he STOOD WITH TEARS IN HIS EYES AS she WALKED TOWARDS HIM IN HER FLOWING DRESS underneath the redwood trees...
The day began just as the sun was beginning to peak through the redwood canopy surrounding their cabin as J & H made coffee together.
After enjoying a slow morning, they said their vows under the majestic redwoods just the 2 of them. As the sun began to set they headed to the coast to roast s'mores over a campfire, and sat on the beach soaking in their day of laughter and tears as a newly married couple with the most magical view.
This is what makes my job truly unmatched.
I pour my heart and expertise into creating meaningful experiences - the most special day that you'll look back on for years to come.

Looking for inspiration? I've got you covered
Jedediah Smith SP
Make coffee together at your cabin in the woods, and start your day slowly getting ready together. Venture into the towering redwood groves to say your vows to each other, and spend the afternoon relaxing at a brewery. Head up the coast to cut your cake and soak in your first sunset as a married couple.
Pro tip: You can have an epic 2-day elopement adventure and head into Oregon the next day (a short drive up the coast!) for more epic PNW coastal views. Think sunset picnic or star photos!
Elope in
Redwoods NP
Start your day getting ready separately at your Airbnb, then have a romantic first look outside in the garden. Head into the redwoods park to explore trails of redwoods and say your vows to each other. Explore the California coastline before heading back to your Airbnb for a bonfire with s'mores.
Elope in
SANTA CRUZ REDWOODS
Start your day writing your vows together at your Airbnb, before venturing into the woods for your ceremony. Spend the rest of the morning adventuring around the majestic redwoods, and spend the afternoon celebrating at a local brewery. Head to the coast to spend the evening with s'mores over a campfire, and end your elopement day with a first dance on the beach in the moonlight.

"It was such a joy to work with Kasey and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an enthusiastic, wonderful-to-work-with, talented photographer! She beautifully captured my partner and I's intimate wedding and we couldn't be more happy and thankful for having her be our photographer! She gave very helpful direction with posing and shots and made us feel so comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better experience; thank you so much Kasey!"

Frequently Asked Questions
I recommend around 6-12 months before you want to elope! This gives us plenty of time to plan your dream day and make sure you get to experience everything you're envisioning for your elopement.
I send you a sneak peek of 15-30 images within 48 hours of your elopement! This way you can share your news with family and friends immediately. You will receive the full gallery within a month of your elopement day.
Absolutely! If the location permits, we can plan for and accommodate up to 10 guests. However, keep in mind that as the guest count increases, logistical challenges like parking, seating, and bathroom availability can limit your location options.
I guarantee a minimum of 50 photos per hour of coverage, but I usually give much more than that! It all depends on the activities throughout your day.
Absolutely! I will photograph your elopement anywhere in the world.
This depends on your location, but in California you are required to have an officiant for a legal marriage. You can have a friend or family member get ordained and officiate your ceremony, or hire an officiant. If he's available, my partner can also officiate for you!
For most locations including national parks, state parks and BLM land a permit is required. I will contact the parks for you and help you acquire the correct permits so you don't need to stress about them.
