Your elopement DAY isn’t just about how it looks—it’s about how it feels.

My approach is centered on documenting the authentic, heartfelt moments that matter most, so you can stay fully present in your experience.

 I believe elopements should be intentional, stress-free, and wildly beautiful—whether that means hiking through Moab’s red rock canyons, saying your vows with the Oregon Coast waves crashing behind you, or getting lost in the misty magic of Olympic National Park. My approach is all about capturing real, unfiltered moments while making sure your day feels effortless, meaningful, and true to you.

Hey, I’m Macayla—your go-to elopement photographer and planner, here to help craft and document your one-of-a-kind adventure.

Lauren & camden

Macayla let us be in the moment and at times we forgot we were getting pictures taken.  Macayla is very professional but at the same time it felt like hanging out with some friends just out doing our thing

"we had full faith in Macayla"

Misty & sean

 Macayla’s work is everything. The photos are the most amazing pictures I have ever seen. The way she captured our true happiness and personalities was done spectacularly"

"I almost cried

ploy & Brigham

When Macayla sent us the sneak peek, because the photos look very stunning! and when we received all of the photos, there was no words that can fully explain how much we love the photos! They look so beautiful and amazing! My partner kept telling me all day long how much he loves the photos.

"our jaws dropped 

Rachel & Dalyn

"I loved how Macayla




We would be laughing and doing dumb stuff together. I really appreciated how quick the photos came in, and how good the communication was with keeping us updated on them. It was so fun to work with Macayla"
