hello!! i'm bri



your mountain elopement photographer

I'm a scenic & documentary styled photographer based in Utah, but willing to travel anywhere for a good mountain view!

I spent the first 5 years of my photography career photographing large weddings all over the country while being a full time college student. I had so many good experiences, met amazing people, and learned so much that I still use in every project I photograph. But I found myself becoming burnt out.

 I started looking for ways to promote more peace and connection into my life. This looked like simplifying my lifestyle, grounding myself in Utah, and playing in the mountains with my dog, Luna!

How i got here

the real magic comes when you work with nature

rather than against it

And this translated over to my work. I started meeting couples who found themselves stressed and anxious at the thought of planning a big wedding, and looking for something more simple and aligned with them.

So I took what I learned in my personal life and began helping couples implement intentionality and connection into their wedding days.

Why mountain elopements?

I love showing people that getting married doesn't have to be a big, stressful event.

Instead, it can be one that is fun,
laid-back, and an opportunity to
connect with those you love

Absolutely! There are no rules here.
Eloping just means doing whatever you want.  

You can plan a meaningful elopement day with just the two of you, your dogs, or a group of your closest loved ones. 



Can I still invite my closest family and friends if I elope?

*Most elopements have 5-25 guests. It can be difficult to find a space in the mountains for a group larger than that unless you rent a venue

We will have multiple opportunities to get to know each other through calls and questionnaires before you are in front of my camera so I can tailor the shooting experience to you.

- Kinley & Cameron

She was the easiest, most supportive, and talented person I could have asked for. I explained my vision to her and was amazed when I got the photos back. They were better than I ever imagined. She captured the raw beauty of every moment and made sure I got every shot I wanted.

I could talk for days about her demeanor and how easy going she is, as well as talented she is! You won’t regret working with Bri! 

bri was everything i was looking for in a photographer.

-Portia & Trevor

Bri is absolutely incredible and I highly recommend using her to capture your special day!

She photographed our elopement in Yosemite and was a very crucial resource in our planning process as she is very knowledgeable and organized for weddings/elopements in national parks. And… of course our pictures turned out to be gorgeous.

I can’t recommend Bri enough!! She captured our elopement in Zion and was an absolute dream to work with! We really put our trust in her since we traveled to Utah to get married, and she exceeded all of our expectations! She even found a secluded ceremony location for us away from the spring break crowds. Our photos turned out beautifully, and she was able to capture our personalities and love for each other.

I’m going to treasure our wedding photos forever..

-Gracie & Diego

Bri is very welcoming and an amazing photographer! She was very personable which made the environment fun and easy to get comfortable in front of the camera. She really captured the candid moments and how silly our relationship is!

I highly recommend her for anyone looking to get spectacular pictures done. 

She really brings your love to life in her pictures

-Sierra & Caden

Bri is truly amazing! Every picture we got back was stunning! Sneak peeks came back so fast and I couldn’t wait to post!

She made our day so stress free and easy! Bri made us a schedule of the day to give to family and made our crazy elopement the most amazing experience!
She is the BEST!

I love to travel, especially if there’s mountains involved. Click the pins to explore a few notable locations in my world!


lets get adventurous

Alaska

My favorite place I have photographed an elopement... I will never turn down going back!

the pnw

A place I travel frequently for weddings and elopements. From parks like Yosemite and Mount Rainier, to the redwoods and moody coastal cliffs. If I ever move out of Utah it will be somewhere in this area!

peru

Next up on my travel list! I have had my sights on Peru for over 5 years and am dying to visit Macchu Picchu!

italy

My favorite place in the world so far! I love the variety of locations Italy has to offer.. not to mention their mountains are STUNNING

norway

A place I would die to shoot an elopement! Imagine fjords, glaciers, and the northern lights.

japan

A highly sought after location on my personal travel list for the food and culture. Plus I would love to snowboard in Hokkaido!

I love to have fun and adventure, but also slow down and enjoy the simple things in life. The sweet spot lies within the balance of the two.

After I moved away from home and got into my adulthood I came to really enjoy trying new things and seeing new places. This has turned into a love for traveling because it gives me the ability to have so many different experiences, which keeps me open-minded and flexible. 

i'm always on the lookout to try something new

I can get on board with just about any outdoor activity but the mountains and snow are my favorite. I feel most alive when I am sitting atop a mountain, walking through the forest, climbing a glacier, or simply playing in snow. And don't even get me started about the excitement I feel waking up to rain or snowflakes falling
