A day that feels like you.
A local guide, wherever your adventure begins
I grew up in the Shenandoah Valley and still call it home. I know these mountains well, from iconic overlooks to hidden corners, and I love helping couples discover locations that feel true to them. And if you're planning to celebrate somewhere beyond Virginia, I'd be honored to travel there with you, too.
A day designed around what matters most
Your wedding day should feel like your own.
Whether that means hiking to a quiet overlook or celebrating somewhere significant to you, I'll help you plan and capture the day of your dreams, blending thoughtful guidance with plenty of space for you to simply be together.
However you choose to celebrate, your elopement deserves the same care, intention, and artistry as a traditional wedding. Every collection includes:
→ A customized photography experience built around your vision
→ Thoughtful planning and guidance to help you feel prepared every step of the way
→ Help coordinating permits, fees, and location-specific requirements
→ Flexible coverage designed around your celebration, from intimate ceremonies to multi-day adventures
→ Artfully edited imagery that preserves not just how your day looked, but how it felt
→ Heirloom album and fine art options designed to be enjoyed for generations
INTIMATE WEDDING & ELOPEMENT STORIES
An Intentional Experience, From Start to Finish
1. The connection call
A thoughtful conversation focused on your story, your vision for your day, and the experience you want to create. I'll guide the discussion with a few intentional questions, while leaving plenty of room for yours.
2. Book your date
If it feels like the right fit, you'll sign your contract and submit your retainer to officially reserve your date.
3. Plan the details
Together, we'll thoughtfully plan your day, from location ideas and timeline guidance to the moments that matter most. My goal is to help you feel prepared, relaxed, and free to enjoy the experience.
4. Gallery delivery
A few days after your elopement, I'll send a preview of some favorite images to relive while I carefully craft the rest of your gallery. Full elopement galleries are delivered within four weeks, unless otherwise noted.
