You don't need to have it all figured out.
With 25 years in these mountains, the overlooks, river spots, and hidden trails are all familiar territory — so you don't have to figure it all out alone.
Right now, planning your elopement might feel exciting… but also a little overwhelming. Where do you begin? How do you turn an idea into a real day?
That's exactly what this process is designed for.
Most couples reach out before they have everything figured out. All you really need is the beginning of an idea — and together we'll turn that spark into a clear plan that feels natural and true to you.
It's never too early (or too late) to begin the conversation.
What are you dreaming about?
What Working Together Looks Like
Not sure if it fits your budget?
That's completely okay - it's a question most couples start with
Every wedding day looks a little different, and the amount of photography coverage you need often ends up being different than what you first imagined.
Before you rule anything out, Emilie encourages couples to simply start a conversation.
She’ll spend time learning what matters most to you — the parts of the day you care about, how your plans are shaping up, and the kind of experience you want your wedding to feel like.
From there, she helps turn those ideas into a clear timeline so you can see exactly how much coverage makes sense for your day.
Sometimes couples realize they need less coverage than they expected.
Sometimes they choose a little more time so they can slow down and fully enjoy the day.
Either way, you’ll figure it out together.

INTIMATE, NATURAL AND DEEPLY MEANINGFUL WEDDING THAT FEELS RIGHT
Your wedding day shouldn’t feel like a performance.
It should feel like a day lived fully — surrounded by the people who matter most.
What you'll get is simple: real moments documented as they happen.
The way you reach for each other’s hands.
The laughter during the speeches.
The quiet in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening.
It’s a story unfolding naturally throughout the day.
Presence over perfection.
Connection over posing.
Photos that bring you right back to how it all felt.
Elopements
YOUR DAY THAT FEELS QUIET, INTENTIONAL, AND TRULY YOURS
You’re here because the idea of a big, traditional wedding never quite felt right.
Instead, you’re drawn to something simpler.
Something meaningful.
A day that feels natural and unhurried.
Eloping gives you the freedom to slow down and choose what actually matters — whether that’s standing on a mountain overlook, walking a quiet trail together, or sharing the moment with just a few people you love.
This isn’t just about photos.
It’s about being fully present in a place that means something to you, while your story is documented honestly as it unfolds.
Because the beginning of your marriage deserves to feel as real and unforgettable as the mountains around you.
