate, magical, and unapologetically yours. I help craft experiences for couples who value creativity, intentionality, and a touch of wonder. My photography is a blend of both documentary and editorial, combined in such a way that feels authentic and timeless. From windswept vows on a mountaintop to quiet toasts in a mossy forest. Based in Oregon, I specialize in elopements that celebrate your individuality and sentimental parts of your story. Let’s create some truly magical photographs—together.

We initially planned to elope at Crater Lake, which led us to Mia and Imagine Elopements. However, as the date approached, we opted to elope at our beautiful rented property to avoid added stress. Mia was exceptional throughout the planning process. She is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but she is also friendly, attentive, and highly responsive, going above and beyond in her follow-through. Her expertise regarding Crater Lake, including permits, trails, and requirements, was impressive. She even contacted the park on our behalf to ensure everything was in order. Mia also knows the surrounding areas well and recommends trustworthy local vendors and activities geared toward our interests. Mia truly understood our vision for a stress-free, enjoyable day with our kids in a natural setting. Her flexibility (including her willingness to officiate our ceremony as well) allowed us to experience the day our way, resulting in photos that perfectly capture all of the emotions of the day. We adore the photos and relive our special day every time we look at them!

Dani shot our engagement session in Indiana (where we live) and our elopement in Colorado. We vetted SO.MANY photographers and the long search ended up with Elle & Co Photography and we are elated with our choice! Dani's professionalism is top-notch and she's also so fun to be around. She has a talent with her profession but her passion puts her over the edge. Dani's knowledge for locations helped us nail down the perfect elopement spot. She also nailed down our vision for our engagement session location; she is well versed in locations all around and we were thankful for all the help in planning that. The day of our elopement had unpredictable weather and I didn't want to get wet and be rained on. Dani was able to execute a plan for us to elope later in the day without any stress or hassle. She had new timeline and plans over to us immediately so we could have the perfect outside elopement and the day turned out amazing! Jed (her PHENOMENAL second hand man) brought & put up a pop up changing tent for us so I didn't have to hike in my dress the whole time. Our elopement was everything we wanted and more thanks to Dani & Jed & Elle & Co Photographer. Thank you forever!

As a kid it never dawned on me that my obsession with polaroid film, disposable cameras and old family photographs would lead me to being a full time wedding photographer, but here we are and boy do I feel lucky. So who the heck am I? I'm the kid who sat next to you in your high school art class that was WAY too excited for our next project. I'm that friend who loves to laugh till they cry over a silly Parks and Rec meme. I love meeting new people (and will totally hug you the first time I meet you!) and I'll be the old lady who is pretty darn proud of every wrinkle that came her way from smiling way too much.

I’ve worked with Jenny several times in a professional capacity, and she is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s so kind and warm and makes everyone feel welcome. Not to mention, she’s fantastic at what she does. You won’t regret hiring her for any reason.

I've been photographing weddings for 25 yeas in 2024! I love capturing authentic moments in true color. I went to college to learn photography and business. I've always wanted to be a photographer, and my studio specializes in weddings, maternity, newborns, and family photography. I believe in capturing all of the milestone moments for you, from when your family begins to when your kids go to college.

If you want to blissfully enjoy your big day without worrying about moments you might miss - I’m your girl. Capturing the candids and in-betweens, and keeping you on cloud nine, all while bouncing around like a ball of energy!

Destini is such a kind and fun photographer. She treats all her clients like friends and genuinely cares for all of them. Her big heart and spunky personality really makes taking photos with her feel so smooth and easy. She lets everyone around her feel comfortable to be totally and completely themselves. I love that about her.
