what does it mean to
ELOPE?
E-lope : verb
Taking your story into your own hands, vowing yourselves to one another in the best way possible with intention and adventure intertwined. Including only those whom you'd like. Also known as self-empowerment and doing what you want to do and not what others say to do.
It's me, Mataya (Muh-Tay-Uh).
After shooting close to 100 traditional weddings, I have pivoted into smaller and intimate wedding photography because I truly believe your wedding day should be about you and no one else. With my precise planning and organization, I vow to mix my desire for adventure and servitude to ensure that your elopement experience is only the best.
I believe your wedding day, whether that be tucked away in the Rocky Mountains or riverside in the Smokies National Park, on the banks of Acadia or an adventurous Alabama Elopement, it should be intimately tailored and authentic to who you are as a couple. Ill be here every step of the way helping narrow down the perfect locations, offer the best shops for coffee, to tell the corniest jokes, and to be your personal cheerleader captain when you need it. To me you are more than a client, your a friend.
Hey adventurer
Lets make your wedding dreams an elopement reality
4 steps to your adventure of a lifetime
After your initial inquiry, you'll receive the steps to book your phone call where we can chat about your dream elopement day where anything is possible. This gives you time to answer any burning questions and get the creative ideas flowing. Nothing is off the table!
Once you book, your contract is signed and deposit is paid, you fill out the questionnaire that will help me to provide you with options for your elopement day. I will scout out the locations for your ceremony, offer tons of planning tips, and get you ready for your dream elopement day.
You pack your attire, travel to your destination, and sit back and enjoy your epic wedding day. You really get to enjoy that space and time together with just you two or your closest family and friends not worrying about photo lists and crazy expectations.
Once your elopement wedding has come to pass, you can rest assured your memories will be captured and delivered to you so you can relive the day over and over again. Ill never have to wonder what if because eloping with your partner was the best decision you had ever made.
I'm ready to tell my story, my way.
