Hey hey! So this is it! You have finally decided to make things happen...And you have all of these feelings going on trying to plan these things.
It’s so amazing to be able to work with couples like the two of you! Someone who is incredibly excited about their elopement and just wants to make the most out of it!
I'm a huge believer in
Creating
Creating
Your elopement
Your way
Your way
Elopements are this special thing that is so incredibly intimate for one another it’s hard to compare it to anything else. It’s a day where you can be with closest friends and family, and share an amazing day with the one you love the most. To be able to celebrate with others and share your love for each other to the world. Eloping is this special thing and so are you.
And I am so happy that y’all have made this decision!
You are looking to share those intimate details with one another in your vows. Show the world how much you love and care for your partner. and share this beautiful event until the nights ends.
But by now, you have figured out that there are tons of moving parts that go into a wedding.
There is going to be stress, so it’s amazing that you found yourself here.
For you, I am more than a photographer. I'll be your planner, experience guide, hype-man, and friend through this process.
When we work together for your big day that’s exactly what we will do, work together. I am there to guide you on your day, help you with the planning process, be your friend and have an incredible adventure with you.
You know exactly what you want from your day, whether that’s an incredible party, packed with dancing and drinking and a beautiful ceremony to celebrate with friends..
Or eloping in a gorgeous setting where the wind messes your hair, an adventure is created and you go to sleep with mud on your shoes.
There is so much that goes into planning these things and I am here for you every step of the way. We can plan this together and make sure it’s what you are dreaming of.
This day should be for the two of you, exactly the way you want it. It should be authentic in the way it represents the two of you and to the love story you share together.
But honestly,
- Angel & Erin
From our engagement shoot to our wedding in the Dominican Republic, there is not one single picture we didn’t love! As someone that hates getting their pictures taken, Rafael made the whole experience so fun and so comfortable that I forgot we were doing a whole photo shoot sometimes. Can’t wait to find more excuses to have Rafael take our pictures again!!!
"There are no words to describe how incredible Rafael is...
Rafael and his wife joined us in Cabo, Mexico for our intimate wedding WEEKEND! They joined us and our group on every event of our trip. From venue tours, catamaran ride, wedding, after party. EVERYTHING.. They then delivered us with a video and pictures of the entire weekend. They truly captured each moment so when we look back it’s like we are there all over again. Working with them was such a joy. They made us feel comfortable and we’re so kind I can’t imagine anyone else for my big day!
"They truly captured each moment
- Kelsey & Tayte"
Rafael captured our engagement, wedding, and even our baby announcement photos. He has gone above and beyond for us on so many occasions. We have BEAUTIFUL photos that we will be able to cherish forever. Not only is he our photographer, but he is our friend. We recommend him to anybody that will listen. I can’t say enough good things about him and his sweet wife! He cares so much about his clients and his work. You can tell he puts a lot of time and effort into his craft.
"He captured our love and our story so perfectly.
- Meghan & Garrett"
There is so much that goes into planning an Elopement. As a photographer sometimes I'm wearing multiple hats to get the things we need done. So not only are we going to get these incredible photos of y’all, I also...
· Help you plan out your wedding however exactly you envision it
· Bring new and fresh ideas to a rather ‘traditional’ wedding day
· Design a timeline, checklist and other things that best suits your needs on your wedding day
· Send recommendations to amazing local vendors and small businesses to help out with anything you might need.
· Create moments throughout your day so that the two of you have the most incredible experience possible.
You can basically think of me as your elopement planner! With all of the years and experience I've built up, I can definitely show you the ins and outs of how to successfully plan your elopement or destination wedding!
I deliver an important “sneak peek” gallery of 15-20 images taken at different points of your day within 24 hours of getting that first kiss.
There aren’t many photographers that say that they can do that in a such a short turnaround time.
Why do I offer this?
I think it's incredibly important to be able to share your photos with friends an family! So instead of photos your aunt took on her 10 year old android phone, you will have these photos to share with everyone!
One more thing!
Let's get to the good stuff!
There is so much that goes into your day and I understand completely how stressful it can get.
I want to make every decision you have on your wedding to be an easy one. Whether you are planning a large wedding in a beautiful venue in hill country Texas. Or you decided on eloping at Taft Point in Yosemite National Park.
That is why I made my packages to just be easy.

One Photographer
Sneak Peek within 24-48 hours of your wedding day
Unlimited assistance with wedding planning, timeline, and vendors
Guidance, friendship and a heck of a time

Sound good to y'all?
Same here! I am just as excited about your wedding as well! And I can’t wait to share the day with the two of you!
But first, there are some things that need to be done!
Fill out the contact form and give me as much detail as possible. Your day is full of details and I want to know what you have envisioned for your day.
After that I’ll review everything, send over an email with some great information as well as a link so that you can book a consultation call.
We will hop on a zoom call, talk about all of those amazing details you shared with me and have a “who’s cutest” match with our dogs.
After the call I will send over a contract and an invoice. Everything is done online and is incredibly easy!
Then we begin to make your wedding day come to life!
We get some coffee, I see y’all kiss and then we party!
At the end of all this we can share some incredible memories together and your friends and family get to see some beautiful photos we took!
How does that sound?
Your Love,
Your way.
Just Wanting an adventure session for now?
Let’s do it! Adventure sessions are incredibly fun to have, and it serves as the introduction of your story. These sessions are truly your own as we capture the love you share with one another and begin the story of your big wedding day.
This also give you a great chance to get photos in a more relaxed setting and step back from the planning process to spend time together, relax and be playful.

My why..
Hey, let's get in touch..
Faq's
HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL I RECEIVE?
I don’t have a set number of photos I deliver because every wedding is truly different. However, you can expect 50-75 photos for every hour shot for your wedding. Engagements work the same as well. You can expect between 30-50 photos per hour shot.
