Adventure Lover and Memory Documenter

Meet the girl behind the camera

Howdy, 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 building connections with people and spending quality 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.

Get to know me through some random facts:

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’m obsessed with all things American West – ghost towns, mining history, movies, and Red Dead Redemption 2

Meet Newkirk

Hiking buddy, adventure companion, and a Girls best friend

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.

Newkirk is named after the character from the 60’s sitcom Hogan’s Heroes, but I know that reference is lost on my generation. I brought him home in 2020 and he’s been my constant companion ever since!

I love dogs and would love for you to bring your own furry friends to your photo session. Because we all know they’re a big part of the family!

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

A Candid and Fun Photography Experience for your Elopement or Session

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!

Your Personal Guide to 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’m based out of.

Being a local to the West 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!
