Engagement Sessions
The Experience
An elopement isn't a shortened wedding day.
An elopement isn't a lesser version of a wedding
It's a deliberately chosen one.
When you decide to elope, you're choosing intimacy, intention, and freedom and that deserves more than a two-hour coverage window.
I specialize in full-day elopements designed around experience. Not just the ceremony, but the entire story of your day. From the quiet morning, to the drive to your location with the wind in your hair, the dinner afterward, and all the in-between moments that make it yours.
Planning With Purpose
Once you're officially booked with a signed contract and retainer, we begin building your day together.
I help you shape the vision from the ground up. I help you research meaningful locations, suggest vendors that align with your aesthetic, help plan activities that feel natural to you, and structuring a timeline that allows the day to unfold without rush.
Whether that means hiking to a secluded overlook, renting a historic space, planning a private chef dinner, or building in time to simply explore. We create a day that feels lived in, not staged.
You won't be handed a generic template
Your elopement is designed intentionally around you!
The Day itself
On your elopement day, you won't be watching the clock.
Full-day coverage means space. Space for light to shift, for plans to breathe, for real moments to happen naturally. I guide when needed and step back when it matters most.
You get the freedom of an intimate day without sacrificing documentation.
Every part of it is preserved. not just the vows, but the experience!

Start Planning
By the time you book with me I have already started planning your elopement day based on everything you've already told me about you as a couple and what you are looking for.
We will sit down and go over everything and I will show you my plan and we will begin the process of creating your whole elopement day!

Finalizing Details
We will work together to finalize all details. If you have any other vendors that will be a part of your elopement, you will book them yourself, but I can help you find the best vendors.
We will go over final timeline details and create a full, written timeline, that we all feel comfortable with.

Photo Delivery
If I am able to, I will send out a couple sneak peeks for you to get excited over your elopement photos.
Within 90 days, your elopement gallery will be ready and we will be so excited to share it with you! You will be able to download all the images right from the gallery. If you ordered an album or wall art, we will get together to discuss which images you would like and the design that speaks to you.
