Let me share a little secret—you don’t need a traditional wedding to have an incredible celebration or a deeply meaningful marriage. If the idea of a large guest list and months of stressful planning doesn’t feel like you, it might be time to choose something different: a celebration that is joyful, thoughtful, and centered on what truly matters.

This is your invitation to step beyond the expectations of what a wedding “should” look like and instead create a day that feels authentic, intentional, and entirely your own. A day that reflects your story, your values, and the way you love.

At Amelia Marie Photography, I’m here to document your elopement with care and intention—capturing both the quiet in-between moments and once-in-a-lifetime memories, so you can return to exactly how it all felt. 

Your elopement day, told your way.

An elopement is about experiencing the joy of being together in a way that feels deeply personal and uniquely your own—creating a wedding day that reflects your past and present together.






Whether it’s just the two of you or a small circle of your closest loved ones, your elopement can be shaped around what matters most. It’s a day that’s flexible and experience-focused, inviting you to slow down, be fully present, and soak in the moments that make your story meaningful.

your elopement day can be absolutely whatever you want it to be, without all the added stress and production of a bigger wedding.

An elopement is simply an intimate and authentic celebration of you as a couple.

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.
