It takes two to make a marriage, no one else (okay maybe you need an officiant and me, of course). My couples do not need a party of many, they just need each other. Their love runs deep and they choose to marry in a way that runs true to their life. I love elopements because they allow me to be so intimately acquainted with you and your love story. I can't wait to show you how deeply meaningful and joyous your love is.

For the intimately in love
I have fallen more in love with your day each time I touch your photos. Your infectious smiles and twinkling eyes make me smile. I can see how much love you have for each other and how utterly deep it runs. I love how you got married exactly how you wanted to celebrate your love. Quietly and deeply, with eyes for only one another. Because all you need is each other.
Endlessly in love
Melissa & Connor
If there was ever a couple who never shied away from doing what they wanted to do, it would be this amazing couple. They opted to celebrate their union at Maymont Park in Richmond VA with an engagement shoot, in their own vintage style. Then they invited close family and friends to "come hang out with them" at a certain time and got wed nestled in the park surrounded by their closest circle.

The Northern VA Elopement Experience
I approach all of my work with a lot of joy, laughter, and ease. I am quick to smile and I highly encourage conversations and showing each other just how much and how you love. I will laugh with you as you find the beauty in the little moments throughout your day, cry with you as you honor the beloved ones no longer on this earth with us, and celebrate your intimate union to the one you love most. Let's adventure into this exciting time together, shall we?
LIFE’S intimate MOMENTS ARE WORTHY OF BEING REMEMBERED. YOU DESERVE TO have them captured.
Did you fall in love with my work? Or maybe thought me as your kinda peoples? Well you're in the right place.
I truly love stories and I'd love to hear yours. Connecting with my clients I'm shooting is so very important to me. It's not just a one-time transaction. It's the beginning of a very lovely friendship. So please, write me a story, tell me how you met your partner, and what s/he/they did that made you smile so hard. It'll brighten my day too.
1. Send me a note
I take on very few elopements every year, as they require additional time and care to ensure your day goes as smoothly (and as low-key!) as possible. My elopements are perfect for couples who know what they want to do and just need a little bit of additional guidance/reassurance throughout the way! They want someone to be their fly-on-the-wall best friend who can get along with everyone and guide the day accordingly.
After we chat to ensure we're a good fit for each other and determine the date, we will make it official with an invoice and contract! 50% of the invoice is due to book your date. Once that's squared away, I will send you a Google calendar invite as well.
2. Consult + Schedule it
I am there for every step of the way. We will nail down the schedule together, guide you through obtaining photography/park permits (as needed), determine what's important to you to have captured, talk about coordinating your first look, create shot lists, etc. I am as involved as you need me to be. In fact, I am always happy to get sneak peeks of you in your wedding dress of choice and hype. you. up.
* Changes to the location that require an update to the invoice (i.e. extra mileage, parking, photo permits, etc) will be reflected in the final due amount.
3. We Plan!
It's the big day! You have your dress, he has his suit, your hair/make-up is done, and you're excited! You are getting M-A-R-R-I-E-D! You know where you're going and I'm ready for you!
When you arrive, I'll come say hi. I'll have my timeline with me and we'll start making magic together. The rest is history and you'll be married!
4. we make magic!
I will geek over all the big and little moments while editing and share sneak peeks with you within a few short days.
Once I'm done editing (typically within 2-4 weeks), I upload and deliver your beautiful gallery into your email inbox! You'll sit down with your partner with whatever drink you fancy and look at your photos together. Don't forget to download all your memories immediately too! You can then purchase any additional wall art or digitals a la carte straight from your gallery. And if you'd like to chat heirloom albums, let me know!
