This guide is designed to help walk you through the experience, investment, and everything included when you hire me as your photographer who prioritizes candid storytelling, adventure, and genuine connection.
My approach is simple: create a seamless, stress-free experience so you can fully enjoy your day while I capture the moments you'll relive for the rest of your life. From intimate Colorado mountain ceremonies to beaches, deserts, and worldwide destinations, your love story deserves thoughtful planning and intentional documentation.
Here's where your dream day starts to come to life!
As an out of state bride, she also offered tips and recommendations during our wedding planning process that were so helpful! When researching photographers for our wedding, I was looking for someone who could capture color, fun, and adventure! Stacy's portfolio fit ever criteria.
These aren't photos you'll look at once and forget. These are the images that make you say:
"That was the best damn day of our lives."
I capture the loud moments, the quiet ones, the chaotic laughter, the windblown hair, the holy-sh*t-we're-getting-married looks, everything that makes your story yours.
Your legacy. Your joy. Your adventure.
All preserved so you can relive it for decades.
Your elopement shouldn't feel like a group project gone wrong. It should feel like:
"We woke up, held hands, and today we get to marry our favorite person, how freaking cool."
My packages are designed to give you clarity, options, and a big ol' YES this makes sense moment. Locations? Ideas? Planning help? Timeline? Nervous about lighting? Don't worry, I've got you.
You dream it. I break it down into real life magic.
Think of me as your adventure hype woman meets organizational wizard. You bring the love story I'll bring the "holy crap this is actually EASY" planning energy.
No stress-y timelines. No weird, stiff schedules. Just a smooth, fun intentional flow that lets you two be fully present while I handle the behind-the-scenes chaos like a pro who's done this a few hundred times.
Your only job: show up and soak it in.
You're not here for cookie cutter anything and same.
You get me 110%
The hype.
The humor.
The honesty.
The "I've got backup plans for my backup plans" energy.
I customize every single part of your experience from scouting locations to calming nerves to third wheeling your date night with a camera.
If it makes your day easier, more fun, or more YOU?
I'm on it before you even finish the sentence
Look... you have better things to do than stress over minute by minute planning. Like kissing, adventuring, laughing till your stomach hurts, or cracking open a celebratory drink at 9am because WHY NOT.
I'm the one who keeps the day flowing like butter, perfect lighting, zero awkwardness. Just vibes. Good ones.
You two get to be fully in the moment, while I navigate everything behind the scenes like a wedding day ninja in hiking boots.
Your elopement should feel like it was handcrafted by the universe just for you two, not stolen from Pinterest's leftovers.
You want vows on a cliff? Done.
Dancing in the desert at sunset? Absolutely.
Running into the ocean in your wedding clothes? Hell yes, I'll be right behind you with a camera and zero hesitation.
Your vision + my brain + a little bit of chaos = pure freakin' magic.

