There are so many reasons to do a pre wedding or elopement adventure session when you decide to travel for your big day! Not only does it help you feel more comfortable and confident in front of my camera but it’s a great way to get to know the area!

Anna & Erik’s private 10 person elopement was absolutely magical. It wasn’t what they had planned, given the changes to their 150+ person wedding do to COVID-19, but they truly made the best with what was possible and I was so excited to help them create a day that was perfect for them. I feel so grateful to have been a part of their beautiful celebration journey in Boone, North Carolina.

I get so excited to help my clients plan their dream day — but today I wanted to chat about some beyond amazing options for eloping in Europe. When lived in Belgium I fell in LOVE! How could you not? Breathtaking architecture, stunning views & of course the FOOD.
