Hi, I’m Elle!

I’m a registered dietitian turned professional food photographer and food stylist, based in beautiful Bend, Oregon, USA.

With a Master’s in nutrition, I know food inside and out—how it cooks, how it tastes, and how to make it look incredible. I love bringing food stories to life through eye-catching visuals, focusing on those small details that make you stop scrolling and start salivating.

I’m naturally drawn to creating bright, clean, uplifting imagery, but I love mixing it up—whether that’s with hard light, soft light, dark and moody vibes, or something light and airy. Lately, I’ve been exploring more macro photography and capturing all the tiny, delicious details.

Most days, you’ll find me in the kitchen testing a new recipe, behind the camera in my home studio, or curled up on the couch editing photos. One of the things I love most about this work is that no two days ever look the same.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me writing something about minimalism, tidying up to a podcast, or hanging out with the kids. My favorite things include a good sweat, a big bowl of pasta, and low-key family time—whether that’s at home or exploring somewhere new.
