Moments that feel

like memory

I’m Megan

Hey there friend…

This isn’t about perfect photos

Your wedding day isn’t a production. It’s a lived experience — layered with nerves, joy, intimacy, and meaning.
I approach weddings and elopements as stories unfolding in real time, documenting what it felt like to be there, not just what it looked like.

With gentle guidance and a calm presence, I create space for real moments to happen — then shape them into an intentional archive you’ll return to for the rest of your life.

I capture real moments with a poetic, editorial eye, blending movement, emotion, and storytelling into images that feel timeless, artful, and alive. Inspired by the Pacific Northwest, my work turns light, landscape, and connection into photography that looks like memory and feels like magic.

My work is documentary in spirit: honest, layered, and alive. I love meeting new people and turning their unique story into imagery that feels like memory, not just a photograph—a collection of moments you can step back into, again and again.

Grounded in the Pacific Northwest

Washington has its own rhythm — shifting light, wild weather, quiet forests, dramatic coastlines.
I bring local knowledge, environmental awareness, and experience working in unpredictable conditions so your day flows naturally, even when plans shift.

From permits to timelines to weather backup plans, you’re not navigating this alone.

For couples whose days are filled with feeling, presence, and poetry — I’d love to capture the story only you can tell.

Kind Words

  • Communication with Megan was easy and authentic! Chris and I were able to fully be ourselves during the shoot weather it was kicking water at each other, smoochin’ or being funny with our sunglasses. I felt the beauty of pregnancy both inside and out during our shoot!

    Janessa and Chris

  • Absolutely LOVED working with you. Let’s be real friends?! You have such an eye for beauty and light on top of being an incredible communicator and so relationally engaged. Thanks for creating so much room for love and sweetness in this season. It truly felt like the best pause to savor all that engagement is. You have a huge gift!

    Allie and Jacob

  • We enjoyed every bit of our working together. Everything was perfect. You bring love to light!

    Sophia and Robert

  • Megan did an amazing job with our newborn photos! Even though our baby was being a bit fussy while she was here, she took her time and helped us feel very comfortable. The photos turned out so beautiful and we will cherish them forever!

    Brittany and Nick

  • You were so sweet and made everything feel so natural for us. I was a little worried (having never done this before) that it would feel forced & awkward and it was neither of those. We felt so comfortable, and enjoyed chatting with you, and spending time together as a couple!

    Britt and Joel

  • Wow, Megan—I feel that you have perfectly captured what it is I dreamed this to be. How special it is that you know me as an artist so well, and that you have co-wrote, sang with, and now done a photoshoot for me. Your idea of movements was brilliant, I can see all of them telling a story and you are so gifted at not just pointing and shooting, but weaving together something that feels living and truthful. I cherish each and every photo you took. Your time and talents are helping me believe in myself as an artist.
