In the wild, grounding beauty of Alaska, I offer portrait sessions that are more than posed photos—they are a full-hearted experience. Whether you're celebrating an engagement, planning a surprise proposal, or chasing joy with your little ones, these sessions are built around presence, patience, and genuine connection.
I’ll walk with you every step—from planning what to wear to finding the perfect mountainside, forest path, or shoreline. With gentle guidance and full support, we’ll create space for laughter, stillness, and all the unscripted magic that unfolds when you're simply being yourself, surrounded by nature.
Come as you are—messy hair, full hearts, quiet nerves and all. This one-hour session is for couples, families, or individuals who want to feel fully present and seen, just as they are. Whether you're chasing little feet, sharing a quiet moment before a proposal, or simply being together outdoors, we'll slow down and let the story unfold naturally.

"We hired Emily in 2021 to shoot our engagement and again in 2022 to shoot our wedding, and I don’t think we’ll be hiring anyone else. To say she goes above and beyond is truly an understatement! We’ve never had an awkward moment during our sessions with her and the photos are always GORGEOUS! We’d give more than 5 stars if we could"
