Ellen had gone above and beyond our expectations as our elopement photographer. She’s a rare talent who brought my visions to life. The photos perfectly represent our personalities, while also capturing the beauty of the Kodiak landscape. We’re beyond grateful for these memories of our special day that we will cherish forever.


We could not be happier with the result and have received so many compliments on our photos. Would not hesitate to recommend!
