Adventure Elopement Packages

It’s all about creating an experience on the day you get married and having it documented iN a really meaningful way!

Being able to connect with couples like you, who just crave something a little deeper than surface level is what I’m all about. Couples who would rather wander hiking trails than follow the latest trends – and value who value an experience for their wedding day over one filled with unnecessary things and traditions that don’t feel like them.

You’re seeking a different approach

I’m here to turn that vision into reality. Every couple at some point is right where you are – starting the whole planning journey, who go from feeling overwhelmed, not knowing where to begin – to having a fully mapped-out, uniquely crafted elopement day.

From finding the perfect location…

I believe that the place you say your vows should make you feel – thats why I am so passionate about connecting couples with nature and helping them find their dream elopement location. I am obsessed with discovering all the hidden gems in unique corners of the world. Whether you’re envisioning mountain top views, a hidden alpine lake, dramatic cliffside on the coast or somewhere deep in the desert between the Joshua Trees – I’ve got you!

Navigating you through all the details & logistics…

Beyond actually documenting all these amazing memories to come, I’m 100% here to help make sure you two feel supported for everything leading up to your day. There’s nothing I love more than crafting personalized and unforgettable experiences from start to finish for each of my couples, and I truly can’t wait to create yours by:

↠ Creating a Personalized Planning Guide

↠ Finding stunning, unique, and personalized locations

↠ Recommending incredible local vendors

↠ Crafting a customized and relaxed timeline of your day

↠ Guidance on permit applications and your marriage license

↠ Being your all-in-one guide for any and all things elopements

& honestly so much more

To documenting your unforgettable experience.

Then when the day comes, I will be there not only to capture the big, small and in-between moments throughout the day but to help support you through the whole thing. My approach is very documentary, never forcing moments to happen, but rather capturing the day exactly how it unfolds then delivering this beautiful story of your day, so that when you get your gallery, you can relive every moment of your day and not only memories that will be sparked 5, 10, 15+ years down the road but the feelings that came along with them.

Trail Reviews

SHE was phenomenal from the literal MOMENT we spoke. 10/10, 5 stars, 2 thumbs up, she’s awesome!

When I got to her website I knew immediately she was a better fit overall for both photo & video. Her vibe was just right. Then we spoke & I knew I was making the right decision.  Rylee was SO helpful & responsive through out the entire planning process. She guided us & helped with recommendations. When the time came for our day, she even brought coffee/ breakfast for us. The day was beautiful & they were just as relaxed as we needed. We needed our video for a party back home before we really needed the edited photos so Rylee worked to get that to us as well as a bunch of sneak peak photos. ALL of it was beautiful. Not a dry eye at the party & countless compliments were thrown at the end products.  I receive comments & compliments all the time about our elopement photos. Truly don’t think we would have gotten these forever keepsakes of the most amazing day if it weren’t for Rylee. Plus she’s a badass, super freaking kind & an overall awesome human.  

Marissa & Jamal

a true story of clients turned into close friends.

“Rylee was nothing short of absolutely amazing when it came to being our wedding photographer. Her extensive knowledge of PNW elopement locations helped make choosing to elope on the other side of the county a no-brainer. Due to undesirable weather conditions on the day of our wedding, we chose to go to our backup location. While still rainy & cold, Rylee made sure to make our day as seamless as possible.

From day one, my husband and I instantly clicked with Rylee’s down-to-earth vibes. Little did we know when choosing our wedding photographer, we’d be making a friend too! I would recommend Rylee to anyone who is considering to elope not only just in the PNW but anywhere!”

2023 North Cascades Elopement

Nikita & Brandon braved the elements – we pivoted with the unforeseen weather and created an unforgettable experience by meticulous preparation & planning.

