You’re Not Here for the Spotlight.

Let’s be real. If you wanted a stage and a spotlight, you’d be in a fancy venue somewhere right now.

But you’re here. Which tells me you’re more about deep breaths and quiet moments than timelines and toasts.

This is your permission slip to skip the chaos and do something that actually feels like you.

No rules. No pressure. Just the two of you, out in the wild, making a promise in your own way.
(And yeah, snacks are encouraged.)

You’re Here for the Moment.

Not the Pinterest version. Not the perfect dress fluff or the fake kiss pose.

You’re here for the real stuff. The “holy crap, we’re really doing this” kind of feeling.

Dirt on your boots. Cold fingers. Big laughs. Maybe a happy tear or two.

The kind of day that turns into the story you’ll tell a hundred times, and love it every single time.

  • “They think outside the box and work so seamlessly together, constantly bouncing ideas and energy off one another to capture the perfect shots. You can tell they genuinely love what they do, and that passion shows in every moment they create.”
    Billy and Ashley
    Sedona, Arizona
  • “It never felt like we were being photographed.
    It felt like we were living our elopement.”
    Bill and Traci
    North Cascades, Washington

Your Guide
Your Photographer
Your People

I’ve photographed elopements across 4 continents and spent years hiking some of the wildest places in the world, including completing the Triple Crown: the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Continental Divide Trail.

So if you’re dreaming about saying your vows somewhere a little harder to reach, you’re in good company.

I’m here for the sunrise alarms, dirt-covered boots, windy cliffs, desert roads, alpine lakes, and the moments that happen when you strip away all the pressure and just focus on each other.

Part photographer, part guide, part calm presence when things get chaotic, I help couples create adventure elopements that feel effortless, meaningful, and true to who they are.

From location ideas and permit logistics to weather backups and timeline planning, I’ve got you covered so you can stay present and actually enjoy your day.

Because your wedding shouldn’t feel like a production.
It should feel like the best adventure you’ve ever taken together.

Our couples didn’t follow a playbook. They made their own. These photos are just a peek at what can happen when you trust your gut, skip the fluff, and build a day around what feels good.

Stories from the wild

Thinking about eloping, but not sure where to start?

Planning an adventure elopement can feel simple at first, but once you get into locations, permits, timelines, and everything that goes into making the day actually flow, it can start to feel like a lot. The truth is, there isn’t one “right” way to do this. There’s only the way that fits you.

Adventure Elopement FAQ

Honestly, almost anywhere. National parks, deserts, mountains, coastlines, or even somewhere international. I help couples narrow this down based on scenery, season, accessibility, and how you want your day to feel. If you’re stuck, start with my location guides to Arizona, Sedona, and Colorado.

Most couples start planning anywhere from 3 to 12 months out depending on the location. Permits, travel, and popular seasons can affect timing. If you’re unsure, I break this down more in my adventure elopement planning guide.

Yes. A lot of couples include a small group of family or friends. It just depends on the location and what kind of experience you want. Some places have restrictions, especially in national parks, so this is something I help you navigate.

Totally fine. You don’t have to backpack into the wilderness to have an incredible elopement. I help match you with locations that fit your comfort level, whether that’s a short walk or something more adventurous. If you are into backpacking, I also guide couples through planning those kinds of elopements too.

We roll with it or pivot if needed. Some of the best photos and experiences happen in unexpected weather, but I also build backup plans so you’re never stuck stressing about it.

An adventure elopement is a wedding day built around what actually feels meaningful to you instead of a timeline full of expectations. That could look like hiking at sunrise, exploring somewhere remote, or just choosing a place that feels like you. If you’re new to the idea, you can read more in my full guide on how to plan an adventure elopement.

Yes. This is a huge part of what I do. I help with location ideas, permits, timelines, backup plans, and making sure everything actually flows naturally. You’re not just showing up and hoping for the best.
