And the best part, you don't have to do it alone. With years of elopements under my belt, I’ll handle the details so you can focus on what matters most
I know what it's like to wonder if your wedding day will truly reflect you as a couple. When my partner and I planned our wedding, we gave into pressures and missed out on what we loved most: the outdoors and adventure.
You can have a day you’ll look back on and say, ‘This was everything we dreamed of.’
Being fully present with each other in a place that feels like home
I'm a retired engineer turned adventure elopement photographer. I traded calculations for trail maps and church weddings for mountaintop vows because I believe there is no better feeling than being immersed in nature with the one you love most.
Whether you’re dreaming of a quiet moment in the woods or an epic sunrise hike, I’m here to help you ditch the cookie-cutter wedding and craft a day that’s authentic, meaningful, and totally stress-free. Think of me as your guide, problem solver, and biggest fan all rolled into one.
Honoring the Outdoors
All Love is Welcome
Authenticity and Good Vibes Only
No Adventure Too Big or Too Small
With my time spent in college ministry I honed the art of truly listening and understanding people’s stories. I'm about creating a space where you feel valued and free to be yourselves, especially if you’ve ever felt like you don’t "fit the mold." You're not just clients to me; you're friends with a story worth telling, and I'm here to tell it right.
A lot of photographers will talk about their style being cinematic, warm, bright and airy, etc. I don't give a s*** about that. My style is keeping it real. I’m all about capturing the in-between, the candid, and the real—the YOU moments. With me, you’ll walk away with photos that don’t just look great—they’ll feel like you.
As a former engineer turned full-time elopement photographer, I bring precision and problem-solving to your big day. From managing unpredictable trail conditions to ensuring every detail aligns with your vision, I’ve got the degree to handle it all, so you can focus on what matters most—your love story.
You need someone who can expertly guide you through the details of choosing a location, understanding the terrain, and feeling prepared. With my outdoor expertise, I'll help you focus on the experience rather than the logistics.
I'll take you to places you won't find on Google or Instagram.
"He took the time to get to know us as a couple by conducting multiple virtual meetings and really deep diving into our love story. This helped us when it came to wedding day because we felt so comfortable with him!"
-Allie and Howard-
"Bryan practically bottled up the whole vibe of our day. It was like hanging with an old friend!"
-Kevin and Cody-
"He really puts his heart into what he does and I could not recommend him enough!"
-Tammy and Stuart-
Sure, you could just have a quick two hour elopement with a ceremony, some portraits, and family photos. But that's boring!
Your relationship has depth to it, an exciting story to tell! This is your chance to honor that and have a day that's all about you. A full day worth the experience and living your best lives.
Without someone who specializes in adventure elopements, you might end up with a wedding day that feels more like a traditional event than the meaningful, intimate experience you’ve dreamed of. I’ll guide you to create a wedding day that reflects who you truly are—authentic, adventurous, and full of heart, all without the stress or compromises.

When it comes to capturing your elopement story, most of my couples opt for 6-12 hours of coverage. In our free consultation call, we'll dream together, envisioning the perfect way to tell your unique tale. And guess what? You can absolutely add more hours later on!
Your day can include whomever you would like or it can be just the two of you! If you do include guests, I ask that the guest list be kept under 25 people to keep the experience intimate. Note that National Parks have capacity limitations that we will need to work within.
I love to embrace a good rainy elopement day! It can honestly add a touch of adventure to your love story. Rain makes colors pop, and the bonus? Less crowds to share your special day. If the weather takes an unexpected turn, don't worry—I'll have backup plans and options in place. We'll be ready for anything Mother Nature throws our way.
No, hiking is not a prerequisite to having the best elopement day. Adventure, the outdoors, and love is different for everyone, and your elopement day should reflect that!
I capture my couples’ elopements with a documentary, story-telling approach. As we spend the day together, my mission is to make you feel calm and comfortable, all while capturing the genuine moments as they unfold. When it comes to posing, forget the stiffness—I'm all about prompts that feel natural, bringing out your best side effortlessly.

Here's a truth I wholeheartedly believe: Your elopement day is YOUR wedding day, filled with all the details and cherished memories that YOU WANT to have. Whether it's just the two of you or surrounded by others, your elopement day is meant to be authentically and completely yours. No two elopements are the same and I'm here to help guide you to create a day that reflects your love in every beautiful detail!
