Adventure Elopement Photographer & Planner

Meet the girl behind the camera

Hi there, I’m Tiana! An Elopement Photographer Based out of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho

I’m an adventure lover, dog mom, and Christ Follower. I love exploring the American West, but more than anything else, I love spending time with my family and friends.

I’m that girl who spends every weekend out hiking then complains about having no time to relax, who is already planning her next trip while still on the current trip, and is always down for trying something new.

My photography journey began in my early teens but it was in 2018 that I really fell in love with it as an art form. I actually started learning photography because I wanted to get into cinematography. Well, I found that I really enjoy still photos. I love the memories a photo can capture and the creativity of the process.

Some random facts about me:

I’m slightly obsessed with Grizzly Bears (they’re just so dang fluffy!)
A dream of mine is to through-hike the PCT one day
My teens and early 20’s were spent studying Costume Design and I worked on dozens of short films, several theatre productions, and one feature film
I’ll take a camping road trip over a luxury vacation any day

Meet Newkirk

German Shepherd, pro frisbee catcher, hiking buddy

This is Newkirk, my 4 year old German Shepherd. He’s technically all grown up, but I still call him my “puppy baby”. He could chase his frisbee all day long and still have energy, he loves hiking, and he’s never far from my side.

In 2020 I decided to make my dream of owning a dog come true. I had no idea what I was doing when I brought him home, but I eventually learned how to work with his high drive and now he’s my constant companion!

A Candid Elopement Photographer Experience

Don’t worry, having a photographer Follow You Around isn’t as scary as it might sound

Honestly, you will probably forget I’m even there. I have the magical gift of stealth. It used to be the bane of my exitance, but now it’s my superpower because it allows me to let you to live fully in the moment while I capture every last adorable moment candidly.

You’ll have space to be yourselves and for your personalities to shine. I’m all about creating a fun, natural atmosphere and I’ll give you enough instruction so you always know what to do with those darn hands.

I’m a details girl, and after working in film where my job was literally to make sure every hair was in the right place, I do the same thing with each of my couples. I’ll make sure you look amazing in every photo!

An Expert on All Things Adventure

There are few things I’d rather do than spend time outdoors and explore. Whether it’s hiking, backpacking, road tripping, or snowshoeing, I love getting outside all year round.

Before I started documenting love stories, I did a ton of landscape photography. I’m lucky to have called the PNW home my entire life, and I’m so in love with this part of the country! It’s filled with so much beauty and I’m so grateful to have so many opportunities to explore it.

My friends will gladly tell you I’m the person to go to if you need hiking or travel recommendations. I love trip planning and always come prepared for every adventure with the 10 essentials, bear spray, and downloaded maps.

A Washington Native and an Idaho Local

I was born and raised in Western Washington (about 20 miles north of Seattle) and spent the first 21 years of my life calling Washington home. In 2018, I moved to the beautiful North Idaho, which is where I currently reside.

Being a local means I can provide expert guidance throughout the region. Whether you’re looking for the best views or the best place to eat, I can recommend some of the best spots around!

Let’s Work Together!
