Instagram gave us a real treat and we’ve been upgraded to being able to share 20 slides in a carousel instead of 10. Emily and Nico’s elopement at Sunrise Amphitheater had way too many sweet moments to fit into a 10 slide post, so this upgrade couldn’t have come at a better time!

So much of the elopement industry has shifted towards this idea of ditching traditions and has created this new little ‘box’ of what an elopement is “supposed to look like” and we don’t love that.
We’re just here to remind you that there are no rules for your elopement OR wedding experience as long as you and your partner are doing what makes you happy.
Still want to have a first look? We love it.
Still want to have a parent walk you down the ‘aisle’ even if it’s a hiking trail? We love it.
Still want to include family/guests while you exchange your vows? We love it.
We especially love that Hana and Jonathan chose an elopement experience that included the traditions that they loved, but still got to have the intimate elopement experience they were after.
Here are a few of our favorite previews from their day!

Stephanie and Eddie had the sweetest elopement experience earlier this week! They chose to start their day watching the sunrise at Lost Gulch before meeting up with their families (including their cute 14yo dog, Cody) for their ceremony at Sunrise Amphitheater!
Stephanie honored her late father with a framed photo of him in a director’s chair, which was such a special way to include him in their elopement.
Here are a few of our favorite photos from their day! So excited to share their video soon too!

Sadie and Adam knew they wanted an adventure, privacy and gorgeous views for their elopement experience so we chose one of our favorite and most epic mountain locations for their elopement! It’s always the best when couples choose and trust us with their day, especially when they’re planning from afar! These two made the trip out from Louisiana, so having postcard Colorado views to show off this beautiful state was a must!

Estes Park was the first place Hannah and Tyler went on vacation together and they knew they wanted to make it an annual tradition to come back and visit, so eloping to Rocky Mountain National Park was the perfect choice for their elopement experience! Also, how adorable is their son as the ring bearer?

Sunrise Amphitheater is one of our absolute favorite reservable spots for elopements and Erin & Bobby are our first couple in 2024 to get married there, so we were already excited, but their intimate wedding exceeded our expectations in all of the ways. It was the most perfect evening, the golden hour was the dreamiest and these two are the absolute sweetest!

Sarah and Dalton’s elopement goal was to simply enjoy each other’s presence and the beautiful scenery and GET MARRIED (of course)! Since their relationship started during the pandemic, they fell in love and grew together as individuals and as a couple, so it only made sense to keep their elopement sweet and simple with no guests!
Mother Nature decided to throw a bit of extra magic their way with a sun shower followed by a beautiful rainbow shortly after they finished up their ceremony - and it was the most perfect and unexpected thing for their elopement experience!

The story of their first date:
“We (like all good millennials) met online. Matt had asked Michelle out to a handful of concerts, but each time she was out of town. He persisted and finally picked a day when Michelle was free. Our first date was an afternoon at Dave and Busters, where Matt had a coupon. We played all the arcade games. Michelle rocked at connect-a four....until we switched to a basketball and hoops version. We gave all of our tickets to a pair of kids and made their day. We stuck around for an appetizer, and the waiter told Matt he must be doing a good job because Michelle was smiling a lot. And on our way back to the car, Matt told Michelle that she looked beautiful. We agreed we should definitely do that again.”
And the dates continued from there, eventually grew into traveling to National Parks together, getting engaged in Acadia National Park and then choosing to elope to Colorado to officially become husband and wife! Here is a little sneak peek from their beautiful elopement in Estes Park last Thursday!

A lot of what we share on our social channels is our true to life editing style, but the beauty of working with our squad is that we offer a variety of editing styles ranging from dark and moody to light and filmy!
We love that Sara and Lindsay opted for a moody edit for their photos! Here is a little preview of our favorite moments from their elopement at Garden of the Gods last week!

Even though we photograph elopements year-round, late May is typically the start of our “busy season”.
I love that Megan and Mike kicked off this exciting time of year with their beautiful elopement in Boulder last week and that they chose to include time at their Airbnb so they could document those finishing touches of getting ready and share a first look before driving up the mountain together! 🏔️

When Gracie and Morgan saw that one of their favorite bands was playing at red rocks and had already been talking about how they wanted a relaxed and simple elopement experience after getting engaged, eloping to Colorado from Arkansas was the perfect choice!
As a photographer, I’ve learned to ignore the forecast and flip a coin when it comes to predicting the weather out here, especially in the mountains! What did the forecast say, even just 24 hours before their elopement? Just a breeze! Reality? A blizzard, i70 closing down and a ‘winter’ wonderland… in Spring.
I was originally supposed to bring their flowers from the Boulder area and photograph their elopement, but when the storm rolled in I was so grateful to have such strong connections in the wedding community and my associate photographer, Gabrielle, stepped in to photograph their day and Maddie with Lady Sunshine was a true flower hero and crafted the most breathtaking bouquet and bout for them with only hours notice!
Through all the craziness, Gracie and Morgan remained steadfast, embraced the unexpected turn of events with smiles on their faces and had a playful, laughter filled elopement adventure in the fresh foot of snow!
