Hi, I’m Emilee

Upper Peninsula Portrait Photographer

I’m currently located in  Marquette, Michigan, with my partner and two pups, where life feels wilder and freer. I’ve spent the last seven years not just taking photos but being part of the moments that make life unforgettable. There’s nothing I love more than standing beside my clients, whether we’re braving the wind, dancing under the moon, or feeling the icy sting of winter air, knowing we’re creating something raw and real together. The water and the moon have my heart; they remind me that life, like love, is about movement and connection.

Welcome!

It’s exchanging vows surrounded by towering pines, standing hand in hand at the edge of a cliff, or letting the wind carry your laughter across a sunlit meadow. It’s about choosing a space that reflects your love, wild, free, and untamed by tradition. In nature, there’s no pressure to fit into a mold or please a crowd. The only focus is on the two of you, your connection, and the beautiful commitment you’re making.

It’s about making memories that match the vastness of the sky and the depth of your devotion. Whether you’re hiking to a secluded peak, saying “I do” barefoot in the sand, or dancing under the stars, your wedding becomes more than an event; it’s an experience. It’s not about perfection; it’s about presence. The little imperfections, like the wind in your hair or the dirt on your boots, only add to the story you’ll tell for years to come. This is love, raw and real, celebrated in its purest form.

“Eloping or having a wedding in the outdoors is about stepping away from the expected and embracing a celebration that feels truly authentic to you and your partner.”

REDEFINING YOUR LOVE STORY

“This is your day, your love story, and your adventure.”
