So you can re-live the joy of this season every time you see your photos.
I offer wedding and lifestyle photography for those drawn to timeless, organic imagery.
Using photography as a way to celebrate people since 2024
I’m Elana Joy
I have the classic story—I have always loved photography, ever since I was a little girl. What started out as a hobby quickly became my dream as I grew up. But my bigger dream is making people feel seen and celebrated. No matter your season, I’ll show up to make you laugh and rejoice with you as I capture the most beautiful milestones you will ever experience.
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths".
A Few Things I Love
01
MY FAITH
My faith in Jesus is the foundation of my life. Photography allows me to come alongside my clients and make them feel known, loved, and celebrated. When my clients feel loved by me, this ultimately reflects Christ's deep, unconditional love for them. Romans 10:9
02
FILLING MY PASSPORT
I love to travel, experience new places, and try different foods, all while exploring God’s creation and creating lasting memories.
03
COFFEE WITH A FRIEND
Long conversations with a friend over a good cup of coffee are like my version of PB&J.
04
COLLECTING BOOKS
Reading a good book and collecting books for my library are some of my favorite pastimes. You can usually find me at the local bookstore searching for books to add to my collection.
Trends come and go.
That’s why I intentionally photograph in beautiful, timeless, true-to-life color.
I want you to love the way you look today, tomorrow, and fifty years from now and be able to relive the joy you felt in this season every time you look at your photos. I help you relax into that joy that is already present by thoughtfully guiding you through poses that naturally bring out your personality and emotions.
