Hi There! I’m Stacey!

Adventure elopement and small wedding photographer

As an adventure elopement photographer based in the United States West Coast, I specialize in capturing the raw, natural beauty of the outdoors and the intimate moments between couples in love. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling, I strive to create stunning images that will transport you back to your special day for years to come. My goal is to create a stress-free, fun experience for my clients, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the moment and enjoy their elopement to the fullest. With a commitment to personalized service and a deep appreciation for the natural world, I am dedicated to creating a photography experience that truly reflects your love story and your unique personalities.

What does it mean to have an adventure elopement?

At its core, an adventure elopement is about more than just getting married. It's about choosing to celebrate your love story in a way that's true to who you are as a couple. It's about creating memories that will last a lifetime, and embarking on a journey that's as exciting as it is meaningful.

An adventure elopement is a chance to break free from convention and embrace the wild side of life. It's about immersing yourself in nature, pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, and experiencing the world in a way that you'll never forget.

Imagine saying your vows atop a remote mountain peak, surrounded by sweeping vistas and the sound of nothing but the wind. Or exchanging rings on a secluded beach, with the sun setting behind you and the waves crashing at your feet. The possibilities are endless, and the only limit is your imagination.

But an adventure elopement is more than just a stunning location. It's about the experiences you share together as a couple. It's about hiking to that epic spot, taking that helicopter ride, or embarking on that multi-day backpacking trip. It's about challenging yourselves, pushing your limits, and experiencing the beauty of the world in a way that few others get to.

And when it's all said and done, you'll have memories that will last a lifetime. You'll have photographs that tell the story of your love and your adventure, and that transport you back to that magical day every time you look at them.
