Elopement & wedding pricing

Whether you are planning a relaxed ceremony with close friends and family in the mountains or a full weekend celebration - I'm here to help you plan every detail along the way and capture every second of your love. 

I take a limited number of larger weddings (50+ guests) a year, and specialize in new england elopements. if you think I'd be a good fit for your larger wedding, please reach out! 

AUTHENTIC. CANDID. STORYTELLING

my approach:

4 things you should know about choosing me as your elopement photographer:

1) My goal is to give my couples 110% throughout the entire process and help in any way I can. To do this, I take only 15 weddings and elopements a year. You deserve to have someone who is fully invested in you and your day!

2) Traveling and exploring new places if my biggest passion in life. From my travels I've created lists to share with my couples of amazing elopement locations, as well as vendors, lodging & more.

3) My goal is to make sure the day is stress free and fun. Weddings can be stressful but they don't have to (and shouldn't be!) I capture the day in an authentic, candid way without making it feel like a big all-day photoshoot.

4) I care about our beautiful planet! Practicing Leave No Trace & outdoor ethics is an important during all of my elopements.

Book your day

Absolutely! This is my favorite part about my job! I've spent countless hours scouting hidden spots and researching the best spots for your intimate ceremony! Most of my couples don't even have a specific spot picked out so once you book me I'm happy to send you tons of location ideas and help you find the perfect spot for you guys!
I like to encourage my couples to consider choosing a place that's meaningful to them instead of the most popular tourist attractions.

I'M NOT SURE WHERE WE WANT TO ELOPE, CAN YOU HELP US?

15 ; I value providing my couples with the intentional time that they deserve and need. In order to best serve my couples it's important for me to limit the number of weddings I take on per year.


How many weddings do you normally take on per year?


I make it super simple. I require a $1,000 retainer and signed contract to secure your wedding date on my calendar.

WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK?


frequently asked questions

For engagements and couples sessions I deliver photos within 2 weeks. For weddings and elopements, you'll receive your photos within 8-10 weeks with some sneak peeks along the way!

These will be the only memories you have to look back on your day for the rest of your lives, so I like to take my time and make sure I deliver a gallery you'll love for years to come! I like to encourage my couples to consider choosing a place that's meaningful to them instead of the most popular tourist attractions.

WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?

Sure thing, $1000 of the total balance is due at booking and is considered your retainer. The remaining balance can be split up into 2, 3 or 4 payments. Your final payment is due two months prior to your event date.


Do you offer payment schedules?

I go out of my way to make the experience of being photographed as comfortable and natural as possible. I shoot with as little equipment as I possibly can, and usually by myself. I make sure you never feel like you’re on display, or that it’s a huge awkward production of lights, light stands, and assistants everywhere. It’s just me, you, my camera, and a few lenses. I do have plenty of backup equipment of course.
