i’m the person behind the camera
I’ll guide you through the entire process.
Although I haven't been married myself, I'd like to think that over the past few years of documenting well over 50+ weddings it's safe to say that I may know a thing or two about planning a wedding. I've gone through a lot of trial and error so that you don't have to. I'm here to make the day go as smooth and easy as possible so that you can focus on enjoying the day while I'm there to capture it.
01. SHOULD YOU ELOPE?
It's becoming more and more popular and with reason. Intimacy, adventure and exploration. If a big wedding just doesn't feel like you and you want to just focus on your love without having anyone else around, maybe eloping is for you.
02. PICK A LOCATION
Whether it's a local venue in your hometown or a destination place in a foreign country, location should be one of the first things that you plan. Venues get booked by people over a year in advance so if you want a specific place for a specific date, book it sooner than later.
03. REGION SEASON
Every region has an ideal travel time. Depending on where you plan on going and certain times, it may be typhoon season, winter full of snowstorms, or excessive rainfall. Know what kind of mood you want for your photos and what weather type would best suite it.
04. GUEST LIST
Do you want to elope and have only you and your partner with just me and an officiant present? Or would you prefer to party all night with your friends and family? Having an idea of a guest count is important in planning to know how to budget the day accordingly.
05. LOGISTICS & TIMELINE
Do you need a reservation to get into this park? How long is the hike to the specific location? What time will the sun be setting that day? How much time should you allot for portraits and family photos? There's a lot of details that you don't think about until it's too late sometimes. Don't worry, that's why I'm here to help.
06. LEGAL DETAILS
All of the nitty gritty stuff. Things like permits, contracts and everything in between. We'll go over it all.
FAQ
01/03
I. Are the travel expenses included in your packages or covered additionally?
As of right now, they are not but no worries! We can talk all about that whenever you fill out my contact form. :)
II. What if we want something more extreme for our elopement (hiking, diving, etc)?
The more extreme the better, I'm for it ALL!
III. We want to include our dog into the elopement ceremony and photos, is that okay?
Would I say no to leaving your child out of family photos? As a dog mom myself and an avid animal lover, how could I possibly say no? They're part of the fam.
IV. How long does it take to receive the photos after my wedding/elopement and how will those be delivered?
You'll receive a sneak peak photo set within 72 hours of the big day and the entire gallery will be delivered within 8 weeks. All photos will be sent via email through Pixieset, an online downloadable gallery.
V. Do you offer specials on weddings/elopements in your travel bucket list?
Yes! If you're planning on tying the knot in Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, Alaska, Mexico, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Bora Bora, Iceland, Italy, Sweden, Southeast Asia, Africa or Australia please let me know!
