Below are Some of my Favorite moments from Past Elopements
“My husband and I are not ones to know how to pose for the photos. She told us to be natural and captured STUNNING photos.”
~ Moira & Jake
“The best decision we ever made, besides deciding to elope, was choosing Shannon as our photographer for our adventure elopement. Five stars does not even seem fitting for this review; I’d give a million stars if I could.”
~ Holly & Malcolm
“We were relaxed and comfortable the entire day. The photographs she provided exceeded our expectations, capturing both planned and spontaneous moments beautifully. Overall, we cannot recommend Shannon enough. She was on top of her game all day and is a wonderful human to spend the day with. “
~ Katie & Matt
“Her attention to detail was impeccable—she captured the most intimate, candid moments as well as the grand, beautiful shots we had dreamed of.”
~ Sasha & Hang
So How do we get photos like these?
It’s all in the planning. We work together to build an experience that feels true to your story, encompassing the activities and landscapes that feel right for you. Then, we put together a timeline that leaves time for you to enjoy your wedding day. Some of my couples come to me with many of the details figured out, but most lean on me for guidance to help design their experience.
