Calling in all my LGBTQ, Tattooed, Alternative + Adventure seeking Couples!

Lets chat about ELopements

Are you engaged, overwhelmed with wedding planning, and curious if an Elopement is right for you?
You came to the right place.

| An elopement can be as simple or as curated as you want - no rules apply here.
If you are stressed at the idea of expensive venues, vendors, decorations etc. and don't want to drop your entire life savings for ONE day then you may want to consider ditching the traditions and doing something a little more unique, and intimate.
Come as you are - and let me celebrate your love!


5 reasons to Elope:


  • Save THOUSANDS of dollars in vendors
  • Less waste = Environmentally friendly
  • No stressing about set up/break down
  • One of a kind imagery that tells your unique story as a couple
  • No shoes necessary

"Who can come to an Elopement? "


There are many misconceptions about elopements and who can attend.

Its not just for drunken Vegas nights (but we are here for that vibe too!) or skipping off to the mountains with just an officiant and a photographer.

Don't choose between a stress free wedding and one that includes your loved ones - You can absolutely bring your parents, best friends, and a small bridal party to your intimate ceremony!

In fact, I encourage it.


Bring Mom + Dad, your Auntie/ uncle, braddahs + friends

(but maybe not your third cousin twice removed)

Lets get you married on an epic Mountain Peak , Glacier or waterfall - or anywhere else your heart desires! When it comes to this - Honey you get to have it ALL.

Leaning on the traditional side?


Let me document every detail - from getting ready with your bridal party, intimate details of the venue, and of course, the highly anticipated I-Do's! I am happy to be by your side as long as you need me, and cannot bring myself to leave until I am confident every shot, and important moment was captured.


"Where Do I Start? "


One of the most important vendors you hire is your photographer.

When considering your options and the style you're looking for, look for someone who you can imagine spending all day with. Someone who will ease your stresses and make sure your photos look like it was the easiest day of your LIFE.


Wedding clients have the option to book a complimentary Engagement session.

Engagement sessions are a great way to to work together and pass the vibe check before your wedding!

(+ Use your images for announcements or invitations!)

As your vendor, I take my work seriously, but I also want my clients to feel so comfortable that you forget you're on a shoot altogether!

Go with the flow!

No wedding in the history of the weddings - goes perfectly according to plan. From rain storms, traffic jams, to the occasional wardrobe malfunctions - I have seen it ALL.


It is important to have someone by your side to remind you that at the end of the day - No one is going to remember the little things that didn't go perfectly. They are going to remember the smiles on your face and the tears in your eyes as you proclaim your love for eachother. The clinking of glasses and the cheering from your friends and family. Life is not perfect, dont set that expectation on your wedding either!


Take what comes and be rest assured- I will do everything in my power to ensure we get every shot - every time.

Tips to ease the stress on your wedding day


  • Take your family portraits the day before at the dress rehearsal to free up time, + save the hassle of corralling your whole family + bridal party [like herding cats.]
  • Delegate your Person of honor to assist in small tasks such as fixing your dress, gathering important people, and making sure that your glass is ALWAYS full.
  • Plan for everything to take longer than you think it will - so you don't have to worry about running over the timeline.
  • Pack a small bag with makeup wipes, touch up needs, sweat towels, needle & thread for emergencies or to freshen up between portraits.
  • Opt for an unplugged wedding so your ceremony photos aren't littered with selfie sticks, Ipads and cellphones!

FAQ

How Far in advance should I book?

Industry standard is usually a year out from your wedding date. However, life happens, Elopements have become very popular in recent years which typically requires less planning. Most of my couples book 3 months to 6 months in advance, but if I am available I can take on last minute requests 2 weeks out.

I am currently accepting all inquiries for 2024!

Do you offer Video?

Currently, I do not offer videography services. My packages include coverage of your event for stills only - However if you are seeking dual coverage, I am happy to send local reccomendations. We have several talented peers who focus only on the moving parts, and intimate moments shared during your Wedding!

Can we request specific shots?

Absolutely within reason!
I am more than happy to accommodate specific goals and shots you want for your wedding!
I work with my couples and their planners, to sort out a shot list and timeline prior to the event to ensure we have enough time for each grouping. Any requests will be included in your timeline to approve and review.

I do not however, accept long laundry lists of shots and requests that allow little time to accomplish. I am happy to go over these ideas and help select and organize what you have into a structured and manageable timeline.

How Do I know you are the right fit for us?

Finding a vendor that vibes with you is one of the most important things you can do for your wedding - I get it.

Every inquiring wedding couple is offered a complimentary 30 min consultation with no strings attached. This way you can get a feel for my personality, how I operate and ask any important questions with no obligation to book!

I am the perfect vendor for couples who are tattooed, lgbtq, 420 + fun loving and are prioritizing elements that tell their combines love story.
I am here for the unconventional, crazy, and out-of-the-box ideas!

What is your delivery window?

Every session is a little different - and I strive to maintain healthy work/life balance.
Elopements + Weddings typically take 4-8 weeks. I strive to send some sneak peeks within a week of the event.

Boudoir / Standard sessions will take 2-3 weeks depending on the selected package.

TFP sessions (Traded services + Model Calls) take last priority behind paying clients and may take up to 5 weeks or more depending on the season.
