Swap the structured timeline with the freedom to roam, adventure and love in your own way.
Washington & Oregon elopement photography
The thought of a rigid timeline, loads of guests and lots of things to juggle makes your chest feel tight when all you want to do is celebrate your love with the person that means the most to you. Elopements allow you to plan your day in whatever way you choose, whether on a windswept beach or on top of a mountain, this day should be all about adventure, intention and an experience that you’ll cherish forever.
Your love doesn’t fit the mold so you don’t want your day to either.
We truly cannot stop looking at our pictures. I honestly don’t even know how to describe how happy and emotional they made us feel. From the very beginning, she was so kind, lovely, patient, and genuinely passionate about what she does.
Most of my couples tell me they've never had professional photos taken before, and that’s more than normal and okay. It’s not your job to know what to do; it’s just your job to be present, soak in your day, and show up as yourselves. Leave the rest to me.
Worried about being in front of the camera?
The beautiful thing about elopements is that you can really craft the day to look however you want. Whether that is something slow and natural, or daring and playful, there are so many activities you can include. From a picnic in a wildflower field to hiking, to going to the movies or just running around on the beach.
Want it to feel meaningful but not sure how?
The most difficult thing about elopements is the logistics of permits and making sure all the safety rules are followed. I provide guidance through the whole thing to make sure timelines, safety and permits are all in place to help your day unfold in the meaningful and intentional way you want it too.
Feeling overwhelmed by Permits?
During the process I’ll make sure to get to know you both and help you narrow down what will suit you as a couple, based on personality, safety and active level, I’ll make sure to find something that fits, whether that's a secluded forest, mountain overlook or something in between.
Spinning in a circle about where to elope?
I truly believe that when you’re in a safe space to be yourself, your love grows wild and beautiful. If you feel any of these things, then I'm here to help.

Rosalia & CJ
Maelynn and Kyle were such an incredible duo! The photos they took of us were AMAZING. I am so in awe by how beautiful they turned out. They both were so kind! These pictures will forever be a keepsake in our family, and I am so thankful to have an opportunity to get my photos taken by Maelynn. She is definitely my go to photographer for beautiful, moody, romantic photos. Book her before her slots fill up quick!
Gabriela & Cynthia
I had such a specific vision, something dramatic, romantic, cinematic… almost like a mix of Outlander and Twilight and she did it !!! She captured detail so beautifully and artistically. The photos feel like scenes from a story instead of just pictures. We are still completely in awe. These are the kind of photos I know I’ll treasure for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for giving us memories that feel magical.
Madison
Maelynn was a dream to work with! You can truly tell how passionate she is about her art and she goes above and beyond to ensure that she gets every shot. I appreciate how much she hyped me up during my photoshoot and she truly made me feel so beautiful and badass. Would recommend her for any portrait session or major life event!
the Murphys
I could not recommend Maelynn enough!!!!!!!! Me and my Husband (still wild saying that!!) are NOT photography people, and honestly thought we wouldn’t enjoy the pictures that much. Maelynn is not only just the sweetest and most calming presence on big days she also just takes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. We also (in the best way possible) did not even notice her on the dance floor or at the reception yet still had the most amazing candid photos of us and our family and friends.
Ruby & Jake
Maelynn and her partner Kyle did our elopement and photography and it was absolutely amazing! We had a beautiful little ceremony in the woods, and afterwards she helped us pose for the most ethereal portraits. They made our wedding day so special and we will always have these incredible photos to commemorate it! We truly can’t thank her enough and we highly recommend her!
Yaremi & Kyle
It’s been a few months since she took my photos, and I’m still not over how beautiful they are. She made the process so easy, guiding my husband and me on exactly how to pose and going above and beyond to capture the perfect shot. My photos look like a movie and tell a story, which is exactly what I was looking for. If you’re looking for unique photos, this is your person!
Shivani & Nathan
Maelynn is an exceptional photographer who exceeded our expectations! She took the time to hear our story and made us feel incredibly comfortable, even though we’re camera-shy introverts. Her ability to capture dreamy, cinematic, and candid moments resulted in photos that are even more beautiful than we envisioned. If you’re looking for someone to do justice to your special moments, like our anniversary shoot/elopement, Maelynn is the perfect choice!
Yanett & Monica
My wife and I eloped with 6 people along with Maelynn and her partner, Kyle, who ordained us! It was such a precious ceremony & moment that we will cherish forever! The pictures came out GORGEOUS. We couldn’t be more grateful! The way she captures all the emotions and moments is everything! I can feel all the emotions & overall soul of every photo and that means the world to me. f numbers had to make a decision for you, my experience a 1000/10! If in doubt, please don’t, Maelynn is the best!
Monica & Hayden
I can't recommend Maelynn enough! We are absolutely in awe over our engagement shoot photos, better than anything I could have imagined. She was friendly, fun, and helped us capture posed shots in a more natural and candid way to get beautiful photos. I told her my inspiration and dreams for the shoot and she just made it happen, and so much better than I ever dreamed. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH MAELYNN, you are incredibly talented!!!
