this is where THE REAL

STORY BEGINS...

 
 
 

YOU'RE NOT JUST TYING

THE KNOT, YOU'RE EMBARKING ON LIFE'S GREATEST ADVENTURE!

 
 

I know planning something as meaningful as your elopement can feel like a whirlwind - so many possibilities, so many ways to make it your own. But you don’t have to figure it all out alone, because from here on out I've got your back!

​

From helping you find the perfect location to building a timeline that lets you soak in every moment (and breathe!), I’ll be there from start to finish. You deserve the day of your dreams, whatever that looks like. So, let's create an experience that's memorable, unique, and wholeheartedly YOU!

How do you want your love story to be remembered?

 

You’ve been thinking about how to make this day feel like you, not some cookie-cutter checklist. So picture this: you're hiking through golden light, hand in hand, wind in your hair, completely present with the love of your life. No strict timelines, no seating charts, no one pulling you in a hundred directions. Just a day built around what matters most: your story, your connection, and the wild, beautiful backdrop you chose to say forever.

YOUR PAL AND YOUR CONFIDANTE

Hey friend! I'm Faith! Your professional third-wheel and adventure buddy for the most exciting day of your lives!

 

As your photographer, my mission is to capture your story in a way that will let you feel everything all over again. When you're flipping through your photos years from now, I want you to be able to remember the wind in your hair, how tightly you held each other, the laughter, the nerves, and that deep, steady love you've built together. These aren't just pretty pictures - they're moments that'll bring it all rushing back, even 10, 20, or 30 years later.

1. LET'S KICK THINGS OFF WITH A VIRTUAL HANGOUT

 

Once you book a call with me, we'll dive deep into your vision for the day! I’ll bring my experience and ideas to the table, and together, we’ll craft a day that feels completely you!

 

2. I’LL MAKE PLANNING YOUR DAY EASY AND FUN

 
 

With over 5 years of elopement planning experience, I’ve got you covered from start to finish. Whether it’s recommending the perfect vendors, creating unique-to-you activity ideas, helping you find accommodations, or navigating the logistics of national park permits of your adventurous day; I’m here to guide you every step of the way. My goal is to take the stress out of planning so you can focus on enjoying making memories together!

 

3. I’LL CRAFT A STRESS-FREE TIMELINE

 

About 30 days before your big day, we’ll go over all the final details and logistics together. I’ll use that info, along with my experience, to craft a timeline that ensures you’re at the perfect spots at the best times, with plenty of room to relax and fully enjoy every moment without feeling rushed.

 

4. YOU ENJOY YOUR DAY, I'LL DOCUMENT YOUR STORY

 
 

Your wedding day should be about spending time with the people you love, not feeling like you’re stuck in a never-ending photoshoot. My approach balances capturing the photos that tell the story of your day while giving you the space to enjoy every moment. I’ll step in when needed and then step back to catch the candid, authentic moments - so you can just be yourselves and soak in the most meaningful day of your lives!

 

5. YOU'LL RECIEVE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS THAT LET YOU RELIVE YOUR SPECIAL DAY

I’ll send you both an email link to a high-resolution sneak peek of your images within 24-48 hours after your big day, so you can start sharing the excitement right away! Then I’ll get to work editing the rest of your gallery, and you can expect to receive your full gallery within 6-8 weeks.

 
 

6. ORDER YOUR ALBUM AND PRINTS

 
 

You and your loved ones will be able to order albums and prints directly from your user-friendly online gallery, so you can decorate your walls with memories from your amazing experience.

+ Online Gallery & Printing Rights

Just me, my camera, and a whole lot of excitement to document your love wherever it takes you. You focus on the adventure, I’ll handle the rest.

Finding your perfect spot can come with a few hoops to jump through - but that’s where I come in. I’ll help you figure out what permits you need, how to get them, and make sure we’re all set on guest limits, ceremony rules, or prop policies. No stress, just more time to focus on the fun stuff.

Frequently Asked Questions

 
  • Do You Shoot Both Weddings And Elopements?
    You bet! I'm all about documenting love, no matter if it's a grand wedding celebration or an intimate elopement getaway. I'm here to capture your unique love story in all its glory!
  • How Many Photos Will We Get and When?
    You can expect to receive anywhere from 300-750 images within 6-8 weeks of your wedding date, but most likely sooner, because I get excited to edit them all :D
  • Do You Offer Payment Plans?
    Yes! I understand that budgeting for your big day can be a bit of a juggle, so I offer flexible payment plans to all my couples to make things a little easier for you.
  • Do You Charge Travel Fees?
    Nope! No sneaky travel fees here! All my collections have everything covered, so you can focus on planning your epic celebration without worrying about hidden costs.
  • We're Not Comfortable In Front of the Camera...
    Worry you not, I've got you covered! Being a pro at making you feel at ease is kinda my superpower. Most of the couples you see in my portfolio are camera-shy too, but look at them now - totally rocking it! Trust me, I'll help bring out the best in you!
  • Can You Photoshop Us To Look Different?
    If you have a blemish or something that isn't normally there, I'll use my magic to make it disappear. But I will never make you look like someone you're not. I believe that every person is beautiful in their own unique way, and I want your photos to reflect that!
  • What If We Don't Have An Exact Date or Location in Mind?
    No worries, that's actually super common! Get in touch and we can figure out all the details together! Teamwork makes the dream work, right?
  • What Happens If You Can't Be At Our Wedding or Elopement?
    Oh! That would be the saddest thing ever!!! I'll make every effort to be there to capture your special day, but if I'm unable to - for whatever reason - I'll communicate this with you and get you a replacement photographer. My priority is and always will be making sure you have a stress-free day, so I'll refund what you paid me or pay the new photographer directly. Another option is to hire one of the photographers I recommend and I can edit your images so you can still get my style!
  • What If the Weather's Bad On Our Big Day?
    Bad weather? Bring it on! I've outran 3 tornadoes in my lifetime, so trust me, I'm not scared of a little rain. Sometimes crazy weather can make for some epic memories! But just in case, we'll have a backup plan ready to roll. We'll communicate that together, so no worries!
  • Do We Have to Go On a 5+ Mile Hike for Our Elopement?
    Nope! An elopement is all about doing what makes you happy, so if a short and sweet stroll is more your style, let's do that! There's plenty of locations that offer shorter hikes, and some that offer all the views and no hike at all. It's your day, do what works best for you!
  • Are Our Photos Safe With You?
    Absolutely! I treat your photos as if they're my own, so they're in safe hands. I keep your photos forever on a physical hard drive. I do this because life happens (either lost or damaged photos, or loved ones passing on) but I want your memories to be secure. It's about your legacy and the people who matter most to you, and I want to do my part to help protect that.
