Freedom to be you
Why choose me as your photographer?
With me, there’s no pressure to perform or fit into someone else’s idea of what a wedding should be. Just the two of you, in a beautiful Coeur d’Alene setting, doing what feels right — whether that’s exchanging vows along the lake, sharing a quiet toast in the forest, or dancing in your hiking boots at sunset.
I photograph intimate elopements and offer an all-inclusive package that keeps things simple: photography, flowers, a small couples cake and an officiant. If it’s just the two of you, I can also officiate. If you’re inviting a few guests, I work with trusted local officiants who share the same relaxed, personal approach.
My style is unposed and gentle, with light guidance when you need it — so your day feels natural, emotional, and completely your own.
Let’s make your Coeur d’Alene elopement effortless and unforgettable.

Why we chose Anita
"When we met Anita it was like everything just clicked."
"She just got us.
As we planned our elopement at Priest Lake, we weren’t sure we’d find a photographer who really understood where we are in life. But from the very beginning, everything just felt easy—like we were in good hands.
There was an instant connection. She knew how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and we appreciated that she brings both experience and heart to her work. It was refreshing to work with someone who shares a similar outlook—someone who’s lived a little and truly understands how meaningful this moment was for us.
She captured the emotion, the laughter, and all those quiet, in-between moments that made the day so special. Nothing ever felt rushed or staged—it was just real.
Anita didn’t just take beautiful photos (though she absolutely did); she helped create an experience that felt calm, natural, and totally us."
-Mike and Reanna

"She really listened to what we were hoping to accomplish, organizing everything seamlessly around what we wanted — and freeing us from stress.
She even went as far as to help put the bouquet together and brought thoughtful accessories that enhanced our day.
She worked with us to make sure the photos we dreamed of were possible — even scouting out locations ahead of time so all we had to do was show up.
We aren’t frequent subjects of photoshoots, but she made it easy. Her direction felt natural, and our poses suited each backdrop perfectly.
Her flexibility and willingness to adapt to our needs meant everything — and the quiet moments in between (hiking, chatting) made it clear she could be a friend to anyone within a day.
Every picture turned out beautifully. Her enthusiasm was obvious and it shows in the final results.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to plan and document our elopement.”
— Michael & Kyla

What is the difference between an elopement and intimate wedding?
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide other photography services such as seniors or maternity sessions?
Elopements can just be the couple or shared with a few close friends and family, consisting of 5-10 guests depending on the restrictions of the planned location. Elopements take place somewhere in nature, including national parks that will usually require permits and making arrangements well in advance.
Intimate weddings can range from 10-25 guests depending on the restrictions of the location. Couples may choose to capture their ceremony more like an elopement with a celebration of more guests later in the day. Intimate weddings may take place somewhere out in nature or at a small wedding venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
DO YOU TRAVEL?
It all depends on what your vision of your day looks like. If you are having a quick ceremony and only want a few images of sharing your vows and portraits, a four hour session is plenty.
However, if you want to have a relaxed day and a bit of adventure including getting ready, first look, family portraits, and dancing under the stars as you end your day, you will want to look for a 8-10 hour timeline to ensure you get photos of your entire day.
Do you have an example Timeline?
Yes! I travel all over the country to capture love stories. Let me know what location you're looking at, or if you're still unsure, I can help you decide!
