Hello! I’m Elizabeth and this is my joy-filled crew! I am a Colorado photographer, writer, blogger, & homeschooler. More importantly, I am a Christ follower, wife, mama, sister, daughter, and friend! Welcome to Oak + Oats!

Here we look for the remarkable in the every day, we find purpose in the mundane, and joy in all circumstances. We love photographing our daily moments, making memories, and sharing our favorite things here in this space.

Our happiest days are spent together – many of those with a camera in hand! My free time is spent behind my computer screen sharing our tips and stories with you – or reading a good book on the porch – or jotting down thoughts in one of my many journals. We are glad you are here!
