The adventure of elopement photography
Planning a wedding is a painnnnn, I get it. Talking with all the vendors, having the date nailed down and then your dream venue isn't available. Not to mention the family that you haven't seen in years. It's feeling more like a family reunion than a wedding at this point.
Can I tell you something? You don't have to settle for what the world and everyone else says you have to do. Your wedding day should be about celebrating your unique love, not what food everyone would like to eat. Want to know another secret? Eloping in Colorado or Tennesee can still include those wedding details but without all the glitz and glam, and with a helping hand to guide you along the way. Adventure elopements include things that you absolutely love as a couple, after all, the day should be all about the two of you!
is this you?
let's do this!
okay, i'm in!
epic adventure this way
After you've left your email and my inbox dings, I will get back with you within 48 business hours. We will set up a good day to have a phone call to discuss all the details so far that you've dreamt up for your elopement or destination wedding.
How it works:
After our phone call if you've said yes to forever, then I will send over all contract and deposit information, I require $500 to reserve your elopement for you two. If a date is not determined yet, we will still sign a contract and then revise when that date is set in stone.
This is where the fun begins. I will spend roughly 10-20 hours on you as a couple getting to know you extensively, sending over location ideas, activities to choose from and researching the area. We nail down the vision you have for your perfect elopement wedding day. I will work on securing any photography permits as well as help with vendor communication (if any) as well.
You and your partner start on the boldest path to happiness you can take. WOOOHOOO!
Get excited while I edit the most amazing gallery from your elopement day. When available, I will send sneak peeks for you and your partner to enjoy or share with family and friends. The full gallery is sent within 7 weeks of your wedding day.
