invest in an  adventure of a lifetime 

You want an elopement that feels like an experiencenot a schedule.

So you’ve decided to ditch the idea of a traditional wedding and elope 

You value photography as art, but you don’t want to plan every detail, stress over timelines, or worry about logistics from sunrise to sunset.

By now, you’ve probably realized that eloping in Colorado isn’t as simple as picking a pretty spot and showing up...

There are permits, locations, timing, weather, light, and a lot of small details that all play a role.

But here’s the thing...

You don’t have to do any of that alone.

that's where i come in.

Madison  |  Elopement Photographer & Travel Nurse

Whether your day looks like hiking into the mountains at sunrise, or personal vows by the lake...

You’re investing in more than just photos — you’re creating an unforgettable experience and imagery that will tell your story for years to come.

Drawn to connection & always down for the adventure

Don’t just take my word for it —
here’s what couples have to say:


It means having someone who meets you where you are, guides you through every step of the process, and makes the entire experience feel easy, intentional, and stress-free from start to finish.

Booking an adventure elopement with me means you’re choosing more than just beautiful photos

here's what that looks like: 

→ Guidance choosing the perfect location for your vision

→ Assistance with navigating permits and protected areas

→ A custom timeline built around light, weather, and how you want the day to feel

→ A super cool travel guide + friend (I may be a little bias)

→ Candid posing direction that feels natural & true to you

→ Visual storytelling focused on emotion, movement, and all the details in between

- High-resolution imagery that reflects how the day felt — not just how it looked

your job

enjoy the adventure.
i'll take care of the rest. 

you won't find many photographers who approach elopements the way that i do.

This means your elopement becomes more than a photoshoot  in a beautiful place. It becomes an experience fully lived in — one that feels authentic to you and your partner from beginning to end.

I’ll guide you through every step: choosing locations, building a timeline that flows naturally, and capturing all the details in between — the muddy boots, windswept hair, emotional vows, quiet glances, and the moments you didn’t even realize were happening.

You get to slow down, be fully present with each other, and step into an adventure that feels effortless, intentional, and undeniably yours.

why?

Because I don’t just document the experience — I help create it.

Are you ready for your adventure?
I’ve been waiting for you to take the first step!

contact me

Fill out my inquiry form and tell me all about what you’re envisioning. You don’t need every detail figured out yet - whether you already have a location in mind or have no idea where to begin, I’ll help guide you every step of the way!

reserve your date

Once we connect and make sure we’re the perfect fit, we’ll lock in your date and officially make this adventure yours. From there, the fun really begins!

PLAN AN EPIC ADVENTURE

I’ll guide you through the entire planning process - locations, timelines, permits, lodging, activity ideas, and all the little details in between. Together, we’ll create a day that feels intentional, relaxed, and completely authentic to you two.

ELOPEMENT DAY

This is where you get to fully let go and live in the moment. Soak in the views, chase the adventure, laugh until your cheeks hurt, and be fully present with your person while I document it all exactly as it felt. I’ll take care of the details so your only job is to enjoy every second of it.

don't know where to even begin? 

You do not need to have everything planned before reaching out

Most couples inquire before they have a location, timeline, or any real plan figured out - and that’s exactly where I come in.

From the moment you book, I’ll guide you through the entire process and help create an elopement day that feels intentional, relaxed, adventurous, and completely authentic to you.

You focus on being present and soaking in the experience.

I’ll take care of the rest! 

Not at all. Most couples reach out before they have a location, timeline, or full plan figured out - and honestly, that’s exactly how this process is meant to begin. You don’t need to have all the answers before reaching out. Whether you have a full Pinterest board ready to go or just know you want something adventurous and intentional but don’t know where to begin, I’ll help guide you throughout the journey! From choosing the perfect location to building a timeline that feels natural and relaxed, I’m here to make the planning process feel exciting instead of overwhelming.

Go Back

Do we need to have everything planned before we inquire?

I promise you are not alone - almost every couple says this before their elopement. My approach is centered around movement, connection, and creating space for candid moments to unfold naturally. Instead of stiff posing, I’ll guide you through prompts and interactions that help you focus on each other rather than the camera. The result is candid imagery that tells your story in a way that is authentic to you and your partner. Think less “perfect posing” and more running through wildflowers, laughing together on the trail, windswept hair, muddy boots, and moments that actually feel lived in. Oh yeah - and having a BLAST while at it!! 

Go Back

We’re awkward in front of the camera… what if we don’t know how to pose?

Colorado weather loves to keep things interesting, but you don’t need to stress about it! Part of my job is helping prepare for the unexpected so your day still feels intentional and relaxed no matter what happens. I always help build flexible timelines, backup plans, and alternative location options when needed. Some of the most meaningful and beautiful moments actually happen in the middle of unpredictable weather - fog rolling through the mountains, wind catching your dress, or rain creating the dreamiest atmosphere. No matter what the forecast looks like, I’ll help guide you through it so you can stay fully present and enjoy the experience!

Go Back

What happens if the weather changes?

Absolutely! I’m not just showing up with a camera on your elopement day - I’m helping create the entire experience alongside you. From personalized location recommendations and permit guidance to activity ideas, lodging recommendations, and timeline creation, I’ll help guide every step of the planning process! My goal is to make your elopement feel stress-free and fully tailored to the two of you so you can spend less time stressing over logistics and more time actually soaking in the experience together.

Go Back

Will you help us plan everything?

Always! Your elopement should feel authentic to you, whether that means exchanging vows privately on a mountaintop, bringing along your closest family members, or including your dogs in the adventure. There’s no “right” way to elope. Some couples want a completely private experience while others want to celebrate with a small group before heading off for an adventure together afterward. Whatever your vision looks like, we’ll intentionally build a day that reflects your relationship and what matters most to you.

Go Back

Can we include family, friends, or pets in our elopement?
