Get a glimpse of what your wedding day could look like.

Your ideal adventure depends on you. When choosing a location, you can stay as local as your backyard and as far as another continent. You can choose a full-day hiking adventure or you can explore an accessible location and also get those incredible views. Whatever direction you choose, I’ll give you recommendations on how to plan your trip and assist with permitting and permission.

  • Take a sunrise hot air balloon ride in Turkey and saying your vows in the air
  • Hike to a waterfall in Oregon to say your vows and take pictures, then have a celebration at home with family
  • Land on a glacier in Alaska on a helicopter to say your vows
  • Take a road trip to the North Cascades in Washington and backpack to a viewpoint for sunrise
  • Have your wedding ceremony at an Alpine lake in the Dolomites and explore in a canoe after sunrise

Meet your photographer & adventure buddy!

This isn’t an exaggeration – I spend all of my free time hiking around the PNW and backpacking internationally. I’ve spent time living in my car to hike around national parks in the US, and spent 8 months backpacking around the world! This is my job but it’s also my greatest passion and I want to share that passion with you.

With my experience, you can trust that I got you.

10 years of experience as a photographer
24 countries & 23 US National Parks traveled
I love, love and want to capture you authentically
I’ll go the extra mile for you! (literally)

What clients are saying

Bethany is an AMAZING photographer. I was lucky enough to have Bethany as both my engagement and wedding photographer. We couldn’t be happier with her and how the photos came out. We have so many beautiful images that captured our day(s). She really helps you feel comfortable in front of the camera and tells you exactly how to pose which was very helpful! Her turn around time with the online album was extremely timely, much quicker than I anticipated! In total, I can’t recommend Bethany enough for any of your photography needs! Thank you so much, Bethany!
