Learn More About Me
As an introvert and empath myself, I know how overwhelming traditional weddings can feel.
My own elopement taught me how powerful it is to choose yourselves and protect your peace and energy.
Think of me as your photographer, planning guide, and supportive friend with a camera.
Hey, I’m Peter.
A few Kind words...
"Peter was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, guiding us through locations, timelines, vendors, and every detail so our day felt smooth and stress-free.
He kept us laughing, helped us feel natural in front of the camera, and truly went above and beyond for us.
When we received our photos, we were absolutely in love. The images exceeded our expectations and captured every moment beautifully.
We highly recommend Peter to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and genuinely fun photographer to work with."

Redwoods Elopement
"Peter helped with locations, permits, timing, and a personalized timeline, making the entire experience feel easy and stress-free.
It never felt like he was just taking photos. He was genuinely invested in our experience and how the day felt for us.
When we got our gallery back, all our favorite moments were there, from the epic mountain views to the candid memories in between.
If you're looking for someone kind, laid-back, and willing to go the extra mile, we'd 100% recommend Peter 3 Photography."
