FEATURING YOU

With special guests:

Alex & 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, we just want you to know that we’re here to help and to listen. We know what it’s like. And if you need ANYTHING, don’t hesitate to reach out. We 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!

Hey There! We’re Alex & Kelly

Your elopement photographers, and dream organizers.

We met during a caving trip in West Virginia, and when we clipped carabiners together we just knew… we both feel best in the wild and when we’re together, so it was kind of a no-brainer to continue adventuring together.

We love the outdoors so much we moved across the country from Pennsylvania to Grand Junction, Colorado.. the perfect mix and access to mountains and red rocks. We hike, climb, chase fresh powder for days and take spelunking survey classes on the weekends, We live for this sh*t.

THE OUTDOORS, ALONG WITH ADVENTURE IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR RELATIONSHIP. THAT’S WHY WHEN IT WAS TIME FOR US TO GET MARRIED, WE COULDN’T IMAGINE DOING IT ANY OTHER WAY, OTHER THAN TO ELOPE.

We’ve been there…

It was waaay back in ye olde 2016 when we started the whole wedding planning thing. We just defaulted to a traditional wedding because… that’s just what you do, right? Pretty soon we were neck deep in swatches, vendor emails, price comparison spreadsheets, etc., etc., etc. Something felt deeply wrong. Why should we put so much time, energy, and stress-induced stomach cramps into a day that’s supposed to be a joyful celebration of our love? Nah!

So…

We forged our own path to love. We eloped! This was back before there were all the resources there are now so we just had to make it up as we went along. And it was amazing. Best decision of our lives (besides marrying each other, of course). Elopements FTW!!!

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

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

A brief pause to honor your awesomeness

WE ARE 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, we 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. We just want you to know that we see you. We hope you see yourselves too.

FOLLOW YOUR LOVE WHEREVER IT LEADS

Don’t hold your awesomeness back

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

We are elopement photographers (that much should be obvious by now), but we are also elopement planners and dream organizers who orchestrate an entire day for you.

Don’t let little things like logistics or timelines stand in your way. We’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 take in the sprawling Utah vistas without feeling rushed. From lots of experience, we 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. And once you’re at your destination, getting ready and changing into your wedding attire takes longer than you’d think. 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. We’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. THEY WERE WITH US FROM SUNUP TO SUNDOWN AND NEVER MISSED A BEAT”

Just so you can understand how completely we’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, we can help you check off two of the biggest decisions in the planning process

  • your elopement date
  • and a general location

THEN WE GO INTO FULL ON PLANNING MODE!

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

  • It all starts with what we call the “Elopement Planning” Questionnaire. And after we pour over your answers from the questionnaire and do tons of research, we will find a bunch of perfect locations and we will custom build….
  • A personalized location list that checks all of your boxes so you two can select where you want to elope. Our location lists come with a custom-made by us 3D Map (shown here) with all of the proposed elopement locations and highlights of our travel route, whether that’s by foot, by car, Jeep, helicopter…. everything you need to make your decision about where you’re going to elope will be right in your location list!

AND ONCE YOU PICK THE PERFECT LOCATION, WE 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, we 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 we know the ones who are! We 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 desert! We are the experts you’ve been looking for!

PLANNING YOUR ELOPEMENT, FROM START TO FINISH

After we’ve made the bigger decisions, we 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.

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

YOUR WILDLY DIFFERENT WEDDING DAY EXPERIENCE.

We document your day as it unfolds. We 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! We always send you a handful of sneak peeks the day or two after your elopement, because we know how excited you are to see them, and we are SO excited to show them to you! Then you’ll get your full gallery a few weeks later. 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 OPTIONS

After you’re done oooooo-ing and ahhhh-ing over your gallery, and you’ve decided these precious photos need a permanent spot in your home and in your life, let’s start designing your wedding album. All of the albums that our couples purchase through us are designed by me, carefully packaged and delivered straight to your home.

  • Options on cover material and color from linen to leather and marigold to neutrals
  • Opens up flat with an almost invisible crease
  • Personalize the cover with anything you want. The coordinates of where you said your vows, your anniversary date, your initials or names. Anything you want!

What’s it like working with us?

Hear it from our past couples

“A+ people, and photographers!”

Alex and Kelly were absolutely phenomenal from day one! I contacted a few other photographers before finding Alex and Kelly and I immediately fell in love with their style and the way that they captured each moment. I reached out and they quickly responded and set up a time to talk. From our first conversation, it felt like we were talking with old friends. As we discussed our vision for our elopement day they shared our excitement and we went over a theoretical timeline of what the day would look like. It was evident that they were experienced and professional. As soon as we hung up the phone I knew that we would be booking with them!

In the months leading up to our elopement, Alex and Kelly did all of the legwork behind the scenes – getting permits, nailing down the timelines, and figuring out the best plan for the day. They were patient and worked with us even though we changed our location multiple times – always responding to us in a timely manner! Each time I suggested a new possible location they were right there to provide adventure ideas, AirBnB options, etc. etc.

When the big day arrived, they were right on time and were so prepared! They had backpacks full of everything you could need, including hand warmers which were so appreciated on a chilly October morning. 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. They were with us from sunup to sundown and never missed a beat – literally laying in the dirt and climbing up the canyon walls to get the best angles.

Less than 24 hours after they departed, we had over 40 sneak peek photos and a month after our wedding we had all of our photos. I was thrilled with the turnaround time but more importantly, the quality of the pictures!

I can’t recommend Alex and Kelly enough! 11/10, 5 Stars, A+ people and photographers. Book them for any of your adventure photography needs and you will not be disappointed!!!

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

It doesn’t get better than Alex and Kelly.

This dynamic husband and wife team is talented, professional and FUN! We couldn’t have asked for better photographers or planners for our special day. We booked these two two-weeks before our wedding. From the get go, Kelly was responsive and communicated well in all forms and they 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!!

They take 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 they so kindly let us borrow by the way), Alex had already pulled out the pump and started to inflate the raft. They were both so patient as we struggled to get to the small island and helped coach me up the rocks from their viewpoint. As we were doing our pictures on the island, they helped comfort our very anxious dog on the main land without even asking. After we returned, once again, Alex jumped right in and helped deflate the raft and very unexpectedly rolled it up and attached it Kelly’s backpack to help carry it back for us. To me, I was just so impressed by their willingness to go above and beyond and just proves how awesome and helpful these two are.

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 they captured.

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

“Meeting Alex and Kelly felt like reuniting with long lost friends”

We are so happy that we decided to go with Alex and Kelly to take pictures for our elopement. They were so sweet and helped us every step of the way. We were nervous planning at first because we’d never been to the area we eloped in before but they helped us find the perfect location to say our vows!

We got our pictures back not long after we got back home, and we are IN LOVE with them! They captured the day perfectly. Reviewing through them with my husband it was like we were back in Colorado.

Meeting Alex and Kelly felt like reuniting with long lost friends and they gave us some pretty great recommendations for food in the area as well (we liked the place so much we went twice while we were there!).

We got a little altitude sick while we were in the mountains but Alex and Kelly were super helpful and flexible with our small change of plans. Alex and Kelly are so talented and kind, we’d definitely recommend them for any couple looking for someone to capture their big day.

So, yeah, we’ve got packages. But we want to encourage you to think of them as “Un-Packages.” 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. You dream it up, we’ll take on every task so you don’t have to stress about a single thing.

So

Build-An-Elopement
