Your Elopement, Your Story, Your Day


"Whether you are dreaming of an intimate sunset on the California coast or a soulful morning in a hidden Madrid plaza, I am here to document the legacy you’re creating. As a military spouse and international photographer, I specialize in documenting love stories that cross borders.


Elopements are ideal for those overwhelmed by the expectations of a traditional wedding. The intimate experience can truly be something quiet, meaningful and entirely your own. Whether you’re dreaming of the rugged California coast or the historic, sun-drenched plazas of Madrid, I document the love stories that aren't afraid to break the mold.


As a military spouse and international photographer, I understand the beauty of building a life and a wedding across borders. My husband and I chose a traditional wedding, but we lived the "what if" of eloping. Now, I’ve made it my mission to provide soulful elopement photography for couples who value the experience over the production.

Curating Your Madrid or European Elopement


Step 1: Discovering Your Location

The first step is about the atmosphere. Do you envision an intimate sunset on a coastal cliffside or a quiet morning in a hidden Spanish plaza? If you haven't decided on your dream destination, I offer curated location scouting to help you find a backdrop that truly reflects your story.


Step 2: Choosing the Light & Season

Timing is the difference between a photo and a memory. We’ll consider the best season for your location, whether that means avoiding peak tourist crowds in Europe or catching the perfect "Golden Hour" on the West Coast, to ensure your photos feel as honest as the moment itself.


Step 3: The Planning & Heart

This is where we build the vision. I’ll walk you through the logistics, providing hand-picked vendor recommendations (florals, hair, and makeup) and a customized timeline designed to keep your day stress-free and entirely focused on the two of you.


STEP 4: The Celebration

Now, you elope. While you are experiencing the magic of a new city or a familiar landscape, I am there as a discreet guide and documentarian. Capturing the honest chemistry and the fleeting moments that turn a wedding day into a lifelong legacy.

FAQ

Where are you currently based?

I am currently preparing for a permanent relocation to Madrid, Spain. While I am wrapping up my final commissions in the States through June 2026, my studio officially opens in the heart of Madrid this July. I am now accepting 2026 bookings for elopements and proposals across Spain and Western Europe.

Why should we hire a "new" Madrid local for our elopement?

As a military spouse, I am an expert at navigating international logistics and finding the "soul" of a new city quickly. I spent months scouting the most intimate, sun-drenched plazas and rooftops in Madrid to ensure my clients have a private, intentional experience away from the typical tourist crowds.

Are travel fees included for Spain and Europe?

To keep your planning seamless, all Madrid-based elopements and European commissions starting in July 2026 include travel costs. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience from the first inquiry to the final delivery of your gallery.

What is the best time of year to elope in Spain?

To capture that soulful, editorial feel without the crowds, I highly recommend the "shoulder seasons"—Spring (April–June) and Fall (September–November). These months offer the most gentle light and an intimate atmosphere in the city’s historic plazas.

Planning a destination elopement can feel overwhelming.
