“Erika totally empowered us to plan the day exactly how we wanted it and turned our dream elopement into a reality. Erika perfectly captured our relationship, individuality, and the unreal mountain top views.”

 
 
 

Having a small wedding doesn’t mean you’re getting less of an experience.

You’re simply making room for more.

More intentional details, less fluff.
More connections, less people. 
More treetops, less noise. 
More bliss, less obligation.

Less tradition…stress… everything that doesn’t feel like you, MORE JOY. MORE YOU.

Your photos should feel like you.

“Going through these photos immediately took us back to our best day. You captured us, our family, and our pups so beautifully.”

 
 
 
 

Can you see it?

Getting ready in a cabin nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Exchanging your vows with your parents standing near by as the creek trickles next to you. Your dogs are running back and forth in their flower crowns. After cutting the cake with your family, you two head off alone for sunset along the parkway. Getting lost in bliss, each other, and the golden light for hours. Once the sun slips below the horizon you head back for dinner prepared by a private chef in your airbnb.

Sounds incredible, right?

Well this day wasn’t dreamed up by me. It was planned and lived wholeheartedly by Anna and Tim.
