“Tradition didn’t quite suit us either but tacos, tequila, and our closest people felt just right.”
So, I get it because I’ve been there too! When I got engaged, I knew instantly that a big, traditional wedding wasn’t for me. The thought of standing in front of hundreds of people I hadn’t seen in years? Hard pass.
We I wanted was an experience. Something intimate, intentional, and full of the people who actually mattered. That’s exactly why I do what I do, because your wedding day should feel like you, not like a performance.

Your Adventure, Your Way
No big weddings, just epic elopements
I’ve built my entire career around adventure elopements, because from day one, I knew this was where I belonged. I’ve never photographed big traditional weddings, only elopements and intimate weddings with fewer than 35 people.
But here’s the thing – Adventure looks different for everyone.
Maybe it’s a sunrise hike to a mountaintop, or maybe it’s sipping coffee on the porch of a mountain lodge with your favorite people nearby. Whatever your vision, I’m here to bring it to life.
More Than a Wedding, It’s an Experience!
Eloping isn’t just about finding a beautiful place. It’s about crafting an experience that feels like you. With years of experience and deep knowledge of adventure elopements, I’ve crafted an experience that takes the guesswork out of planning, so you can focus on what truly matters: celebrating your love in the most meaningful way possible.
I’ll help you find the perfect spot, from hidden trails to epic overlooks. With expert recommendations, seasonal insights, and a deep knowledge of breathtaking locations.
Expert Resources & Guidance
Permits, timelines, travel logistics consider it covered. With expert planning resources, backup plans, and real world elopement experience, I’ll make sure your day flows seamlessly so you can focus on what matters most.
Unforgettable Moments
Just real, unscripted moments captured as they unfold. Whether it’s a quiet exchange of vows, an awe struck look at the view, or laughter echoing through the mountains, your photos will feel as meaningful as the experience itself.
My Values
Capturing intentional elopement experiences that spark connection & feel like you.
I became an elopement photographer because I believe your wedding day deserves more than a timeline, a venue, or a script to follow. It should feel like a reflection of who you are, and spacious enough to hold the kind of moments you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
This work is where planning support, storytelling, and adventure come together to create a wedding experience that feels grounding, meaningful, and wildly unforgettable.
