Elopements & Intimate Weddings
the ultimate adventure
So you're getting married. Congrats!
Stressing about planning a wedding with all the family drama, challenges with who to invite, paying for things by the guest-count, dancing in front of everyone even though you literally haven't danced like that since prom and those aren't the memories you want in your head during your big day?
Your Day.
Your Way.
There's an old term that's getting redefined these days. Eloping. It no longer means running away in secret to tie the knot in Vegas. Don't get me wrong, if that's your style, you can totally do that. But it doesn't have to be that.
And that's the beauty of it. Modern elopements give you a way to create your big day so it actually feels the way it should - comfortable, exciting and full of love - instead of being pressured to perform and appease the guests.
And that's where I come in.
More than just your photographer, I'm your cheerleader, your confidant, your support system.
It takes GUTS to ditch the traditional path, and I'm here to empower you to create the best possible version of your wedding day!
Whether that's deep in the woods of a national park, at a river-side campsite, near a black-sand beach or on a mountain with the clouds beneath you, I am HERE for the adventure!
Sound like your kind of thing?
The best thing about eloping is that it can be whatever you want it to be! I truly believe that eloping is for anyone who isn't overly-excited about the though of a big wedding. You can step away from the traditions and expectations and instead make your day just that - yours.
✔ Live for adventure and want your big day to reflect that
✔ Value experiences over physical things
✔ Know that love is LOVE and support the LGBTQIA+ community
✔ Aren't afraid to roll with the punches and adapt to whatever life throws at you
✔ Believe that the best things in life are worth fighting for
✔ Have a deep appreciation for landscapes and want to make sure their beauty is protected
✔ Want candid, docu-style photos to help you remember your big adventure clearly
THEN I AM ABSOLUTELY YOUR GAL!
WHAT YOU'LL GET
80 page elopement guide
My exclusive elopement guide for booked couples that helps take the overwhelm out of planning, so you can focus on your excitement.
LGBTQIA representation
Sup, my name is Allison and I'm bisexual. And I'm here for EVERY couple, especially those who have a harder time finding support in the world.
Backcountry knowledge
Being raised in the PNW, I have over 500 miles of hiking under my belt. Backcountry safety, 10 essentials & leave no trace principles are all at the root of what I do.
All the recommendations
My AirBnb is full of unique stays, my AllTrails account full of trails I've hiked, my Google Maps full of stellar florists. Looking for something spectacular? I got you covered.
Custom timeline crafting
Hate building itineraries? You're in luck because that kind of thing is EXACTLY my jam. Let me take that off of your to-do list.
40+ images per hour
I focus on quality over quantity. But even then, most of my 8-hour final delivered albums are over 400 images. You're guaranteed at least 40 expertly-edited final images per hour to remember your day with.
Freeze-frame videos
Still photography can capture so much, but sometimes we just want a little extra for those big moments. I shoot at a high-burst to create GIFs of your first look, vow reactions, your first kiss, or other special moments.
48-hour sneak peeks
Believe it or not, I'm just as obsessed with your day as you are. I can't help myself from starting that editing process when I get home at midnight after your day. You'll have 3-5 final images before the high of your day has even faded.
Delivery within 1 month
A private online gallery for you to choose your favorite photos and share with all your friends and family.
A built-in cheerleader to empower you
Choosing to elope is a big fucking deal. Doing things outside the norm tends to come with some push-back. When you need someone in your corner to help communicate your choice to your family, ensure your friends that they can still be involved, or just need a break from planning all the details, I'm always just a phone call away!

The Process
Ready to take the leap and start planning your dream elopement? Here's how we do it.
1. Book a Consultation
If you haven't already, reach out to inquire about your date through my contact form, or just book a free consultation.
Don't let the lingo fool ya. We're just going to get to know each other and I'll answer any questions you have. There's no pressure to book.
2. Find the Best Package
Once we chat and feel like we're a good fit, it's time to figure out what kind of coverage will best tell your story.
If you're still in the beginning phases of planning and haven't narrowed down a place or don't know how much coverage you'll need, don't worry! We can always figure out the details later.
3. Sign on the Dotted Line
This is the boring part. BUT it's also the part that makes sure we're both on the same page about expectations.
Once the contract is signed and your retainer is paid, you're officially booked! Time to break out the bubbly!
4. Plan Your Adventure
Now comes the reason why you're here in the first place. Time to plan your ultimate adventure!
I have resources to help you along the planning process, but in the beginning let your imagination run wild. Anything is possible. What do you want your day to be?
Have questions?
Of course you do, and I'm here to answer them all! Here are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions below. If you have a more specific question, feel free to book a consultation call or send me a note via my contact form. I'm here to give you all the information you need!
FAQ
How do we even start planning an elopement?
GREAT question! With so many details to juggle it can feel overwhelming, but there's four big things you can focus on. The when, where, who, and how. Let's chat!
How long does it take to get our pictures?
I deliver 3-5 sneak peek photos within 48 hours of your wedding day and full album delivery takes 4 weeks.
Where can I see the pricing for all of your packages?
Let's book a consultation call! There's never any pressure to book on these calls, but with how many different variations and factors that go into an elopement, getting to know what exactly you're looking for will help me filter out irrelevant information and give you the info you need.
How many pictures will we receive?
All elopement packages guarantee a minimum of 30 images per hour of coverage. That means you'll be getting HUNDREDS of photos of your big day!
We don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?
Most of my couples have said the exact same thing, and of course that's okay! We'll get to know each other so you can feel more at ease, and I'll provide all the prompts to get you looking your best! Photos look the best when you're genuinely in the moment, so just forget about me and y'all will be BEAUTIFUL!
Do you charge travel fees?
Nope! What you see in your personalized contract is what you'll get invoiced and all travel is included.
