We weren’t supposed to even go to this location.

The plan was to drive up to hurricane ridge and have a picnic looking out over the mile and miles of mountains. But snow wasn’t done for the season and the week before some boulders fell and caused a blockage on the road up to the ridge. We watched weather and national park notifications every day leading up to Destiny and Christian’s elopement day but no luck. But we had backup locations planned on our first location planning meeting that they loved that we could shift to if needed.

The day before their elopement day the road was still blocked so we pivoted our day to have their picnic in lake crescent instead. And wow did it show OFF. The sun came out, the view was unreal and the night was perfect.

This is one of the many reasons a good elopement photographer is important on your day. Not only do I show up and take photos but we have multiple meetings beforehand to prepare - planning out locations, permits, timelines and backup options. I know the seasons, permit rules and will always research closures, weather, best times to go, etc. as the day gets close to make sure we are prepared!

You shouldn’t have to worry about a thing on your elopement day except marrying the love of your life 🫶🏼

These two met at an emo’s night in Corpus Christi back 6 years ago while Destiny was living in California but home visiting family in Texas. They hit it off and started talking, visiting back and forth a couple times before Destiny moved back home. Shortly after living in Texas, Christian landed an internship in Seattle and they packed up and drove with their two pups to the PNW for the summer. They ended up moving there permanately shortly after and fell in LOVE with it.

Eloping was always their plan and after falling in love with Washington so much they chose to say I do in some very special places to them. Their dream was to have their dogs be their witnesses but sadly, their girl Leia passed away last year from cancer. I read that and my heart broke. Destiny loved Leia like I loved Jack and I just knew I NEEDED to shoot their wedding to honor her as much as I could for them. They chose to say their vows on a beach they camped at when they first moved to Washington with the pups. Leia loved this spot so it was only fitting to do their vows there in her memory.

We then explored all over Olympic National Park hitting the Hoh Rainforest (one of my all time faves) and ending with a picnic at Lake Crescent. The original plan was to drive up to Hurricane Ridge but the snow, clouds and road closures changed our plans a little bit (even though they opened it up literally right as we started driving to our backup plan but we didn’t have time at that point). But that’s something I love about elopements - if things have to change or plans get messed up you can easily alter them day of if needed!

Destiny & Christian are some of the sweetest, most thoughtful people and spending the day with them was absolutely perfect. When they inquired for me to shoot their elopement I knew they were my people. Their love for the outdoors, exploring, hiking, their dogs and each other was just so evident and it was an HONOR to shoot their day.

& I can’t think of a better way to spend Earth Day than shooting an elopement in one of the most stunning National Parks in the US. 🌎🫶🏼

To follow my couples through so many seasons and milestones is the greatest joy of my life. I got to photograph these two’s wedding 2.5 years ago, then their anniversary a year later, and last month I had the honor of photographing their maternity pictures as their sweet family grows. I can’t put into words what it means to be invited into my clients lives like this and to get to capture such life changing seasons for them. I can’t help but think about the fact that the pictures I take will be looked back on in 50 years by parents, children, grandchildren and maybe even great grandchildren and tell the story of their lives. That fact will never not stop me in my tracks and make my eyes tear up. What an honor to be able to freeze such important memories in time for people. 🥹🫶🏼

Reminiscing on one of my favorite places on earth today & had to post a little reminder that I’ll be back in Italy (and a few other spots in Europe) this fall and I have a few spots open for weddings, elopements, and& sessions.

& if you’ve been dreaming about an elopement in the Dolomites… this is your sign.

Since I’ll already be out there, I’m waiving travel fees + taking $500 off for anyone who books while I’m there!!

It’s probably the most beautiful place I’ve ever been and I would LOVE to shoot your day out there!

Either shoot me a DM or fill out an inquiry on my website for dates & let’s plan 🫶🏼✈️🇮🇹

Did you know this venue existed in Texas?

I didn’t until Cami and Jeremiah inquired with me for their new years day wedding here. I started researching for their wedding day and got there early to scout it out and fell in love.d i It is SO unique and perfectttt for micro weddings or elopements.

Glamping in beautiful safari tents, a gorgeous cliffside overlook onto the river below, 96 acres to explore, and a stunning reception space. It felt like we were in Africa, not the hill country of Texas & I am so here for that.

From someone who loves traveling the world and destination weddings these spots right here in Texas are my FAVORITE for weddings closer to home with that destination feel.

I am obsessed and ready to go back sooo if you’re dreaming of something like this, let’s plan it!!
