Meet the Photographer
Welcome to the goon squad...
...I'm Elise Hagensen
Welcome! If you've made it this far I'm stoked because we are going to be friends. I started photography 15+ years ago (yikes) and the rest is history - what matters now is YOUR story.
I have a laid back approach that leans into your personality quirks highlighting what makes you and your journey so rad. So let's kick it, get to know one another and have fun documenting some memories.
Testimonials
Sarah + John
Elise is amazing! Wonderful to work with before the shoot, during, and after. She went above and beyond to find the perfect location for our maternity shoot based on my vision. She went to locations and sent me videos and photos to share what her vision was for the space before we decided on the perfect place. Weather wasn't in our favor, but she was super flexible with changing up times and providing a rain date as well. Couldn't recommend her more!
Testimonials

I love working with Elise! She has an incredible eye, and a warm encouraging presence. I always appreciate how helpful she is with styling suggestions - from what to wear to how to pose. Her direction is clear and gentle, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. If you are looking for a photographer who's equal parts creative genius and hype woman, she's your girl!
