Washington Elopements & Intimate Weddings
You're eloping?! I love that for you.
This is huge. You’ve found the person who makes your heart race, and now you’re ready to make it official. This kind of love deserves to be celebrated in a way that feels as epic and intimate as the connection you share. I’m pumped that you think so too!
Whether that means exchanging vows under the stars, or on the rocky beach with the waves crashing behind you, or beside a crashing waterfall, or with the wind in your hair on a mountaintop, or huddled under an umbrella in the rainforest, or on a ferry ride at sunset, or, or, or, or
That's just the problem, isn't it?
There’s so much freedom that comes with eloping that it can be hard to figure out what the perfect experience looks like for you. Where do you go? What do you do?
I got you, babe!

I’m not just your photographer - I’m your partner in this venture. A prepared-spontaneous kind of gal. I’m a planned-adventure kind of bitch, if you will. We’re talking hiking spreadsheets and pins on Google Maps. A car with a full gas tank and an extra set of socks under the seat. Being a chronic over-thinker means I’m always organizing details, and being Washington-raised means I know this place as well as my backyard - ‘cause it is! Lucky me.
There’s a lot that goes into finding (and creating) those magical, unforgettable moments that life is all about, and that’s what I’m here for.
Because this isn’t just about photos. It’s about capturing the heart-pounding, I-can't-believe-this-is-my-life kind of love you’ve found.

"Choose Allison if you want photos back that feel like you, but the absolute best version of you."
Claire & Alec
Allison took our first ever couples photography session and put us both at ease with her easygoing and open personality. I have social anxiety so the idea of having my pictures taken professionally was quite stressful, but I had such a good time!
Allison picked a beautiful location and provided a lovely setup that matched our wishes perfectly. Such a fun session, Allison really put us at ease. The photos turned out beautifully, and the communication before and after the shoot was great. Overall 10/10 would recommend and would be a return customer!
My partner and I lovedddd getting out pictures taken by Allison. She was incredibly professional and kind! She made us feel comfortable and the photos we got back were even better than expected. 10/10 would recommend!
Allison was super sweet and brought out our smiles really well! We're both pretty awkward, especially in front of cameras, and they were able to prompt us in ways that revealed our genuine smiles! The photos turned out amazing :)

A built-in cheerleader to empower you throughout the entire planning process so you can ditch the elopement-decision guilt and focus on this amazing celebration of your love.
Personalized vendor recommendations for everything from unique AirBnbs, local florists, and small-town wineries so you can spend less time scrolling on Google and more time adventuring outside.

One more thing...
In addition to all of that, you’ll also get a same-day polaroid collection. Usually the only physical thing that really lasts from your wedding day is your attire (and that’s covered in dirt, if we did our job right). But when you hire me, you’ll also have a box of polaroid images to cherish immediately. You can look through them while sipping wine, cuddled up in the car, or over breakfast the next morning. It’s the perfect way to end your epic celebration, and share with your loved ones immediately.

When do we need to book our photographer?
Great question! Unlike weddings where there are so many different vendors to book and a more structured process, elopements are much more flexible. Most eloping couples book their photographer about 3-6 months out from their date, but it’s possible to elope in as little as two weeks! Planning in advance can help reduce the stress, but there’s ways to get it done quickly if that’s what you’re after.

Of course you do, and I'm here to answer them all! Here are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions below. If you have a more specific question, feel free to book a consultation call or send me a note via my contact form. I'm here to give you all the information you need!
FAQ
Can we invite guests?
Yes, totally! Plenty of people want to share this experience and their love with their closest friends and family, and I would love to capture your little community for you. Having guests (and the number of guests) does impact planning. Making sure your location is accessible to your guests, there’s places nearby to accommodate them, and leave no trace principles are just some things to consider. I’d be happy to chat with you about the pros and cons of including guests, and brainstorm ways to include them, physically or otherwise.
How long does it take to get our pictures?
You’ll receive a collection of polaroids at the end of your day, and at least five sneak peek photos within 48 hours of your wedding day to relive those first moments of magic. Full album delivery takes about 4 weeks, packed with all the wonderstruck memories from your adventure.
How do we even start planning an elopement?
GREAT question! Planning an elopement might seem like a whirlwind of details, but focus on these four big things: the when, where, who, and how. We’ll navigate through it together, turning your dreams into reality!
How many pictures will we receive?
Prepare for hundreds of stunning shots! All elopement packages guarantee a minimum of 40 images per hour of coverage. That means you’ll have a treasure trove of photos capturing every awe-inspiring moment of your special day.
We don’t feel very confident in front of the camera, is that ok?
Absolutely, it’s more than okay! Many of my couples feel the same way. We’ll get to know each other so you feel at ease, and I’ll guide you with prompts to capture your genuine selves. Just be in the moment, and your photos will radiate the beauty of your love story!
