Hi, I'm Elise!

I am a wedding and elopement photographer serving couples in Utah, Idaho, and wherever your adventure takes you. With a BFA in Photography from Utah Valley University and over six years of photography experience, I capture genuine emotions and authentic moments in beautiful locations. I love working in natural spaces, using mountains, deserts, forests, and light to create photos that feel grounded, connected, and true to you.

let's explore

Beyond the camera . . .

Elise Christensen and her husband enjoying time together outdoors in Utah

my favorite adventure partner


I married my best friend, Andrew, in November 2025. These days, you'll find us hiking somewhere beautiful in Utah, baking together, or enjoying our favorite kind of date night: ice cream and a movie.

He is my favorite adventure partner, biggest supporter, and the person I want beside me for all of life's little moments. I couldn't imagine experiencing life without him.

MY FURRY ADVENTURE BUDDIES


We have two puppies, Trogdor and Link. They love joining us on our hikes and getting outside whenever they can. Trogdor was rescued when Andrew and I were dating, and Link joined the family a week before we got married. They became inseperable soon after, and are just like brothers. We love them dearly.

MY KIND OF ADVENTURE


I love being outside just as much as I love photographing it. This is from a hike I took in Utah a few years ago called Donut Falls. I might be a little crazy, but there's something about hiking through the snow that I absolutely love.

Maybe that's why I love photographing love stories in the first place. There's nothing better than exploring somewhere beautiful with the person you love and having the photographs to remember it by!
