The best part(s) of being an elopement photographer!

It’s hard to pinpoint just one part of being an elopement and wedding photographer that I love most! It’s such a privilege every time I get to document a couple’s wedding day and create once-in-a-lifetime moments with my clients. I love being able to explore beautiful new places and meet new people while creating meaningful art for my clients.

As a North Carolina native, I’m well versed with the landscape from the Blue Ridge to the coastline and love different parts of each area. I can work with couples to suggest the best locations for hiking elopements in the mountains or surfing on the coast. I lived in Boone while attending Appalachian State University and grew up going to the coast with my family in the summer, so it’s always a rewarding experience to lead couples out to my favorite overlooks along the Blue Ridge or to suggest the best doughnuts on the Outer Banks (Duck Donuts!).

Because of my own love of animals, I specialize in intimate weddings and elopements that include your pets! Is that because I love being the fun treat lady? Maybe. Pets are part of the family, and it’s always so much fun to include them in the photos. Another beauty about an elopement is that we can tailor your plans to fit your pets in as much or as little as is best for your situation.

Overall, wedding photography combines my love of fine art photography with documenting one of the most important events in your life. I’m driven by the satisfaction of helping clients pull off their dream wedding or elopement and providing timeless photos of the entire experience.
