TRAVELING D.C.
MICRO-WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY FOR
THE ELEGANT & PREPPY LOVERS
You were never meant for a one-size-fits-all wedding.
Intimate. Intentional. Unforgettable.
You crave something more. The sound of waves crashing in the distance or the hum of the city as your backdrop. Whether you’re saying “I do” along the rocky coastline at golden hour or exchanging vows on a rooftop with skyline views, your day should feel like an elevated extension of your love.
Let’s capture a wedding experience that captures your vision. Soft ocean breezes, historic architecture, timeless fashion, and all the little moments in between.. Because your love deserves a setting as breathtaking as the story behind it.
Let’s capture your story
The Wedding Blur
[the traditional wedding industry wasn’t built for couples like you]
The pressure of rigid timelines, overwhelming vendor lists, endless traditions you don’t even care about... it’s exhausting.
And somewhere along the way, the day you were dreaming of one rich with beauty and meaning gets lost in the noise.
I’m ready to celebrate our love in a way that’s uniquely us.

Hey, I’m Alishia! Your travel loving photographer, for your heartfelt, elevated micro weddings and elopements. I capture couples beautifully intimate celebrations in iconic places. Think Charleston charm, D.C. elegance, and coastal California glow. If you’re dreaming of a wedding that’s romantic, intentional, and completely your own, you’re in the right place.
Hey, I’m Alishia, your photographer and behind-the-scenes dream weaver.
Four years ago, I was exactly where you are: planning my wedding, excited but overwhelmed, struggling to turn my vision into reality. I know firsthand the decision fatigue and pressure to "get it right."
And I believe every couple deserves to feel celebrated, supported, and seen.
If you’re stuck finding the perfect location, dreaming up once-in-a-lifetime activities, hand-picking vendors, or crafting a timeline that feels natural and free. I’m here to guide you through it all.
I’m ready to see our love captured authentically
