FEATURING YOU

With special guests:

Kelly of

WHEN YOUR HEART’S THE COMPASS, YOU CAN’T GET LOST.
WHERE IS LOVE LEADING YOU?

LET’S SET UP A TIME TO TALK!

What’s your wedding all about?

LET’S START WITH YOU. WHERE ARE YOU AT?
EXCITED? DAYDREAMING NONSTOP? MAYBE A LITTLE OVERWHELMED? ALL THE FEELS ALL AT ONCE?

First and foremost, I just want you to know that i’m here to help and to listen. I know what it’s like. And if you need ANYTHING, don’t hesitate to reach out. I want you to have all the joy and stoked-ness during your engagement and throughout this planning process with 0% of the stress.

Make it all about the love. Make it all about the adventure!

Hi, I'm Kelly! That's me ^^

Your elopement photographer, and dream organizer.

The outdoors are my life and I’m so lucky to be able to share them with couples who are bubbling over with love. While I am a photographer, my services and what you get from me goes far past the photos.

Think of me as your organized, outdoorsy, photographer friend (who’s also really good at keeping things fun and light- no awkwardness here). When you choose to work with me for your elopement, you’ll get a personal and intimate day created just for you and your partner. We’re swapping stress for fun and stiff poses for dreamy movement. All you have to do is show up and say “I do”- I’ll take care of the rest!

THE OUTDOORS, ALONG WITH ADVENTURE IS PART OF MY DNA. THAT’S WHY I CAN’T RECOMMEND AN OUTDOOR ADVENTURE ELOPEMENT ENOUGH.

The proof is in the pudding (or reviews, really).

After planning and executing my own elopement in 2016, and then working with over 130 couples from around the country to bring their elopement dreams to life, I’m an expert on the topic. For years I’ve been perfecting my trade and working hard to include all of the things I wish someone had been around to include for me. The feedback I receive from these services is overwhelming. I’ve yet to meet a couple that regretted ditching the big, filly wedding for a quiet yet awesome-as-hell day with just the two of them.

This is all to say that I get you. I’m cheering for you. I want to do everything I possibly can to help you create a day that goes beyond your wildest dreams.

Like beyond beyond. If that were a thing (i’m making it a thing!), that’s what I will do for you.

A brief pause to honor your awesomeness

I AM SO ABSURDLY PUMPED THAT YOU CHOSE TO ELOPE. CAN WE JUST TAKE A MINUTE TO RECOGNIZE HOW AWESOME YOU ARE?

Sometimes eloping is the easy and obvious choice. Sometimes it’s a really complex decision that may involve some tough talks with Mom, Dad, Grandparents, and your BFF from college who was dead set on being your most adoring maid of honor. However eloping came about for you, I want to aim the spotlight right at you and just slow clap until the applause gets deafening and brings down the house!

It takes a special couple to elope. It takes two beautiful, courageous humans to carve out their own adventurous path to your own unique expression of love. I just want you to know that I see you. I hope you see yourselves too.

FOLLOW YOUR LOVE WHEREVER IT LEADS

Don’t hold your awesomeness back

Since you’ve made it this far, I want to encourage you to go further. Go high, go deep into the wilderness. Go all the way to wherever your love leads you. You can’t get lost.

I am an elopement photographer (that much should be obvious by now), but I am also an elopement planner and dream organizer who will orchestrate an entire day for you.

Don’t let little things like logistics or timelines stand in your way. I’ve got the maps, the vendor recommendations, the locations scouted out. Every. Little. Thing. So you can focus on the big things, like your love and your adventure.

The key here is to dream big. That means giving yourselves permission (and time) to really adventure. That might mean an epic all-day hike to the backcountry. It could even mean more than one day in more than one location, getting an experience (and pictures!) that you’ll never forget.

When you’re envisioning your day, keep in mind how you want the day to feel. It’s an adventure, but you want it to be relaxed so you can stop and smell the wildflowers without feeling rushed. From lots of experience, I can tell you that time flies when you’re eloping. You’ll want to pause at every epic viewpoint to soak it in and get stunning pictures. You’ll want to watch the wildlife, chat, or smooch. This isn’t a day where you want to go-go-go. Give yourselves as much time as you can to really revel in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

This is THE day. It’s YOUR day. So don’t hold back. I’ll hold you up as long and as far as you want to go.

