Hey, I'm Aleena!
Your wedding day is a celebration of love, an intimate moment shared between you and your partner, where the focus is solely on the bond you're creating. It's about creating memories that reflect who you are as a couple and embracing a day that is uniquely yours. By choosing to elope in the great outdoors, you're giving yourself the freedom to let your love story unfold against the backdrop of nature's breathtaking beauty.
Traditions are beautiful, but they are not a one-size-fits-all. It's perfectly alright to break free from the norms and create a wedding experience that aligns with your vision and values- even if its a little bit of both! This is your chance to let your personalities shine, to express your love in a way that feels authentic and true to who you are as a couple.
Because when you work with me,
you'll get An & Approach
Photos that reflect your connection, your energy, and the way your love feels, not just how it looks.

Crafting & Documenting your adventure
Whether you're planning an elopement with just the two of you or a wedding celebration with all your favorite people
Ditching traditions for the sake of tradition
Maybe you're choosing to elope because you don't want the stress of a big wedding, but you can't imagine such an important life milestone without the love and support of your community. You love the traditional aspects of a ceremony, breaking bread and toasting with your closest people, but adventure also calls your name.
Your elopement should feel effortless, allowing you to be fully present in every moment. The little details that mean the most—whether it's the way your partner looks at you, the wind in your hair, or the quiet joy between the two of you—will be captured with care. Every laugh, tear, and touch will be preserved in a way that feels real and true to your love story. You won’t have to worry about what comes next or if everything is being documented—you’ll have the freedom to enjoy your day exactly as it unfolds, knowing your memories will be captured beautifully and authentically.
Photos are the only tangible thing we can keep to remember a moment and feel those same feelings again. They bring us right back to that moment-- our surroundings, the smell, the warmth of the sun, all of it!

"Aleena does not need any direction, she knows exactly what she is doing."
My husband and I were blown away with how great our wedding photos turned out. She knew exactly how to guide us and had a ton of poses ready for us to do. She was super sweet and easy to talk to. She was patient with the guests that wanted special photos to be taken. Aleena does not need any direction, she knows exactly what she is doing. We are super happy with the overall turn out. I recommend Aleena 1000 percent!
My husband and I were blown away with how great our wedding photos turned out. She knew exactly how to guide us and had a ton of poses ready for us to do. She was super sweet and easy to talk to. On the day of the wedding, she did her thing while I was getting ready. I appreciated that because she didn’t need me to be there with her to walk her around the house. She was on time and had a complete schedule of the day. She was patient with the guests that wanted special photos to be taken. During the reception, she was always nearby taking posed and candid photos. Aleena does not need any direction, she knows exactly what she is doing. I liked the stories and reels she was posting on instagram while we waited for our photos to be delivered because they were creative and gave us something to be excited for. We are super happy with the overall turn out. I recommend Aleena 1000 percent!

"She worked great coordinating lots of people."
Aleena was an absolute gem to work with. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding and after shoot! She was easy to communicate with, worked great coordinating lots of people, and she got our photos back to us so quickly. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer!
