About Lux Everlasting
Lux Everlasting
You may not know it, but you're actually not looking for a wedding photographer. After all, that is just one aspect of what we do! And I'm not a normal wedding vendor... I'm a commissionable artist and consultant to the aesthetics and atmosphere of your day with nearly 20 years of industry experience (including planning my husband and I's wedding).
Lux Everlasting is art-led, cinematic wedding images and films paired with effortless creative consulting. I've always been an artist, and my love for photography truly took hold when I photographed my first wedding in 2007. That day, I fell in love with everything about weddings. Weddings and elopements are incredible experiences but they can be a lot to plan by yourself! Allow me to be your photographer, and your calm in storm when you need advice. As a team, we will make your day more than you could have dreamed of. Contact me to apply for a 2026 Legacy Commission application.

Amazing
Lux Everlasting was an exceptional wedding photographer for our special day. From the very first interaction, they displayed an understanding and caring demeanor, providing fast responses and showing genuine excitement about capturing our wedding. Their communication style put us at ease and made the entire process seamless. The quality of their work was truly worth the investment - we look back at our stunning photos all the time and have several framed around our home. As a same-sex couple, we felt incredibly cared for and safe working with Lux Everlasting. They went above and beyond to make sure our day was captured beautifully. We could not be happier with the experience and would highly recommend them to any couple seeking an exceptional wedding photographer.
BEST wedding photographer!
Clayton and Jordan of Lux Everlasting photographed our June wedding and were absolutely incredible to work with from beginning to end. Clayton was so easy to work with, we immediately knew we wanted to work with him after our first initial consultation! To start, he took gorgeous engagements photos at a personalized location and promptly shared the photos with us. On our wedding day, he made my husband and I, my wedding party and all our guests feel at ease with their laid back but professional style. Clayton beautifully captured everything from our big day - from the artistic details to the emotional speeches to the dance floor, he got it all! He has an amazing artistic eye and documentarian style that truly reflected the joy of the day. I highly recommend Lux Everlasting and couldn't be happier with our photos and video!
the best photographer in the world
I cannot recommend Clayton and his team enough. He was so easy to communicate with, extremely professional, warm and kind, and so, so talented. Our wedding photos and film came out even better than I could have imagined. They are high quality, gorgeous, candid, and captured the magic of our day. It was a joy to have Clayton and his team by our sides all day. I love them so much. We were so lucky to have them as part of our day, and they really contributed to making the day perfect. I cannot recommend them enough. Every time I look at our photos or watch the film, I cry!! Just the best.
The most fun Photographer!
Clayton goes above and beyond. His attention to detail really sets him apart from the rest. He makes it fun fun too which helps if you get nervous having your photos taken! I highly recommend him!
