Not just a photographer,
i'm natasha
hi there!
you threw out the rule book
✔ Unique and Personal: You want to get married in a way that holds value and prioritizing your commitment to each other over anything else.
✔ Less Stress: You decided to skip the fuss with planning a traditional wedding. With elopements you create value in what matters to you the most.
✔ Adventure and Heartfelt Locations: Whether it's a mountaintop, atop a glacier, a beach, or a foreign city, you envision your elopement to be celebrated in a place that holds special meaning.
✔ Freedom and Flexibility: Pick a date and location and count me in. Elopements offer greater flexibility in terms of timing and location. Couples aren't tied to a specific venue's availability or traditional wedding timelines and can choose the date and place that suit them best.
✔ Avoiding Family Drama: Eloping allows couples to avoid these potential issues and focus solely on your relationship.
and now You're craving an out-of-this-world elopement experience and a photographer who you can trust

I'm ready to adventure
Being a photographer for the past 4 years (and for funsies most of my life) means I have had the honor of documenting endless life stories. I have photographed everything under the sun: weddings, couples, cultural ceremonies, elopements, graduations, real estate, family, corporate headshots, branding, newborn, and so much more. From the top of glaciers to windowless corporate offices, this shift to experience more intimate spaces never felt so right.
why i love elopements + Intimate weddings
My lesson: If You Try To Serve Everyone, You'll Serve No One
As someone who solely photographed traditional, large weddings for the past 4 years, choosing to focus solely on elopements and micro-weddings didn't come easily. Weddings have always been my bread and butter and every single one has a special place in my heart. As I have grown, my love for elopement experiences ignited a new passion. I would love for you to be apart of my next journey and I can't wait to learn why you are choosing to elope.
Love notes from real couples
My Love Language = Words Of Affirmations
Kevin + Quynh
"We are very awkward but she made us look so natural in front of the camera with all her helpful prompts. She managed to capture our goofy personalities in the candid shots in between all the lovely posed pictures. Her pictures are light and airy and you can feel the emotions of those in the pictures."
Cameron + Victoria
"We had the pleasure of having Natasha be our photographer and it was one of the best decisions we have ever made. She captured every moment of our day and was a true joy to be around! The quality of the photos was everything we hoped for and more! The absolute best and one of the nicest people you’ll meet!"
Son Ca + Marlon
"We booked Natasha for our elopement. She was not only flexible, she was also very genuine and made us feel comfortable. Our pictures turned out beautiful despite our tiny space and sparse decorations. She captured the feeling of our elopement well and integrated the details and sites of our story that was important to us. I highly recommend booking Natasha as your photographer for those special moments in your life."

Everyone has a story
2010
Life started in the burbs of Boston, Massachusetts. Take a peak at Natasha's life journey. When you're ready, I'd love to hear yours.
2011
Designated family and friend photographer for years to come. That included creating many Facebook albums and tagging everyone, printing every photo and plastering them all over my childhood walls.
2017
Graduated College at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (fun fact: my bro and I graduated on the same exact day although we are 2 years apart and went to different colleges!)
2018
2020
The pandemic started, I had safely left an abusive relationship, my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. This happened all within 3 months, in that very order. I was internally spiraling...
2020
Out of boredom I got my first professional camera. Stuck with me like glue everywhere I went. In an attempt to escape to some solace, I was officially enamored by photography. Asked anyone and anything to stand in front of my camera at every sunset. It was healing being the creator for so many memories.
Transferred to 3 different colleges. I was a lost soul and didn't know what I wanted to do or who I was. Moved back home as I was mentally struggling with my identity.
2021
2013
Got my first little point-and-shoot camera. My cat Snowball was my on-call model for days on end, thousands of selfies were taken. Real pic attached, I did not take this at midnight, I didn't know how to change the time haha!
2022
Got my first big girl job in Boston! Photography took a pause. Hadn't picked up a camera in years. Welcomed Oli, my kitty, to the family.
I took the terrifying leap to go full time with photography. I started second shooting and getting experience everywhere I could at weddings. The most hectic weekend I had was photographing 4 weddings in a row, in a different state every day! I vowed after my "yes" year that I was going to establish boundaries.
2023
2023
The thing about life is that it never waits or pauses. Through the loss of my dad, I had also booked 35 weddings that year. This year marked the most fulfilling yet chaotic year to date.
2023
After years of it just being a passing thought. I always pictured life in the west coast, specifically in San Diego, California. I manifested this into existence and I'm loving my new home.

My love for elopements and intimate weddings transformed into something deeper. Once I grasped the value, I was hooked.
My story is still unfolding, just like yours. As I continuously transform, I am becoming exactly who I need to be at this very moment.
Thank you for taking the time to learn what makes me unique. I continuously find solace through connecting with others through my lens. Now let's learn your story.
My angel, my cheerleader, the first man I ever loved. My dad, Peter, passed away surrounded by his family. A grief that will never leave me. He is my guidance through my journey for the rest of my life. I owe it to him for being my lucky charm in times of doubt.
Met my now significant other and my safe space. Our first trip was to Iceland! I also shot my first wedding with ZERO experience. This started my love for capturing love.
Here's mine