“I cannot rave enough about Rylee!! She is the freaking BEST!! While we were planning she was like a planner, photographer, and best friend all in one package! She was so responsive, made me feel comfortable and prepared. We had an intimate first look and then a small 20 person wedding, and she helped with ALL of it! She scouted locations for our hike, even going there and sending me videos. The weekend of our wedding the weather was NUTS and caused power outages, snow, rain, the works…YET Rylee and her day of coordinator Jess literally handled everything for me from changing venues to organizing guests. She still woke up and hiked with us in the snow, and came prepared with thermal clothes and handwarmers for us. Seriously, she is hands down the BEST!!!! We had sneak peeks literally the next day, like what the heck she is also super woman!”

2022 North Cascades Elopement

I would leave 6 stars if I could!! It is truly something special to have someone you are comfortable with and excited to be around on your special day.

We LOVE Rylee and keep coming back for more! We first met Rylee when we hired her to shoot our private, legal elopement at the Seattle courthouse. We absolutely adored our photos and adored her even more. Now we have her shooting our adventure elopement in Olympic National Park that our family is participating in next month. Having Rylee as your photographer is like bringing your best friend along for your elopement. It is truly something special to have someone you are comfortable with and excited to be around on your special day. Rylee is all of that and more- would leave 6 stars if I could!!

Emma & August

We adventured through Colorado on this Multi-Day Elopement – Truly Living in the moment!

Rylee is one of a kind. I find it almost hard to put into words what an amazing person she truly is. Our elopement was so beautiful, emotional, and perfect. Rylee helped us scout out our location and literally found a place with everything on our list: lake, waterfall, mountains, and lush trees. She made us feel so comfortable and confident the entire day and we never felt any stress/timeline issues. Rylee went above and beyond for us in so many ways and I have recommended her to a lot of friends. If you’re thinking of eloping this is your gal!

Kelly & Matt

We are still so obsessed with our pictures two and a half years later! She was such an amazing hype woman and made me feel so confident!!

We absolutely loved every part of working with Rylee. She felt like a friend from the moment we started communicating and was so patient with us while our plans changed multiple times due to pandemic restrictions.   On the day of, Rylee helped keep me calm and composed. She was such an amazing hype woman and made me feel so confident. The weather on our wedding day wasn’t typical for Alaskan summers and it ended up reaching the mid-80s°. Rylee still went above and beyond to get the perfect shots, despite the heat and the massive mosquitoes that were flying around. She made sure that we were relaxed and comfortable in between our private vows, our small ceremony with family and friends, and then our small after-party.  When we received our photos, we were stunned by how perfectly Rylee had captured our day. We are still so obsessed with our pictures two and a half years later.

Nicole & Taylor

More than just a Photographer – Rylee has documented all of our special memories and we’d never imagine trusting someone more than her!

Rylee is incredible + has become more than just a photographer for us but a friend. She took couple photos for us when we were dating, our engagement shoot, our wedding, and an adventure wedding shoot in the North Cascades. Her work is not only impeccable and perfectly matched our style, but we had fun + felt comfortable in what would otherwise be somewhat awkward (not usually a photo gal personally). She was soooo fast to deliver our photos and took so much attention to details. I can’t recommend her enough

Madison & Eli

From the North Cascades, Brewery celebrations and dancing the night away – everything was perfection!

Rylee is one of the most phenomenal photographers out there, not only was she a great photographer she is a great friend! My entire family loved her and to this day talk about how amazing she is! Our pictures came out better than I could have ever imagined!

Autumn & Keri

I AM SO HAPPY WITH OUR WEDDING PHOTOS!! I will remember this day forever. I would 10000/10 recommend.

Not only did Rylee take amazing photos for our Elopement she helped us throughout the entire day and leading up to our wedding. She found an amazing location for us as well as suggested us where to stay and everything we would need(such as permits and marriage license info). I was completely stress free for our whole wedding planning.  I would say me and my husband are and can be a bit awkward when it comes to taking photos but we both felt so incredibly comfortable with Rylee. She was very flexible and easy going and made the whole experience an absolute blast. I will remember this day forever. I would 10000/10 recommend.