She is so sweet and down to earth. She executed the shots I absolutely wanted and then some and I love how vibrant her editing is. I would absolutely recommend her for your wedding or event. I get to look at our photos proudly everyday on display at our home and I don't regret it one bit!
LEARN MORE ABOUT ME
I'm the photographer who:
- hyped you up before you even get out of the car
- fixes your hair while also scouting the perfect light
- yells "YESSS THAT"S IT!" across the canyon
- climbs boulders, rolls in sand, sprints through fields
- and somehow still gets the shot and your good side
If you want a photographer who's as invested in your day as you are...
Congratulations, you found her.
Listen... if you're here for stiff poses and forced smiles, you might wanna turn back now. But if you're here for wind in you hair moments, laugh til you snot energy, dancing on rocks, running through sand, and saying "holy sh*t this is actually happening" then buckle UP because we're about to be best friends.
Why do I go so hard for my couples?
Because I genuinely freaking LOVE what I do.
I don't just show up, click a button, and leave. Absolutely not.
Your only job?
Show up ready to have the time of your freaking life.
I'll handle everything else, the vibe, the planning, the guidance, the chaos, the magic.
The Vibe Check.
This is where we make sure we're a hell yes for each other. We hop on a call, swap stories, talk about your dream day, and get real about what you actually want (not what Pinterest told you to want). No pressure. No awkward sales vibes. Just humans connecting and dreaming big.
If we vibe, we lock it in and start building something unforgettable.
The Dream Gets A Game Plan.
Now we turn your "what if we..." into "holy sh*t this is happening."
I help you:
- Pick locations that actually feel like you
- Build a timeline that leaves space to breath, laugh, cry, wander and soak it all in.
- Navigate permits, logistics, weather, and travel so nothing feels overwhelming.
This is where chaos turns into calm, and the adventure starts to feel real.
Your Day, Your Way.
This is the part you'll remember forever.
No stiff posing. No forced moments. No weird energy.
Just you two doing your thing, laughing, holdings hands, getting emotional, running through waves, hiking to epic views, popping champagne, or dancing barefoot in the sand, while I quietly capture every real beautiful second.
You don't perform. You live it. I'll handle the rest.
Relive It All FOREVER.
After your day, I get to work turning everything into something you'll never stop rewatching.
You'll receive:
- A gallery full of emotional, cinematic, wildly you images
- Moments you forgot even happened
- The feeling of being back there every time you open it
This isn't about pretty photos. It's about having proof that you lived one of the best days of your life.
You're not planning a wedding. You're planning a "holy sh*t, we actually did this" kind of day. This isn't about checking boxes. It's about chasing a feeling. I don't just show up with a camera. I help you build a day that feels like a story you'll tell forever. The kind your friends wish they were there for and your future selves will still get chills watching back.
I use top-of-the-line equipment and have honed my technical skills to ensure that every shot is of the highest quality, even in challenging conditions.
From florals to hair and makeup to private chefs, I connect you with vendors who specialize in elopements and intimate experiences, not large traditional weddings.
Why this matters:
You avoid mismatched vibes, flaky vendors, and unnecessary stress. Everything stays aligned with your vision.
I take the time to learn who you are. Your comfort level, personalities, what excites you, and how you want your day to feel. This shapes everything from location suggestions to how I guide you during photos.
Why this matters:
Your photos feel real and effortless because the experience is built around you, not a template.
Your timeline is built around natural light, movement, and breathing room, not rigid schedules. Whether that includes hiking, Jeeping, sunset vows, or simply slowing down, your day flows naturally without feeling rushed.
Why this matters:
You get to be present. No stress. No clock watching. Just a day that unfolds intentionally.
I arrive 2 or 3 days before your elopement to personally scout your chosen location. This means checking lighting at different times of day, assessing weather patterns, trail conditions, crowd levels, and identifying backup spots if needed.
Why this matters:
You're not guessing. You're not relying on Google images. You're stepping into a location that's already been thoughtfully planned for your exact day.
CREATE MY DREAM ELOPEMENT
For the couples who want the heart of their story captured without losing the intimacy of what makes an elopement so special. Half day elopement coverage is for the couples who want to slow down and soak in what matters most.
The deep breath before you see each other, the quiet excitement while getting ready somewhere tucked into the mountains, a cozy Airbnb, or overlooking a view that somehow still doesn't feel real. The butterflies. The anticipation. The little moments where it finally starts sinking in:
Today... we got marry our best friend.
This is enough time to intentionally document the emotional core of your day. Your vows whispered into the wind, the tears you didn't expect. The way your hands instinctively reach out for each other after the ceremony because suddenly... this feels real.
Time for portraits that don't feel stiff or posed but instead feel like the two of you simply existing together in this once-in-a-lifetime moment. Running through wildflowers. Standing on a mountaintop in complete silence. Laughing because the wind is aggressively ruining your hair and somehow you couldn't care lees.

Because your wedding day doesn't have to be long to be unforgettable. Sometimes that smallest moments carry the deepest meaning.

Writing letters to each other while nerves are building. Sharing coffee before heading into the mountains. The excitement of driving to your ceremony location knowing something life-changing is about to happen.
Maybe it's hiking to a view. Maybe it's popping champagne after your vows. Maybe it's off-roading deep into the mountains, sharing a picnic, watching sunset over alpine lakes. or ending the evening wrapped in blankets under the stars.
And in between all of it?
The tiny moments. The way your partner looks at you when you aren't paying attention. The deep exhale after saying your vows. The quiet hand squeeze that says everything without words. The "HOLY CRAP" we actually did this feeling.
Full day elopement coverage allows your story to unfold naturally, not rushed, not overly curated but beautifully and honestly. Because eloping isn't about escaping tradition. It's about creating intention and focusing on just the two of you.
For the couples who believe their wedding story deserves more than one chapter. Some stories are simply too meaningful to squeeze into one day. This experience is for the couples who want to fully immerse themselves in the adventure, emotion, and magic of their wedding without feeling rushed by sunsets, timelines. or pressure.
Maybe one day is intentional and intimate. Slow morning energy. A private vow exchange somewhere breathtaking. Exploring epic landscapes without worrying about losing daylight. Taking your time. Actually being present. No rushing from one thing to the next.
Just space to feel it all.
Then day two becomes celebration. A second location. An adventure session. A Jeep ride through mountain passes. A sunrise hike. Dinner with the people you love most. Champagne by a campfire. Star photos in the middle of nowhere.
The freedom to create a wedding experience that feels entirely yours.
Because here's the truth:
Some of the most meaningful moments happen when you finally stop watching the clock. Multi day coverage creates space for spontaneity, weather flexibility, multiple locations, deeper storytelling, and moments that don't feel forced.
