We’ll focus on your feelings > photos

I believe with all of my heart that elopements, at their core, aren’t about the photos. They’re about having a special experience with your partner as you commit to a lifetime together. My photography style emphasizes living it up on the best damn day of your life, so I won’t ask you to pause for photos every other second. I’ll help you focus on being present in each moment so you can create real, deeply intimate memories, and I’ll be there, camera in hand, to capture it all.

“We were already excited for the big day, but the end results were beyond my wildest dreams … stunning, magical, and epic are just a few words that I would use to describe our wedding photos.”

My wedding day would not have been the same without Jen. When you’re eloping, your photographer is also your entire guest list, the only witness, and day-of coordinator; having someone you vibe with is essential. Jen has perfected the art of being present and engaged, but then fading into the background to give us intimate moments alone. After she sent over the initial locations we were already excited for the big day, but the end results were beyond my wildest dreams … stunning, magical, and epic are just a few words that I would use to describe our wedding photos. Jen is an amazing person, adventurous soul, photography wizard, and a wonderful addition to any special day.

Meet your elopement photographer

Photographing wild weddings is my happy place

Hey, I’m Jen – a dog-loving, nature-obsessed, expert-level elopement photographer and the face behind the camera. I’m passionate about connecting with the natural world around us, and have always felt drawn to living life by my own rules. Now, I’m committed to helping crazy-in-love couples do the same. There’s no one-size-fits-all wedding experience, and I’m here to take down the idea that you need some big, stuffy wedding to make other people happy. If you’re looking to create an experience that feels intentional, bold, and truly exciting, I think we’re a perfect match.

“From starting at 4 am to catch the sunrise to securing us the best ceremony spot in all of Rocky Mountain National Park, Jen was absolutely instrumental in making our day the best day ever.

For our elopement, we wanted 3 things: to focus on our love of adventure and each other, for our loved ones to share in our special moment, and for some awesome photos to look back on when we’re old and gray. We got all three, and boy, did Jen deliver on the epic photos! From starting at 4 am to catch the sunrise to securing us the best ceremony spot in all of Rocky Mountain National Park, Jen was absolutely instrumental in making our day the best day ever. She has a great blend of being open to suggestions and knowing exactly how to execute with masterful talent. She was able to capture our energy and made us feel like we were being photographed by a friend with a camera
