where to elope
Let's capture your love story
You spend a relaxing morning cooking breakfast together excited about the day ahead instead of nervous about the details… because today you’re not putting on a show.
You are spending the day celebrating your love by adventuring in the mountains with your best friend.
Enjoying intimate moments together, laughing together, and enjoying the outdoors.
After a day of exploring and enjoying amazing views, you make your promises to each other at sunset and spend the evening soaking in a hot spring under the stars with your new spouse.
Sound like your dream wedding day? You’re in the right place! Meet your California elopement photographer below

Meet your California Elopement Photographer
...Justin smiled across at his bride, Laura. As they share vows, both holding back sobs and taking turns wiping tears from the other's cheek, my eyes are misty behind the camera too.
The shared emotions.
The real, deep love.
The big, goofy smile during a first look.
The tears forming during the vow exchange.
The celebration and immense happiness when you're officially married!!!
This is why I do what I do. Getting to be a part of one of the most important and intimate days in your life, I do not take lightly. During every elopement I find myself sharing in the joy with my couples, laughing and crying right alongside you.
I've been a professional photographer for 7 years, ranging from landscape and travel photography to portraits. When I started photographing adventure elopements, I realized I found what I was meant to do. This is why I became a California elopement photographer, and why I've created an experience for my couples so that I am with you every step of the way, from planning your dream elopement day all the way to sending you your final gallery full of memories you'll cherish forever.

“I have a big collection of photos where I look like a clumsy and awkward scarecrow. I always freeze when a camera turns my way. Working with Kasey for our wedding was an amazing experience, she had us moving around and interacting, we didn't feel awkward and the photos are amazing. We were astonished - who knew we were models in the rough!”
-Suzy & Paul

You deserve a wedding as epic as your love
Your relationship deserves to be celebrated in a way that feels like you.
So...
Imagine what the best day you could dream up with your partner would look like.
Consider this your permission slip to dicth the norm and get married the way you want to
As a California elopement photographer, I meet lots of couples who tell me they don't want to throw a huge party, they don't want to spend the day trying to please everyone but themselves, or spend months stressing over wedding details. My response is that this is completely okay. In fact, it's more than okay - it's awesome! It's your wedding day celebrating your relationship, and it should look and feel however you want. What ignites your soul? What makes you feel excited? What is special to you and your partner? These are the questions I want you to ask yourself when thinking about your elopement. You shouldn't have to worry about what anybody else thinks, but you.