“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE 12 HOUR DAY - IT WAS ENOUGH TIME TO GO AT A RELAXED PACE AND ENJOY THE DAY WHILE BEING ABLE TO DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. KELLY WAS WITH US FROM SUNUP TO SUNDOWN AND NEVER MISSED A BEAT”

Let’s get you taken care of

SO, HOW DOES THE BOOKING AND PLANNING PROCESS WORK?

I like to keep it simple and easy, so you can stay stress-free. Focus on the feels and the friggin’ excitement! I’ll stay focused on you and your perfect day.

STEP 1: PHONE CALL

It all starts with a conversation. I want to know you and the unique parts of your story so we can bring them alive on your special day.

STEP 2: UNLIMITED PLANNING CONSULTS

Based on what I learned about you and your vision, I custom design your dream adventure elopement.

STEP 3: GET MARRIED!

Sit back, chillax, and wait for your big day. Getting married will feel like a dream come to life.

Once your photos are delivered, you can relive and retell your favorite story, through photographs.

SCHEDULE YOUR FREE ELOPEMENT CONSULT HERE.

Just so you can understand how completely I’ve got you taken care of…

HERE’S A HANDY DANDY LIST OF WHAT EACH AND EVERY PACKAGE INCLUDES.

PICKING A DATE AND A GENERAL LOCATION

During our first phone call, I can help you check off two of the biggest decisions in the planning process

  • your elopement date
  • and a general location

THEN I GO INTO FULL ON PLANNING MODE!

After doing this for some time, I’ve found the secret process of designing elopements.

  • It all starts with what I call the “Elopement Planning” Questionnaire. And after I pour over your answers from the questionnaire and do tons of research, I will find a bunch of perfect locations and I will custom build….
  • A personalized location list that checks all of your boxes so you two can select where you want to elope. Your location list comes with a custom-made 3D Map (shown here) with all of the proposed elopement locations and hikes.

AND ONCE YOU PICK THE PERFECT LOCATION, I BUILD ANOTHER BESPOKE…

ELOPEMENT PLANNING GUIDE

crafted just for you. It will be jam packed with everything you need to know when it comes to figuring out what your dream elopement looks like, what to bring, what to wear, who to invite, how many hours of coverage you’ll need and so much more!

And throughout the entire process, I offer…

UNLIMITED HELP WITH ALL THINGS ELOPEMENT, AND ALL THINGS ADVENTURE.

Not every hair and make-up artist is down for a 4 AM wake up call, but I know the ones who are (so you can stop googling now!) I can also show you how to pack your charcuterie board in your backpack, or help you pick out a dessert that can be easily transported in the mountains!

PLANNING YOUR ELOPEMENT, FROM START TO FINISH

After we’ve made the bigger decisions, i’ll send out another questionnaire to help lock in what your day will look like from start to finish. Together we will create the ultimate elopement day timeline that’s tailored to your wants. We won’t miss out on anything you want to experience on your big day.

GET YOU GEARED UP

Why invest in expensive gear when you can just borrow mine? When you book your elopement package through me, you and your partner can borrow from my collection of outdoor equipment and elopement accessories, at no additional cost! The Gear Garage features a wide range of gear, from headlamps and snowshoes, to backpacks and trekking poles. Plus a variety of elopement accessories, including string lights, “just eloped” backpack flare, picnic essentials, bluetooth speakers for your first dance, and so much more! So if you weren’t already seeing the value in my services, do a quick cost analysis based on the gear you might need.

BIG BONUS! My travel expenses are INCLUDED in the pricing you see

YOUR WILDLY DIFFERENT WEDDING DAY EXPERIENCE.

I’ll document your day as it unfolds. I capture all the little details, the candid giggles, you two exchanging vows next to incredible scenery, and the two of you having an absolute kick-ass day.

