Eloping on Your Own Terms: Why I’m the Perfect Fit for Non-Traditional Couples

If you’re dreaming of an elopement that looks nothing like the cookie-cutter wedding playbook, you’re in the right place. I’m here for the couples who want to throw out the rulebook, embrace adventure, and make their day truly their own.

I believe your elopement shouldn’t just be about pretty photos—it should be about the experience. Whether that means hiking to a hidden overlook, popping champagne by a mountain lake, or wandering through a city street with no plan but to see where the day takes us, I’m here for it all. I thrive on spontaneity, genuine emotion, and documenting love stories that feel real—not staged.

Documentary Photography, With a Twist

My photography style is rooted in documentary photography, which means I’m not just posing you into stiff smiles. Instead, I’m capturing what actually happens—those fleeting glances, belly laughs, and the way your hand naturally finds your partner’s. It’s storytelling through images, and it allows your gallery to feel authentic to who you are as a couple.

But here’s where I make it uniquely mine: I incorporate games into your photoshoot. Think of it like charades—playful, interactive, and guaranteed to bring out your silly side. Not only does this keep you engaged, but it also creates space for genuine connection and laughter. If you’re feeling a little nervous in front of the camera, I can even design your shoot around a casual drinking game (sometimes a glass of wine or a craft beer is the perfect icebreaker).

Tailored to Who You Are

No two couples are the same, which is why I never force my clients into a one-size-fits-all box. Before your elopement, we’ll sit down for a one-on-one planning session where we can map out your day. Want to break every traditional rule? Let’s do it. Want to mix just a few traditions with a lot of adventure? Perfect. I’ll adapt to you, not the other way around.

Every couple also receives my Elopement Guide, packed with tips, tricks, and ideas to help you design a day that feels effortless and true to you. And because I know waiting weeks for photos can feel like torture, I give all my couples instant gratification—a mini film photo album of key moments from the day, delivered right away. It’s a tangible way to relive the magic before your full gallery arrives.

Let’s Create a Day That’s 100% Yours

Elopements aren’t about checking boxes—they’re about celebrating your love in a way that feels right to you. If my pricing or packages don’t quite match what you’re envisioning, don’t worry. I’m always happy to sit down and customize something that fits your day perfectly.

So, if you’re adventurous, a little wild, and ready to elope by your own rules, let’s start planning your story. Because this isn’t just a photoshoot—it’s an experience you’ll never forget.
