You just got engaged (finally!)
But are bogged down in the details.
You want to include some of your favorite people, but you don't want the drama that certain friends or family members are sure to bring.
Maybe you come from a family who hasn't been present for you through life.
Maybe your friend group hasn't been there to support you in hard seasons.
Maybe you love them all, and want to include them, but you want this day to truly be about the two of you, no discractions.
Eloping gives you the opportunity to cut down your guest list to literally zero, or to include just a few of your favorite people. The crowd can be as small as you like, especially in Colorado where officiants aren't a requirement. You get the chance to make the day completely yours, no frills (unless you want them) no pressure (besides the altitude).
You have the opportunity to cultivate a day that fits you perfectly, whether you're dreaming about hiking to a stunning view, in the foothills, wandering on pearl street to visit the best local coffee shops, or sharing a picnic together beside an alpine lake, Boulder has so much to offer as an elopement location, and I'd love to design a day that's exactly what you're dreaming.
And honestly, that’s completely normal. I've been photographing couples for over a decade, and have lots of tricks up my sleeve to help you relax, have fun, and enjoy your elopement experience while preserving beautiful images from your day.
My biggest piece of advice? Don't pay attention to the camera.
Stop.
Take a deep breath.
Look into the eyes of the person you've chosen to spend the rest of your life with.
And enjoy the moment.
If you're comfortable and having fun it will show up all over your photos. And if it still feels intimidating, don't worry! I've got you, and a lot of prompts to help put you both at ease.
types limited to 10 people (photographer included) I got the opportunity to photograph something different than the big venue weddings I'd captured since 2014.
And I absolutely loved them. Paring down the number of people took so much pressure off of wedding days, there wasn't anyone to impress.
Just the people you love the most, and a lot of joy.
Although my own wedding wasn't tiny, I was inspired by these small celebrations to make other pieces of my wedding day more simple, and I love that choosing to elope removes most of the big venue expections.
It gives you the opportunity to celebrate in a way that feels true to you, and that truly brings you joy.
love small weddings! Some of my favorite celebrations happened in 2020, and with social gatherings of all
"We hired Stephanie for our engagement and wedding pictures.
She did an amazing job for both!
We initially hired her because we loved her style of photography but her listening ear, patience, and work ethic blew us away and kept us coming back for more.
10/10!"

She has been the person behind my wedding pictures, new born pictures with my first kid, holiday pictures and here soon new born pictures for my second kid.
She is so professional yet personable and works well with my blended family. Pictures always come out looking great.
Highly recommend!"

Stephanie has been with us through many seasons now, shooting our engagement photos, bridals, wedding, pregnant with our first, and family photos with our first and second kid.
She has also done my extended family photos, we love working with her. She carries joy in what she does and we always love what she captures!
I highly recommend her for your wedding, she made that important day feel so special, our photos from that day are something I look back at often.

I’ve worked with Stephanie many times over the years.
She has photographed some of my family’s most special memories.
Our very first session with her was for our engagement shoot.he made us feel so comfortable and the whole experience was really fun.
Since then she has photographed our maternity shoots, newborn pictures, and treasured family portraits. I’m so glad to have found a photographer we trust to get beautiful pictures and make the experience peaceful and fun.
