Congratulations on choosing to blaze your own trail and go on the wedding adventure of your dreams!

Choosing to elope means that there are no rules and you have complete freedom to decide where, when, and HOW you choose to celebrate your partnership.

Want to spend your day skiing in the mountains of Vermont and then hitting up the breweries? Or perhaps hiking through your favorite National Park in Arizona is more your speed – exploring all the peaks and valleys together and watching the sun set over the desert.

Whatever your perfect elopement day looks like, you’ve got to start somewhere!

As your adventure elopement photographer and planner, I’m here to give you all the tips to start planning the most epic day together and turning your vision into reality!

Hi, I’m Amelia — your adventure elopement and wedding photographer for couples who want their celebration to feel authentic, honest, and deeply joyful.

I grew up in the Green Mountains of Vermont, where my childhood was spent barefoot in the garden or wandering through the woods, sap and pine needles clinging to my feet. Being immersed in nature from such a young age shaped how I see the world — and eventually, how I photograph it.

My approach is rooted in storytelling and connection. I focus less on stiff poses and perfection, and more on creating space for you to be fully present with each other. Whether you’re an avid thrill-seeker or someone who simply loves slow, intentional walks through the woods, an adventure elopement or wedding is really about the simplicity and honesty of celebrating in a way that feels true to you — grounded in love, nature, and the people who make it all meaningful.
