It all started when…

After shooting my first and final million dollar wedding, I realized that a large wedding like that didn’t bring out the best in me. Once I photographed a mini wedding that was all about the two in love, I felt that I found home. Just know that your elopement is just as important as a full wedding day. An elopement can range from 2-10 hours and overnight. They are with love, adventure and joy with the story of two people in love. Not many people think of an elopement as an adventure. Some think it is an cheap choice at a court house or Las Vegas hitching kinda feel. Not with me. An elopement is a full day focusing on YOU and YOUR story! It is a sweet, intimate way to have an epic, one of a kind experience with or without a handful of loved ones by your side as you promise your forever love to one another.

With me, it is a way to focus on what matters without stressful planning. I will do the planning for you and make it simply sweet without the all the time you would spend on finding the best vendors that fit you and your budget. Don't get me wrong. I love weddings that are filled with such intricate detail but at the same time I have witnessed so many couples that are so stressed about pleasing everyone else that they don’t have enough time with their new husband or wife. After all, a wedding is about your love not about aesthetic items. Let me handle your bouquet, cake, hotel and location bookings. You will be fully involved of course but I will make it simple for you by narrowing down the vendors that I feel fit your elopement vision.

Off roading may be necessary.

One of the best things about an elopement is the variety of extreme, epic locations like the Sequoia National park with the gentle giants, the stunning overlook of Horseshoe Bend and even Banff, Canada with it’s high peak lurking in the background. You should feel free in love on the best day of your life and I would be honored to help you get there.

Let’s have a virtual or in person date where I can hear your love story and we can get all giddy about your wedding dream details.
