adventure sessions
you know you want to take them, but you're not sure how. this is the how, the when, and the where.
Whether its the day before, the month after, or a year later, there’s always time to opt outside (sponsor us REI)! I'm a regular at Joshua Tree and Yosemite National Parks, but you can bet if you want to put on the wedding gear and trek somewhere new, I’m bringing my pass, boots, and the snacks.

Let's get into it.

This is where the crazy adventure lady in me comes out (I'm the type to be planning the next trip while still on the current one haha). I love scheduling out everything to make your adventure as stress-free as possible so you can soak up the landscape around you. Trailheads, snack breaks, touch ups, you got it!

initial call
meet & shoot
We'll meet outside the park and caravan in (since cell service can be spotty). We'll stop at our spots and any other pretty places we see along the way. Don't worry, we'll have water and snack breaks!
delivery
All of that adventure will be wrapped up in a pretty little gallery and delivered in 2 weeks for you guys to think "damn we're cool" for years to come.
We'll talk over how far (or not far) we want to hike, comfort-levels, places you've gotta see, and everything else.

My fiance and I went to California on vacation and knew we wanted our engagement pictures done at Joshua Tree. I stumbled upon Arielle's page on Instagram and it could not have been a better experience! She made us feel so comfortable and easy-going taking pictures and we had so much fun!
if you find arielle on your search for a photographer book her!

- Pam + Eric
Hiring Arielle to capture us was the absolute best decision! Speaking on the phone with her to nail down all the details for our session was so easy + pleasant as she made me feel like we were friends on a catch-up phone call! She was so kind and helpful to make sure we had all the required permits for our shoot. We love Arielle and would definitely recommend...her.
we fell in love with every single picture
