I've always been interested in photography, and after many years working as a model on the other side of the camera, I confidently took the leap. My experience behind the camera definitely taught me so much about lighting, angles, posing, and so much more.

I am so glad that I shot with Elisabeth! She brings a tenderness to the shoot which helps one feel safe and her eye for beauty is outstanding. We had a lot of fun on the shoot, we both brought new ideas. I'm still using her photos years later. Highly recommended. More...

Elisabeth came highly recommended to me from a trusted source and she exceeded my expectations. She was kind, professional, and had lots of great ideas for shots (posing, lighting, background, etc. ). She spent a great deal of time with me, making me feel comfortable and relaxed and pretty for my headshots. When it came to the photos themselves, it was hard to choose because I liked so many of them, but she helped with that as well. We had a semi-hot deadline to provide the headshots to my new company and turned them around in record time, even after I changed my mind a couple of times on the editing and polishing up of the images. She made sure that I was happy with the final product and was gracious with the requested changes (based on my indecisiveness, not anything to do with the quality of her shots, which were great). I would hire her again in a minute and highly recommend her for anyone, but especially for women or young girls, because of her soothing demeanor. She has a very zen-like quality that puts you so at ease that you forget you are taking photos (which I loathe normally) and instead feel like you are hanging out with a longtime friend. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually enjoyed having my pictures taken that day, which is an absolute first in my life! LOL More...

Michael Boston
Elisabeth is kind and respectful and really makes me feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is so important. She's open to ideas, uses the environment that you're in very well and always has a fresh idea to find an interesting moment that one would not expect for great photos. It's obvious that she truly loves what she's doing. All my favorite pics that I use just happen to be the ones she took! More...

Thank you Michael, I loved our creative collaborations.
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Good lighting! Confidence and trust is also important. Make the client feel really comfortable with me as a person, so he or she can be as relaxed and natural as possible. A sense of humor helps a lot
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What are you looking for? How are you planning to use the pictures?
What do you love most about your job?
The people I get to meet. The opportunity to capture some magical moments. The places I get to see. The interactions. The adventure.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Realizing that I'd be able to do this successfully on my own. By nature, working as a photographer is a solitary business.
Why should our clients choose you?
See if you like my pictures, and choose me if you think it's a good fit. If you're still unsure, I'm more than happy to have a conversation before the shoot.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can edit remotely, of course, but that's about it.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I'm usually outside and far away from the people I photograph, so they only changes I've made is to be more aware of not breathing when close to people, and if I'm inside someone's house, I wear a mask.
Portrait Photography
I do actors headshots, social media headshots, pictures for your online dating profile, business-cards, website and any other place you might need a great picture of yourself.
Proposal photography
I capture the magical moment where you go down on one knee and propose, and then take some gorgeous pictures of the happy couple afterwards.
Maternity photography
I take pictures of the expectant mother and father in the most beautiful settings. I absolutely love nature, and finding the perfect setting where the beauty of the mother-to-be really stands out.
Family Photography
I photograph families of all sizes, and for any occasion. Birthday parties, get togethers, anniversaries and engagements. In any family session, I make sure to get some individual pictures of anyone that wants them.
