DID SOMEBODY SAY... AN INTENTIONAL ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE FULL OF ADVENTURE?!
SO! You and your partner decided you want an elopement day that's full of connection, adventure, and intention while being grounded in the place you both love most: the magical outdoors... 🌿🌲
HERE'S THE THING: There's limitless possibilities to crafting your dream elopement experience. When you realize that, it's a little daunting right?!
TAKE A DEEP BREATH. I'm here to take your dreams and turn them into reality for you while documenting the art of your love and story!
Are you ready to fuck around and find out what your elopement experience can really be?!!!
OH, WE'RE READY!
what happens when you find a photographer that puts your experience first?
I'll let a few of my past eloping couples tell you:
"...I instantly felt comfortable with her like we knew each other for years."
"....From the zoom calls to in person, she made you feel like she was with you every step of the way."
"....My husband and I typically shy away from attention, so had some nerves going into the whole day, but she took that all away. She is also really communicative and caring."
"...Every single picture feels like we're in the moment, and not a pose we were instructed to get in for a picture."
ope, hi there! i'm sam!
I believe in the importance of preserving & respecting the beautiful outdoors! We will be following Leave No Trace practices to preserve the beauty of where we explore.
"The photos are stunning and capture the day beautifully. We’re so lucky to have found such a wonderful photographer, who puts the couple first and can really capture all the emotions we’re having on such a big day!"

"The planning process was easy, her suggestions and expertise were great to have, and our pictures turned out so so good! She always made sure we got the pictures/poses we wanted and came us with ideas as well that we loved! So grateful to have picked Sam to be our elopement photographer and to have such wonderful photos to look back on forever to remember our day!"

here's some inspiration of what your elopement experience could look like.
"Everything gets quiet when I look at you." - B.K. Borison
Most of my couples book either the 8 or 12 hour package to document the full story of their adventure! On your complimentary consult call, we can discuss what coverage works best for your vision and dream!
+ how much coverage do we need?
+ dO WE HAVE To know OUR LOCATION TO BOOK WITH YOU?
Heck to the no!! You don't need to have all the details of your elopement planned out to inquire/book with me!! I actually help 90% of my couples help find a location that speaks to their hearts after they book with me!
+what is an intentional elopement experience?
It just adds a little extra spice to your magical day ;) In all honesty, I will have back-up plans just in case the weather is bad! If it's not endangering anyone, you can totally just own it and get married in a downpour!
We will totally go with the flow and make the most out of your big day, no matter what!
+ what happens if there's bad weather?
It's all about incorporating traditions you actually care about (and ditching the ones you don't), incorporating your love languages, doing things that you both love (or trying something new if that speaks to you), and really just being intentional with your wedding day decisions!
If including some loved ones aligns with your elopement vision, then bring them on in! It's also important to keep in mind that logistics start getting difficult with more people and will limit location options! (Ex. adequate parking spots, seating, accessibility, bathrooms, etc. start to get complicated when you add guests to your day)
+ Can We have guests?
Yes, yes, and yes!! I'm not just your elopement photographer, but also your very-own elopement expert!! I'm here to make the whole planning process as fun and stress-free as possible! That includes making sure we have all the right permits for your big day!
+ will you help us with permits?
