WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO
START WITH PLANNING OUR ELOPEMENT. CAN YOU HELP?

Fuck yeah I can, no matter where we go (Colorado or beyond). Planning starts with me getting to know your wants and needs, and then creating your live, web based experience portal. I'll hand-pick locations for where to say your vows customized to the information you provided, and then help you from beginning to end, including sourcing permits, offering recommendations for things to do and ideas for your wedding date, guidance on how to get your marriage license, and custom timeline creation. You're never alone in this, and that's my commitment to you. If you DO need a full service wedding planner, I also have recommendations!

DO YOU ALSO SHOOT LARGER WEDDINGS?

I absolutely shoot larger events (and had one myself!)! I take larger events on very intentionally; if you're a couple that wants to pave your own traditions and is planning with intention, is open to artful and unique posing, and wants to work with me, I damn-well want to be your photographer, and am willing to travel wherever love leads you!

HOW DO WE DECIDE IF WE NEED A FULL SERVICE PLANNER FOR AN ELOPEMENT? WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN YOUR ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE ASSISTANCE?

My custom experience assistance touches almost every area of planning your elopement and most couples do not need any additional help outside of what I can provide. However, you are still responsible for the entirety of planning your elopement day, and if you need additional support, I suggest booking with a full service planner (especially for the couples who would prefer to be more hands-off). Since my services include assistance but not full planning services, this means I will not be choosing or booking activities for you, booking your lodging, booking your vendors, or booking your travel; I will be, however, answering questions to help you navigate all of these areas, offering extensive recommendations and ideas, providing resources and recommending trusted vendors, hand-picking location options for you, helping source permits, providing recommendations on how to book lodging, travel tips, a packing list, instructions on how to get your marriage license, and a live-web portal to serve as your elopement guide and portal, where all of your planning resources and communications will be stored. 

DO YOU OFFER VIDEOGRAPHY?

Yes! I offer videography in an 8mm Super8 Style (more information can be found here). If you are looking for a more traditional video style, I also have trusted videography partners I can recommend! 

WHAT KIND OF IMAGES SHOULD WE EXPECT? WHAT’S YOUR EDITING AND SHOOTING STYLE?

I shoot about 85% documentary-style (ie no prompts or poses, pure authentic documentation) throughout your day using story-telling leaning imagery, and about 15% editorial / artful posing when the light and time allows for it (such as during portrait time, etc). For couples that are shy or specifically introverted, this allows plenty of room to breathe throughout your wedding day instead of an insistent pressure to be "cool", "trendy", or "perfect". Expect small moments and details to be captured throughout your day with a lot less "posed" images, with space to actually experience your day. This is achieved by you placing your trust in me throughout our experience together, while keeping a willingness to truly be seen and an openness for out of the box ideas. My editing style is a 50/50 35mm film and digital hybrid, with matching film tones and grain, artful editorial posing inspired by album artwork and movement-lead prompts, and a sprinkle of "what grandma wants" for a timeless, well-rounded documentation of your day.   

DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH THE LGBTQAI+ COMMUNITY AND CAN YOU EDIT FOR DARKER SKIN TONES?

Absolutely, and not only are you welcome here, but you are celebrated: no matter who you are, who you love, or what you look like. Not only am I an inclusive vendor, but I have a ton of experience photographing couples of all types, shapes, sizes, colors, and backgrounds and I'd love for you to be one of them, too.
