Where Photography Meets Real Backcountry Knowledge

No More Refreshing The Weather App & Crossing Your Fingers

You deserve someone who knows the mountains like a pro.

Thats where I my experience and knowledge comes in with my... 

Hidden overlooks, quiet ridges, alpine lakes, and “how does this even exist?!” spots — scouted with Google Earth, Gaia GPS, and personally by me before your day. Locations that match your vision and comfort — no guesswork, no crowds, no "what if"..


01 — Custom Location Mapping

 I keep an eye on NOAA forecasts, wildfire updates, avalanche reports, and seasonal conditions, so you don’t have to obsessively refresh your weather app. You get a day that feels safe, intentional, and planned with real expertise.


02 — Weather & Safety You Can Rely On

Full moon ceremonies. Sunrise peaks. Low-tide beaches. Golden alpenglow on a mountain. If it requires timing, I’m tracking it — you just get to experience it.

Heather & Michael | Eloped in Mammoth, CA

”We are not usually comfortable in front of the camera, but she put us at ease right away and made it a lot of fun to be the center of attention. She was super flexible with us in terms of our timeline and dealing with inclement weather that decided to roll in on the day of our scheduled event. She scouted out awesome locations that we couldn't find ourselves and took beautiful photos that we will come back to for the rest of our lives. From the very beginning, she took the time to carefully answer our questions and provide us with guidance that helped us plan a day that turned out so well. She has such a wonderful personality and we felt like we were hanging out with a friend all day. We left happy and would proudly recommend Kendall to anyone!”

”Kendall was all of the things you hope a photographer would be on a fun, important and crazy day”
