By now, you’ve probably realized that eloping in Utah is equal parts exciting and a little what the hell do we do next? You’re probably up late, deep in a Google rabbit hole, trying to figure out how to pick the perfect red rock backdrop or mountain overlook. Then there’s the whole permit thing… and what time of day even is best to elope? Good news, you’ve got me now. Your local Utah girl, camera in hand, and ready to make this easy.
I’ve traveled to eight countries (and counting!), so whether we’re in Zion or across the globe, I’m always up for the next adventure.
Fun fact: I’m a licensed hairstylist turned photographer. So when I say I know how to keep a veil in place, I really mean it.

location selection depends on your vision, adventure level, and photography style. I’ll help you scout spots—from iconic red-rock formations to secluded mountain overlooks—so you end up somewhere that matches your love story and aesthetic.
How do we choose the right location?
Absolutely. Some couples keep it just the two of them, others bring a small crew. Either way, we’ll make sure everyone fits into the adventure—and the photos. Some locations have limits on the number of people allowed.
Can we bring a few guests?
The key is to relax, be yourselves, and enjoy the experience. I specialize in candid, organic photography that captures your connection and the beauty of your surroundings. You’ll get photos that feel real, timeless, and stunning.
How do we get natural, authentic photos?
That depends on your vibe! Packages range from quick cliffside “I do” moments to full-day adventures. Think epic sunset photos, mountain views , and zero rushing.
How long does a typical elopement take?
Utah weather can be wild—but that’s part of the fun. I’ll help you plan backup locations and times, and sometimes a little mist just makes the photos even more legendary.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Yep! Most public lands require a permit. Don’t worry—I’ll help you figure out which ones and how to get them so you can focus on looking hot as hell instead of paperwork.
