Engagements

this is for you if you're ready to hard launch your wedding (free with any wedding package)

There's seriously NO relationship in the world like yours, and this is quite literally a way to show off everything you've built together. This is also great *exposure therapy* to being in front of the camera (don't worry I'll be right there with ya)!

Picking lavender, a sunrise surf session, frolicking in fields, hiking Mt. Lassen, working in the garage together - whatever the backdrop to your love story is, you are the stars of the show.

MY APPROACH

Let's get into it.

warm  \  comfortable  \  friendly

Welcome to your very own little rom com with the happiest ending! There's no script, just a camera guy (me!) following you around, guiding and helping you lean into each other the ENTIRE time.

You won't need to ask what to do with your hands, or what facial expression to use because you'll forget you're even taking photos in the first place.

location tailored to your vision

comfortable, guided experience

the experience includes...

PRINTING RIGHTS

2 outfit changes

INVESTMENT

During our time together you'll be jumping, twirling, snuggling, and loving all up on each other - basically a super fun date night with a little cardio and lots of PDA. My style is a healthy mix of effortless, documentary-like candids with a touch of photos mom can't wait to put on her fridge (you know what I'm talking about).

I loved working with Arielle! She was so sweet and so fun to work with! She made us feel so comfortable and definitely made my vision come to life! We came all the way from Minnesota to work with her! We eloped less than 2 weeks later and kindly asked if she could have the pictures ready sooner and she was very accommodating!

I truly felt she went above and beyond for us

- Megan + Luke

We absolutely loved working with Arielle. One thing that really stuck out was her friendly and bubbly spirit! Arielle is so easy to work with, and made the entire shoot feel so light-hearted and fun. If you're looking for a great photographer to work with, she is definitely your gal!

- Kelsea + Conor

There are no words to describe the incredible experience my fiance and I had with Arielle! We're both goofy, awkward and very low maintenance couple so taking pictures is something we are not used to. When we got our photos we were so in love! She captured our relationship perfectly and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Thank you so much Arielle!

TESTIMONIALS

will you photoshop us?

We love every body here! If there's an obvious photobomb or poorly timed zit, you bet its sayonara sammy (New Girl ref). Other than that I won't do any retouching that affects the way you look naturally.

To air on the side of cliché - wear what you feel comfortable in! Earthy tones always photograph well: creams, browns, muted blues and greens, rust. For your outfits, you could bring one dress and one bottom/top combo, or two different kinds of button downs. Mix a big pattern w/ a small pattern. The world is your oyster. 

What should we wear?

how many photos do we get?

Each engagement session comes with a minimum of 35 photos. Lucky for all of us, I tend to get a little camera happy and always overshoot - long story short you'll most likely receive more photos than promised!

Travel fees are included for ALL of the following: Joshua Tree, Yosemite, Santa Barbara, Big Sur, and Orange County. Outside that range? Let's talk details and get this travel on a budget!
