Mountain Views. No Hiking Required.
Colorado Elopement
Photographer & Planner
Every package and every price, in your inbox within a day. No call first.
You've always known that saying "I do" in front of hundreds is a hard no. And you want to elope in Colorado’s mountains.
But, and this is the big but, you don't want to suffer through logistics hell to get there. Permits. Timelines. "What do I even wear on a rocky trail in a dress?"
You've probably had four photographer tabs open for a month now. Scrolling, closing them, wondering if any of these people would actually be fun to spend eight hours in a car with.
You want a Colorado elopement photographer who knows this state, handles the boring parts, and makes the whole thing fun instead of stressful.
That's kinda the entire point, right?
The Views Are Real. The Trailhead Is Optional.
Here's the secret nobody in the elopement industry wants to say out loud: some of the best views in Colorado are a short walk from where you park.
Alpine lakes in the San Juans. Golden hour above Crested Butte. Waterfalls outside Ouray you can hear from the car. I’ve lived on the Western Slope. I know which overlooks feel like a summit and which "easy trails" are secretly three miles of switchbacks (looking at you, every trail app).
Wear the dress. Bring your grandma. Bring the dog. Nobody needs trekking poles.See where you can elope without hiking →

Straight From My Couples
The day happens once either way.
Ten years from now you're not going to remember the permit paperwork or which trail app lied to you. You're going to pull up the gallery on a random Tuesday and want to feel like you were actually there.
What you actually walk away with
A day that felt like yours.
Photos where you look like people, not a Pinterest board.
A very specific memory of eating something greasy in the car at 6am that you'll bring up for the rest of your lives.
And a marriage, which was technically the whole point.
Howdy!
I’m Kimberly.
Never dreamed of your big beautiful wedding day?
Neither Did I.
In fact, I never wanted to get married at all. But life happened and I met Keith off of a dating app and could finally imagine spending the rest of my life with my best friend. We drove a 4×4 road in our sweatpants to go get married, and then wrote the goofiest vows to read in front of our loved ones.
Point is, I’ve been the eloping couple, not just the vendor. I’ve spent 10+ years photographing these mountains and I'm here to help you plan a day you wouldn't change a single thing about.
Based in Colorado, wandering across the west.

Jeeps, rainy picnics, grandmas at 11,000 feet.
Here's how these actually went down.
Questions Everyone Asks
-
Seriously. Most of my locations are a short walk from parking. If you want to do an easy hike, great, I own boots. If you want to do a hard hike, great, I know some amazing photographers I can refer you to.
-
Yes and absolutely yes. Most locations work for a handful of guests, and dogs are honorary wedding party.
-
Colorado lets you marry yourselves. No officiant, no witnesses. It's called self solemnization and it's the best kept secret in the state.
-
Weekends and fall dates go 6 - 12 months out. Winter is more flexible (and criminally underrated).
-
Packages start at $5,000, everything included. Full breakdown in the pricing guide.
Overthinking It?
