Elopements
Traditional attire? Sure..
Traditional stress? Absolutely not.
Elopements aren’t about running away—they’re about running toward what matters most: each other, the intimacy of the moment, and the beauty of your connection.
It’s about saying “yes” to an experience that reflects your love, without distractions or expectations. Whether it’s barefoot on the shores of Holland, MI, whispering vows under a canopy of trees in a hidden Michigan forest, or standing on the grounds of a private estate, I’m here to capture every raw, unscripted moment.
Your elopement should feel personal, free from the constraints of tradition and convention. It's about you two, the essence of your relationship, and creating a day that is entirely yours.
From quiet, intimate exchanges to laughter shared between two souls in love, I’ll preserve the authenticity of your celebration in every frame.

An elopement is a small, intimate wedding that focuses on you and your partner without the stress of a large celebration. It’s about prioritizing your connection and creating a personalized experience. You can elope anywhere—whether it's on a beach, in a forest, at a scenic overlook, or even your backyard—and I’m here to capture the entire journey.
What is an elopement?
Next question
Elopements give you the freedom to focus solely on what matters most: your love for each other. Without the pressure of catering to a large guest list or planning a big event, you’re free to create a day that’s truly personal and meaningful. Plus, elopements are often more relaxed and less stressful, allowing you to enjoy every moment fully.
Why should we choose an elopement over a traditional wedding?
Next question
While you don’t need a traditional wedding planner, it’s helpful to have some support when it comes to logistics and timing. I can help with crafting a relaxed timeline and providing guidance on how to make the day flow smoothly. If needed, I can recommend vendors like officiants, florists, or hair and makeup artists as well.
