i’m the person behind the camera
I’ll guide you through the entire process
Photography is more than just taking pictures-- It's about capturing the moment that you can fall in love with over and over again forever. I've been guiding my clients with natural prompts and poses to organically capture the love and emotions. My goal is to give you the best experience to hold and cherish for a lifetime.
01. SHOULD YOU ELOPE?
However your love is celebrated ultimately comes down to you. There are definitely pros to eloping such as cost, minimizing stress, having the very few close loved ones, etc. I always encourage to truly visualize how you want to feel at the end of the day. If you are happy with the decision you made, you've made the right choice.
02. PICK A LOCATION
With so many beautiful locations around the world, it can be a challenge to decide on one. There are a lot of things to factor! I always recommend choosing a location that is true reflective to your relationship.
03. SEASON & TIMELINE
Busy season can extend the album delivery up to 2 weeks. I prioritize quality and would never deliver "rushed" photos. Even after our session, I am intentional with my work to bring the depth and emotion in each photo.
04. GUEST LIST
We want to keep guest lists for elopements at a reasonable number. It is a small and intimate celebration with those closest to you. However, if we are celebrating a wedding, the guest list is definitely within your means!
05. LOGISTICS
I'll have you fill out a questionnaire that will help organize the timeline for the day and consider the logistics. We'll also hop on a call to discuss those fine details to help the day run smoothly and what to expect!
06. LEGAL DETAILS
From traveling, I've learned every state is different in its own way. It's like it's own culture sometimes! Even if we're in the same country. Please inquire with your local state regarding weddings/elopements.
FAQ
Are the travel expenses included in your packages or covered additionally?
They are covered additionally - don't worry, we'll talk about travel together! Travel is customized based on fares that may be applied, distance, etc.
What if we want something more extreme for our elopement?
I will be more than happy to go on this adventure with you! I always encourage incorporating whatever is unique and reflective of your relationship in our sessions.
We want to include our dog into the elopement ceremony and photos, is that okay?
OMG YES!!!!!!! All furry friends are welcomed. I won't even be upset if I get tackled. My dog might be jealous when I come home though.
How long does it take to recieve the photos after the elopement and how will those be delivered?
During slow season, photos can take up to 6-8 weeks for delivery. During busy season, it can take up to 10 weeks. I don't deliver "rushed" photos because it will be apparent. Think of it like putting on your makeup in the morning. How you look when you have 5 mins vs. 20 mins. You're able to pay attention to the details when you allot time to produce the best work.
Do we need a wedding officiant for our elopement? If yes, can you recommend one?
I think it adds to the experience! You can have someone you are close with to become your officiant or I can provide local recommendations!
What if we legally don’t get married on our elopement day?
That's totally okay! If you had a courthouse wedding or eloping as an anniversary or vow renewal, we can still go on this adventure together.
