about your California elopement together...
Picture a serene morning, where you gleefully whip up breakfast side by side, your hearts brimming with anticipation for the day ahead. No jitters over the nitty-gritty details today, because there's no grand spectacle in the works.
Instead, you're embarking on a whimsical mountain escapade with your dearest companion, ready to revel in each other's company, sharing hearty laughter amidst the great outdoors.
As the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of gold, you exchange heartfelt vows, sealing your love in a moment of breathtaking beauty. And what follows is a night spent luxuriating in a steaming hot spring, gazing up at the star-studded canopy, hand in hand with your newlywed.
Does this sound like the enchanting wedding day you've always dreamed of? Well then, you've arrived at the perfect destination! Meet your California elopement photographer below.
Take me to the california elopement experience
You wake up from a restful sleep in a rustic cabin in a forest.
Let's Daydream
...Justin smiled across at his lovely bride, Laura. As they share their heartfelt vows, taking turns wiping tears from the other's cheek, my eyes are misty behind the camera too.
The deep, shared emotions.
The love that's more real than fairy-tales.
The big, goofy smile during a first look.
The tears forming during the vow exchange.
The celebration and immense happiness when you're officially married!!!
This is why I do what I do. Getting to be a part of one of the most important and intimate days in your life, I do not take lightly. During every elopement I find myself sharing in the joy with my couples, laughing and crying right alongside you.
I've honed my craft for 7 amazing years, venturing from sweeping landscapes to captivating portraits. When I discovered the world of adventure elopements, I knew I found my calling. This is why I became a California elopement photographer, and crafted an elopement experience like no other. From planning your dream elopement day all the way to sending your final gallery full of timeless memories, I've got your back every step of the way.

“I have a big collection of photos where I look like a clumsy and awkward scarecrow. I always freeze when a camera turns my way. Working with Kasey for our wedding was an amazing experience, she had us moving around and interacting, we didn't feel awkward and the photos are amazing. We were astonished - who knew we were models in the rough!”
-Suzy & Paul

As a California elopement photographer, I meet lots of couples who tell me they don't want to throw a huge party, they don't want to spend the day trying to please everyone but themselves, or spend months stressing over wedding details. My response is that this is completely okay. In fact, it's more than okay - it's awesome! It's your wedding day celebrating your relationship, and it should look and feel however you want. What ignites your soul? What makes you feel excited? What is special to you and your partner? These are the questions I want you to ask yourself when thinking about your elopement. You shouldn't have to worry about what anybody else thinks, but you.
you deserve a wedding day as epic as your love
Psst...
Consider this your permission slip to ditch the norm and get married the way you want to
your relationship deserves to be celebrated in a way that feels like you
imagine what the best day you could dream up with your partner would look like...
so
tell me about your dream day!
