Calling all cool couples who want a cozy, outdoorsy wedding spent with their favorite people (...and probably their dogs). Regardless if you’re calling it a micro wedding or an adventure elopement, planning for the Blue Ridge Mountains in Asheville or wildflowers in Crested Butte, I’m here for it all.
Everywhere I go, I'm desperate to keep a piece of the adventure. I never thought it was possible until I started documenting and photographing every trip: horse trekking in Mongolia, glacier hiking in Patagonia, and riding a donkey in Santorini.
All of these different landscapes made me feel so much and I realized I could bring these epic places home with me through my photos.
You’re probably here because you also feel a sense of wonder and peace when you’re in nature and for you, it just makes sense to get married in the outdoors.
You want photos that capture how you felt and the incredible landscape where you exchanged your vows.
C’mon I know you’ve been thinking about it! In the back of your mind there’s a list of someday-adventures and wouldn’t-it-be-cool-if ideas. It’s been waiting for the ‘right time’...where you have vacation days saved… the money set-aside… a special occasion. THIS IS IT, FRIEND.
Here’s your round trip permission slip to: be bold, pack your bags, and experience life together in ways you haven’t before. And I’ll be right alongside you, stoked as ever, documenting it all, either in North Carolina, Colorado or beyond.

With me, you won’t ever be standing about, smiling at the camera for an hour (woof, that sounds hella boring for the both of us)!
YES, our first five minutes of shooting will be a little awkward. Lean into the nervous laughter as I teach you what to do with your hands (an issue as old as time) and hype you up until you feel on top of the world.
It’s crazy how quickly you’ll go from overtly aware of the slightest movement, to totally forgetting I exist. I’ll maintain that space as I continue to take photos – your focus will stay on each other and soaking up the views.
We’ve been photographed a time or two…so I get what it feels like to be in front of the camera too!
I was traveling for weddings, so Jake worked remotely and took charge of lugging suitcases and driving.
I needed a second shooter when I started, so I handed him a camera. Jake was a natural.
I saw couples wrestling with how to balance a peaceful day with bringing their crazy dogs along. Jake took the leashes and (once or twice) fell in love with their fur babies.
You might not meet him, but you’ll definitely hear about him. It’s an honor to be married to him.
