Colorado Elopement Photographer & Planner
a wedding day that prioritizes you.
epic views. good vibes.
Your Adventure is Out There
just waiting to happen.
The sort of adventure that’ll show up in memories and stories that you’ll be sharing for ages. A time where the whole world revolved around you two being together and doing what you love. In a badass slice of mother nature that was all YOURS.
Anytime someone sees your photos they’ll be in total disbelief and you’ll get to say, “Yeah, that was us on our wedding day. Crazy, right!?"
Now all you need is...
A roadmap to help you get there
And images that will bring you back
"Sam goes beyond just snapping pictures; she becomes part of the experience. I vividly recall the laughs we shared, creating precious moments, and I'm immensely grateful it was Sam by my side."

IT TAKES REAL PLANNING TO ENSURE YOU’RE AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME TO CAPTURE SURREAL MOMENTS
Navigating all of that in a way that feels stress-free, fun, and seamless requires an expert who knows the ins & outs of the ENTIRE elopement experience.
You know what’s even better?
Someone who’s lived through the pitfalls of calling off a wedding to elope instead and whose own photographer dropped the ball. And someone who's become full-blown-obsessed ever since with making sure couples' elopements exceed their wildest dreams x2, come hell or high water.
Hi, that someone would be me.
I'm Sam
Serving up zero‑regrets kind of wedding days
Total planning that's as personal and fun as eloping
I’ll help you through the WHOLE planning process. And no, that doesn’t look like a "How to Elope" guide that I send to you and then tell you to fend for yourself. I’m tailoring every. single. thing. to you from scratch. From the views and vendors, to how we’ll get there.
AND BADASS PICTURES THAT’LL MAKE YOU SAY "OH DAMN"
Being IN the larger-than-life experience you planned it may feel like a photo could never do it justice – but trust me, they WILL. I’ll make sure they bring you right back to the trail, those wild views and your love-packed moments.
Invest your heart into this day
and I'll match that energy
Everything leading up to and during your elopement will continue to shape how you feel about this experience for the rest of your life. That’s why I’m out here doing the most, making sure every detail is accounted for. That’s why I’m ready to travel hours, trek through snow and mud, or scurry up a boulder to make your photos happen.
"From the very start Sam was above and beyond any expectations, providing insight and guides for our locations, vendor ideas, help planning, everything…It felt more like spending the day with a friend and getting some pictures than feeling like a photo shoot.
Of all the decisions made for our elopement, starting by hiring Sam was the best one."

Elopement resources, adventures of past couples, & pictures of my dog
Ya know, the essentials
Around here, we don't discriminate against
beautiful destinations + good people
I’ll travel anywhere you want to elope, as long as y’all go about life treating others and nature with love and respect.
