"She is absolutely amazing to work with as well—instead of feeling awkward and very posed during photos we were laughing and having a great time. There was no pressure or urgency."

Jennifer & Ryan

Getting to know You

  • A big part of making beautiful photos is trusting the process and being yourselves. So, I want to make sure we get to know each other and get comfortable whether that's meeting up in person or hopping on a few calls!
  • You'll get a fun questionnaire sent your way after booking that gives me the inside scoop on your relationship and guides my inspiration for your photos and your day-of experience! Also serves as a fun date night.
  • I not only want your photos to be beautiful and epic, but I want your whole day to be tailored-to-you.

A Tailored To You Elopement Experience

  • Your elopement day is all about you and your vision and I'm here to make that a reality, so lay it all on me!
  • I also have tons of ideas if you're looking for inspiration or want to try something new and exciting.
  • We'll bounce ideas back and forth and settle on whatever sounds best.
  • If you book a Done-For-You package then I can take charge of booking things for you as well.

My Elopement Expertise is all yours!

  • You'll have my unlimited planning calls, guidance, resources and support when working with me.
  • In addition to a jam packed elopement guide, you'll get: Location scouting, permit info, vendor recs, photo timelines, backup plans, accommodation recs, packing lists, and more!
  • If you book a Done-For-You package then we'll talk about additional vendors and experiences you want booked and I'll create a package that includes those as well.
  • You can pick my brain, send me all the emails, and ask me all the questions.

Photos that feel like you

  • You deserve images that are not only beautiful, but meaningful.
  • You'll catch me picking up on little interactions, comments, and body language and adjusting prompts and poses as we go.
  • I'll nerd out over beautiful light and scenery and get those sweeping shots that make your heart sing.

Your local Alaskan pro

  • I'm Alaskan born and raised and know how unpredictable the weather can be, which is why I offer a backup day (usually the day after) included in your packages, so you have peace of mind we'll be able to make weather dependent parts happen.
  • I'll connect you with other local vendors that are amazing and pre-vetted.

Your elopement experience as a whole, outside of just the photography, is SO important to me. It plays a big part in why I do what I do, the services I offer and the expertise I bring to the table. If you're looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond to make your day as special as it can be, then you're in the right place.

How many images are included in the packages?

You get all the best photos in an online gallery!

I deliver between 50-70 photos per hour, sometimes more depending on the day and how much time is spent shooting.

Photos that don't make the cut, i.e. blinking, unflattering pose or angle, bad lighting, etc. are deleted so you only get the best of the best (and bloopers if that's something you dig ;)).

Most of my couples end up having 8 hour+ elopement days to ensure they have plenty of time for all of their activities without feeling rushed around from event to event.

What's cool about my approach to elopements is that when you book me you have me for the day and we'll figure out a timeline in advance that you can plan on, and if anything goes off schedule you don't have to worry about it one bit because I can be there the whole day!

Elopement galleries are delivered between 1-3 months depending on the time of year and stage of wedding season we are in. I'll give you a real-time update on gallery delivery based on your day!

For portrait sessions, images are delivered within 3-4 weeks during peak season or as fast as a week during slower months.

My goal is to spend time carefully choosing and editing each of your photos and not just rushing through the edits.
