Roxana.
Officiant @thehytch
Hello! I’m Roxana Morton, excited to be part of your special day. Originally from Ensenada, Mexico, I moved to Reno in 2020 for my M.S. in Chemical Engineering. I fell in love with this vibrant city and its welcoming community. In 2022, I started working in the wedding industry and discovered my passion for organizing weddings. Despite my full-time engineering job, I became a wedding assistant and officiant to witness true happiness in others.
I craft personalized ceremonies that reflect each couple’s unique love story, honoring different cultures and traditions. Let’s create unforgettable memories in English or Spanish!

This is who I am…
I am a part of the mountains and the snow and the cheeseburger birds.
I am a part of the desert and the spirits of our past and the sand and my family.
I am part of the lakes and the streams and the beauty of my Nevada home.
I am a part of the African savannas and the thrill of adventures across the world
I would be privileged to join you together and be part of your forever journey…
Love, Laugh, Explore.

This is all about your day, but here’s a little about me! As a Northern Nevada native, I enjoy most of all the gorgeous scenery I get to work and live in. On my free time you’ll find me taking photos (of everything!), hiking, cooking and caring for my plethora of houseplants. I started working as an event coordinator with The Hytch in 2021 and fell in love with the work immediately. It was always an absolute honor to be present during the most important day of your life, and with that I knew officiating was the next step for me! My goal is to help find the language that represents and honors your love. Your love story is one of a kind and I’m here to develop the words that represent that. We will work together to create a ceremony that speaks true to your unique love, binds you to each other and delivers you and your family joy and love on your special day! I would be absolutely honored to be a part of your love story. ♥️

Ashleigh.
Photographer @thehytch
Ashleigh is a born and raised Nevadan with a passion for capturing love and authenticity. She stumbled into photography when taking an extra elective in college to capture her kids as they grew. She realized immediately that real moments are the ones that matter the most and has made that her business motto from the start.
When she isn’t behind the camera, you’ll find her spending time with her husband and three children, renovating their house or dreaming up some sort of grand adventure.
Ciara.
Photographer @thehytch
I’m Ciara! Telling your love story through my lens is my favorite obsession. I’m all about the in between moments and emotive candid shots. I love capturing moments you can look back on in 10 years and still feel like it just happened yesterday.
I absolutely love meeting new people and being able to celebrate love. When I’m not behind the camera you can find me spending time with my beautiful family, on a hunt for anything vintage in the thrift store, or obsessing over a new coffee shop. In the last few years my relationship with Jesus has grown so beautifully, and that’s how I found myself on this wonderful journey, to capture his best creation and greatest love; YOU! 🥰
