Authentic and adventure elopements for couples “letting go” of the traditional way of a wedding day

The way you choose to get married matters. Not only does it represent who you are as a couple, but it will be the day you reflect on for a lifetime. You should look back on that day with no regrets and extreme happiness.

Having a day that is completely made for you two to enjoy is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and shouldn’t be taken lightly. Choosing the right elopement experts to help you create that day will change your entire perspective on how you feel on your wedding day and look back on it!

Choosing to elope and create yourself a truly amazing wedding day will provide you with everlasting photos and memories. I’ll be here to help guide you to that day and capture it fully while you two are making your own wedding adventure.

why elopements are different than big weddings

  • You don’t have to perform or feel the pressures of a big crowd and can say your vows in private
  • You get to spend money on your experiences and travel vs. feeding 200 people
  • You get to explore outside and make that your wedding venue
  • You can skip the wedding day drama and celebrate with who you really want to
  • You get to have an enjoyable experience instead of a fast-paced day
  • You get one day to create your ultimate “favorite day” together that you’ll cherish for a lifetime!
your relationship isn’t ordinary and your wedding shouldn’t be either

Eloping is different because…

01. you Put your relationship first

If you’ve considered eloping then you are already on the road to putting your relationship first. Not all of us have good relationships with our families or you might not want them present for your “just us” elopement. Eloping gives you the option to choose what is best for your marriage.

02.you GET STRESS-FREE, QUALITY TIME TOGETHER

Because you aren’t on a strict timeline to appease the hundreds of guests, you’ll get to escape to the pure bliss feeling of quality time. I’ll help guide you to your day that allows the freedom to be spontaneous while still achieving gorgeous lighting in your photos.

03. it’s your day to do whatever the hell you want

Have I mentioned that it’s your freakin day?! Sleep in or hike a summit for sunrise. Make sandwiches together or enjoy a private catered meal. Do everything that feels right for your once-in-a-lifetime adventure!

Why All-Day Photos Are vital to your wedding Experience

  • You get to everything you wanted to and didn’t cut yourself short
  • You get explore + incorporate memorable activities into your day (not just ceremony and portraits)
  • You get to feel relaxed and present in the moment
  • You’re able to look back on your wedding photos and remember how you felt because it was fully captured
  • you have enough time to let loose & get creative with your wedding images!

So here’s what your all-day elopement coverage could look like:

MORE THAN JUST YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER…

I won’t just book with you and then show up for just photos. I’ll be your personal elopement assistant to guide you through each step of the planning process so that when your day arrives, you can enjoy it. You deserve a photographer that’ll help you through this new journey while you two enjoy the wanderlust. You deserve a photographer that will document your day authentically and make you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

You’ll get an elopement expert on your side throughout the whole process.

LET’S START PLANNING YOUR DREAM ADVENTURE

what couples said

M + Z –

“We couldn’t have imagined our elopement being any more magical and special than it was and we have to thank Sharlee for making all of our ideas come to life! We had never been to Oregon before but knew that was where we wanted to get married, Sharlee was able to give us the best recommendations on lodging, activities, and locations for our special day! Our elopement was planned quite last minute with only two months before the day but her communication and planning throughout the whole process was amazing and prompt!

My husband and I are both somewhat introverted people, however, Sharlee made us feel comfortable the moment we met her and it truly felt like we were best friends! She was able to capture the best day of our lives from morning adventures at the river, getting ready together, our ceremony in the Redwoods, playing in tide pools, watching the sunset, our first dance in the headlights, toasting to the start of our new life together, and stargazing!”

Frequently Asked Questions

Although this all depends on what your elopement day looks like, if you are inviting guests – I don’t recommend any less than 8 hours. It’s definitely possible to do a 4 to 6 hour elopement with just the two of you but having all day coverage is extremely valuable! This ensures that you aren’t pressed chasing sunset or leave memories undocumented.

Absolutely NO PROBLEM! One of the services I offer is helping couples like you find the perfect place that fits their wants and needs.

If you have a particular area in mind, I will usually suggest the best time of year to go there.

Unless there is a national emergency or warning that will put our safety in danger, I do not reschedule for bad weather. I believe there isn’t bad weather, but bad gear and bad preparation.

Don’t worry if you don’t have experience in a particular season, location, or adventure – I’m here to help guide and educate you! 

Your family and friends are definitely welcome – if that’s what you want! I am a huge family person and I can understand why you would want your loved ones there. 

We will create the best option for you and your guests – whether that’s hiking all together, partying after your intimate ceremony, or reliving your day through images with them after your elopement.

Elopement does not equal hiking. Your elopement is whatever you damn well want it to be! I have created a customized guide for my booked clients that entails LOADS of options for your elopement activities, none of which have to be hiking.

All of my packages include my photography permit up to $200, wherever needed. You will need to obtain a permit for the ceremony, but I will help guide you through the process of getting one.

There are a few options on how to get legally hitched! You can 1) hire an officiant 2) have a family member/friend get ordained 3) I can perform the ceremony as a certified minister for the USA or 4) self solemnize in the States of Colorado, California, District of Columbia, Illinois, Kansas, Maine, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

Although you will receive a detailed and extensive client guide with logistics, tips, and vendor/lodging recommendations – it will be up to you to make bookings!

Because I’m so passionate about elopements & small weddings, I do not offer wedding coverage for weddings that include 20 guests or more. If you consider more than 12 guests, a venue or campground space is highly recommended for this larger group size