YOUR WEDDING DAY PICTURES

Sit down and get ready to ooo and ahhh and probably even cry some happy tears – your pictures of your AH-mazing elopement are here! I always send a handful of sneak peeks the day or two after your elopement, because I know how excited you are to see them, and I am SO excited to show them to you! Then you’ll get your full gallery a few weeks later (never over 8 weeks). The photos will be delivered on a personal URL that contains your gallery of high-resolution, professionally edited photos. You will have the right to download, print, save, share on social media, order high-quality prints right from your gallery, or display on a billboard if that’s what you’re into! (billboard service not provided)

STORYBOOK ALBUM

All of my packages include a complimentary 20 page storybook photo album, designed by us, carefully packaged and delivered straight to your home.

  • Leather cover
  • Opens up flat with an almost invisible crease
  • Exact coordinates of where you said your vows engraved on the cover

What’s it like working with me?

Hear it from my past couples

“I wouldn’t look anywhere else - just book her!”

It doesn’t get better than Kelly.

Kelly is talented, professional and FUN! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer or planner for our special day. We booked Kelly two-weeks before our wedding. From the get go, Kelly was responsive and communicated well in all forms and she offered a TON of ideas for everything we were envisioning. Even through her own sister’s bridal shower, she was texting ME hair and makeup artists!!

She takes so much initiative! As part of our events, we needed to blow up an inflatable raft to get to a small island on the lake. As soon as my husband pulled the raft out of the backpack (which she so kindly let us borrow by the way), Kelly had already pulled out the pump and started to inflate the raft. She was so patient as we struggled to get to the small island and helped coach me up the rocks from her viewpoint. As we were doing our pictures on the island, she helped comfort our very anxious dog on the main land without even asking. After we returned, once again, Kelly jumped right in and helped deflate the raft and very unexpectedly rolled it up and attached it to her backpack to help carry it back for us. To me, I was just so impressed by her willingness to go above and beyond and just proves how awesome and helpful she is.

After our ceremony and celebration, our sneak peek was delivered within a couple of days. We were pleasantly surprised that it came so fast and with so many! The quality of the sneak peek got us super excited as we got to re-live our day through the photos and emotions she captured.

Kelly truly exceeded our expectations and made our day so much more memorable. We’re so happy we went with her, and forever grateful for her passion, creativity, thoughtfulness and commitment to the profession. I wouldn’t look anywhere else – just book her!

But, real quick….

 

So, yeah, i’ve got elopement packages. But, hear me out…. You came all this way (both literally and metaphorically) to have an elopement that is custom fitted to you. Every stitch, every measurement, every fine detail is 100% authentically you. Want to spontaneously stop at a bar in Breckenridge before your ceremony? Sweet (True story)! Drink a martini on top of a mountain? Sounds fancy and rad as hell! Ride a horse in a dense evergreen forest, then watch the sunset from your cozy airbnb? I’m freakin’ there!

Are we on the same page? (OK, I know you’re, like, actually reading my pricing page right now, but i’m totally on your page!)

LET ME BE YOUR ELOPEMENT GUIDE

I am going to help you navigate every detail of this once in a lifetime experience. Think of me as your very own expert you need for all things adventure, and all things elopement. I’m all yours, and I have a process in place to ensure I plan the perfect day for the TWO of you. No two elopements are the same, so I make sure to ask all the right questions to bring your dream elopement to life.

You are the writers of your own love story, and i’m here to tell that story through photographs.

And in addition to everything listed above (and above that ^) you’re going to get a day crafted exclusively to you – a day that will be personal and intimate AF, fun as hell, and stress-free & dreamy. Pluuuus, you’re definitely going to get jaw-dropping, tear-jerking, heart-melting photos.

I DON’T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOUR HEART IS SAYING, BUT I HAVE A FEELING THAT IT’S PROBABLY TELLING YOU SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF: “LET’S FUCKING DO THIS!”

So obey your heart’s call! Give it a megaphone and dial it up to the highest level. Follow where it leads in a soaring freefall!

I’m right here, and absolutely thrilled to show you the stuff your dreams are made of.
