Vows Made in Wild Places.
For the couples who are daydreaming about something a liiiiittle off-beat for their wedding day. The roadtrippers at heart. The experiences-over-things folks. The “wait… but what if I DID jump in the lake in my wedding dress?” dreamers. YOU are my people, and I am yours!
I’m all about capturing love stories out in the wild—where vows feel freer, kisses last longer, and the trees absolutely outnumber the people.
Helping couples have a one-of-a-kind elopement experience starts with crafting a completely personalized itinerary—one that feels like an extension of your love story. And that begins with getting to know what makes you and your partner GLOW!
What locations light that little fire inside you—the kind that makes you want to throw the car door open and run straight into the crisp air? What shared adventures flood your mind with memories that make your heart race? What foods make you do that little happy dance???
All of these details come together to create a day that feels unmistakably, unapologetically you. And I’m here to help you weave them into an elopement itinerary that’s as wild, free, and unforgettable as your love story together.
Let’s hit the road! Where are we off to first??

Creating a space where couples feel safe, accepted, & celebrated is the most important thing to me with every session. Queer love is beautiful, trans joy is POWERFUL, and these stories deserve to be documented with passion & a deep understanding of the significance involved. As a trans photographer, I know what it’s like to want a space where you can just be you, no explanations needed. That’s exactly what I create for every couple I work with– Proudly celebrating the LGBTQIA2S+ community, trans folks, poly families, and everyone unabashedly in love.

What’s a piece of advice you find yourself giving to all your couples?
Stop stressing over who you’re NOT inviting to your big day!!! Seriously. I know it’s easy to spiral into guilt, worrying about who might feel left out. But the truth is– the people who love you, truly love you, WILL understand. Of course they want to celebrate with you, but no one is going to be genuinely upset that you’re choosing to say your vows with just one or two people present (or no one at all!).
And, there are so many ways to include them without them physically being there! You can record personal video messages before or after your elopement, have a cozy celebration dinner later, or even bring along mementos that make you feel connected to them. Your wedding day is about you and your love story—so don’t let outside pressure dictate how it should feel.
What’s one wedding trend that you wish would come back?
Eye-catching, vintage getaway cars! Give me a cherry-red convertible, a classic VW bus, a rugged old Land Rover—something with soul, character, and the kind of style that makes your grand exit feel straight out of a movie. There’s just something about driving off into the sunset together that feels i c o n i c ! The perfect metaphor for starting a new adventure. Plus, I just really need more veils billowing in the wind of a vintage convertible. I need it, the world needs it, let’s do ittt!
What’s the most rewarding thing about being a wedding pro?
For me, it’s helping couples feel that warm, deep-down feeling of being truly seen. Not just in photos, but in the way their entire wedding experience is crafted around who they are, what they love, and how they want to celebrate. Eloping is about the freedom to create a day that feels extravagant in all the right ways, without the weight of expectations. There’s nothing that I love more than stomping on that mean little voice in your head that might be asking “All this for me? Am I important enough for all this?”. Yes, you are, and we are going to party accordingly!!