Kimberly & Dominic

A True PNW Elopement Day! We adventured all across the Olympics from Sunrise to sunset. Taking in all the beutiful seneries of Hurricane Ridge, Lake Cresent & Rialto Beach!

Rylee made our adventure elopement a dream come true! She helped us plan our elopement, communicated with us frequently as the big day approached, and was the best hype girl on our wedding day. We had a blast and our wedding pictures are truly incredible—we will treasure them forever.

Adam & Andrianna

I truly don’t think I could have picked a better photographer.! She was so kind, real and down to earth. Super quick to respond and easy to communicate with!

I’m not even sure where to start but working with Rylee was an amazing experience. When we were planning our elopement in Washington we wanted to surround ourselves/work with people who were going to make it an amazing day for us and that’s exactly what happened with Rylee. She was so kind, real and down to earth. Super quick to respond and easy to communicate with. She had tons of recommendations for everything from flowers to location. We’d obviously never done something like this before but she made the process so easy. And then the pictures/video were just absolutely beautiful. I was obsessed! Iv always struggled with self love but I felt like I looked beautiful and those pictures mean a lot to my now husband and I. Ive received so many compliments on them from all our friends and family as well! The photographer was the single most important part for me other than actually getting married of course because it’s what we will have to look at to remember our day by and I truly don’t think I could have picked a better photographer. Thanks so much Rylee!

Brittany & Alex

Most Epic California intimate Wedding – From a Dawn first look to Dancing the night away under the stars!

My wife and I hired Rylee for our wedding last year and could not be happier with the end result. I had balked at the cost of most of the photographers my wife was looking at for our small Covid wedding and while Rylee was in the same ballpark the results were more than worth it.   She did an amazing job with our dawn first look, coached us through it with ease and set up some simply stunning and natural photos that captured the moment and all the emotions beautifully.   She’s also easygoing and fun so with all the nerves and goings on of the big day working with her was a breeze. Could not recommend more.

My most popular option is the All-Day 12-hour package, but we can customize based on the overall vibe of your day and of course budget. I offer a complimentary elopement consult to discuss coverage options tailored to your vision and needs. With various packages designed to suit different types of elopement days, I’ll help you choose the best fit.

While I’ve worked with couples in planning elopements ranging from 18 months out to just a few weeks away, most couples secure their date around 6-12 months in advance. As I limit my bookings to ensure personalized attention to each couple who works with me, reaching out sooner rather than later ensures I have availability around your date.

You can expect a sneak peek of your photos within 48 hours of your elopement – sometimes even sooner (I’d never hold out on you;)! For your full elopement gallery you can typically expect it within 8-12 weeks. I believe editing is a crucial part of the magic behind each photo, so I dedicate ample time to ensure every image is perfected.

Once editing is complete, your final gallery of photos will be accessible through a private online gallery link. From there, you can download the high-resolution images as many times as you’d like and easily share them with friends and family.

The number of photos varies depending on several factors, including coverage duration, guest involvement, weather, and location. Rather than having a minimum or maximum limits, I prioritize curating galleries filled with only the best images. I am a huge believer in quality over quantity, though you can expect an abundance of stunning moments captured throughout your day. However, for all-day and multi-day elopements, you can typically expect between 500-1200 images, while smaller elopement days may have approximately 200-500 images.

To reserve your date, all we need is your chosen date and general location. I’ll then send over an electronic contract and invoice for a non-refundable retainer payment, equal to 50% of your package. The remaining balance will be due one month prior to your elopement.

Hiring the right person to document your day isn’t to be taken lightly. The couples who book me; value experience over things, they want stunning, timeless, adventure/nature-inspired images, they’re not afraid to get a little wild and are ready to give the day that they get married – everything that it deserves and is truly focused on what matters…them/their love/their story/their relationship.

IF THAT SOUNDS LIKE YOU – LETS FUCKING DO THIS!
