If you didn’t know already, I’ve been a pole dancer and circus artist for 6+ years, so when I heard about this concept for a strip club elopement, I just had to photograph it. We spent the morning at Shotgun Willie’s in Denver, CO, a grungy dive joint off Colorado Blvd. It was the perfect setting for the raunchy, spicy setting and I just couldn’t get enough.

The session was inspired by the shotgun weddings of Vegas, with playboy inspired details injected into the setting to add the extra spice to an already sexy as hell setting for a strip club elopement.

And if you’re wondering if your idea for your engagement photos or Colorado elopement is too out of the box, you’re in the right place… because it’s not, at least around here. I spend an enormous amount of time personalizing your elopement and session to you, and ensuring we run through ideas that are unique to you, and really let you shine as a couple and as individuals. It’s a bit of a far cry from the regular bohemian, wide brimmed hat girlies that make up the majority of the wedding industry and most of the inspiration you’ll see online. If that means a session in a strip club, I’m fucking down. Let your freak flag fly, I’m in.
