How about a wedding day that feels
genuine, unhurried,
& absolutely epic?
Cheers to the couples
who seek experiences over expectation
You want an awesome adventure with real connection in a wild landscape. One that may involve:
Unpredictability over perfection
Flexibility over rigid timelines
Hidden gems over that popular Instagram backdrop
A muddy dress and windblown hair as part of the story
As a fellow adventurer who thrives in these things as well, Iāll help guide every step in your ideal day so you can stay present in the excitement!
After learning about your hopes, dreams, and preferences, Iāll share a completely personalized itinerary that is tailored specifically for you two!
Without an elopement navigator by your side, you might be feelingā¦..
Unsure how to plan something simple without it feeling small
A little nervous about being in front of the camera
Ready to do this your own way ā even if it doesnāt make sense to everyone else
Excited⦠but also overwhelmed by all the options
You want a day that feels natural and unhurried, but also freaking epic.
Glad youāre here my friend, because making that day a reality is why Iām here!
Meet your Elopement Navigator
Hey, Iām Jenn! Iām not just your photographer; Iām the navigator who helps direct the course of your day, provide valuable tips and recommendations, and creates a custom timeline built around everything that makes you two you. Iām Colorado-based with the red rock playground of Utah just a skip away. Some couples come to me dreaming of glaciers, ropes, and technical terrain. Others just simply want a quiet spot at sunrise and relaxing picnic afterwards. No matter the vision, I believe your wedding day doesnāt need to be louder, bigger, or more elaborate to be meaningful or ārightā.
Iām drawn to couples who value being present over being perfect, and choosing experiences over expectations.
In addition to documenting your incredible day, Iām here to take the burden of āfiguring it outā off your shoulders. Trust me, I know about decision paralysis and overwhelm!
Thatās why I:
Streamline my booking process to make it straightforward and simple.
Really get to know you and your partner ā your hopes, non-negotiables, favorite snacks, etc.
Create a personalized itinerary of your day that reflects your vision.
Build in both awesome adventure and downtime of space and quiet, so you have room to really take it in.ā ā
Itās really important to me that your day doesnāt fall into a blur of ātoo muchā or āwhat ifsā. I also want you to be completely confident throughout the process, so you can
relax and feel excited for the best day of your life!
The moment when your dream becomes reality.

āWorking with Jenn was honestly the best decision we made for our elopement. She was so attentive, thorough, and integral throughout the entire process. I honestly donāt think our day would have been half as special as it was without her assistance. Not to mention that even just the sneak peeks that weāve received so far are absolutely breathtaking. I couldnāt recommend her more.ā āZoa Sare

āJenn was amazing at capturing my wedding. She was able to document the exact thrill of the moment for us to keep forever. Jenn not only took beautiful photos for us, she was also an absolute strong hold of positive energy and hype. Our wedding required a photographer to wake up early, hike up hill with gear AND rappel through a canyon with that gear. Jenn's athleticism, can do attitude and keen eye for color, light and angle made her the perfect photographer for our wedding. Looking back, I really appreciate the way Jenn recognized how truly precious the memories from that day would be. She went out of her way to capture small moments and candid interactions to ensure that we could go back and revisit that day with a clarity I have yet to see matched. I would highly recommend Jen to anyone serious about capturing exactly what their wedding felt like.ā

āJenn is absolutely incredible! She hiked with us up a trail while I wore my wedding dress, and even captured breathtaking shots of us climbing a waterfall. She not only has an amazing eye for photography but also the kindest, most adventurous spirit. Jenn made us feel comfortable, inspired, and like we were reliving our wedding day in the most unique way possible. If youāre looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond (literally, up a mountain!), Jenn is the one. We couldnāt be happier with our photos or the experience!

Little Extras for you to Relive the Best Moments!
24-Hour Sneak Peeks!
Not many photographers offer such a quick turnaround for edits, but you deserve to wake up the next day with more than just a few phone selfies! This means you can immediately celebrate and share the day with friends, family, or just yourselves to relive the magic!
Black & White Edits
Sometimes a certain photo just feels dramatic, raw, and deeply intimate, and the lighting fits for a timeless look. I convert a select number of images to black and white to keep alongside your full-color keepsakes. That way you have a variety to choose from for albums, wall frames, etc.
At least one GIF!
Not all of your memories have to be only a moment! I love taking a motion scene ā like twirling, a dip, running down a trail, or popping champagne ā to create a lovable GIF you can send to your loved ones! This movement adds an extra touch of fun nostalgia and emotion you can relive for years to come!

A steady guide, affirming friend, & one heck of an adventure!
Hey, one last thing:
Bring your peeps!
Haley and Ralfy had an intimate canyoneering adventure together before meeting up with their wedding party, family, and friends at an easily accessible ceremony spot!
If youāre ready to kickstart your epic elopement but still feeling a little down at the thought of grandma, parents, and/or friends not being there, then invite them! The traditional elopement atmosphere usually leans to just a couple, but not in my book. I believe this experience can be even better shared with loved ones, and you can still get your intimate adventure before or after meeting up with the party. Iām happy to accommodate groups up to 30; any more than that, logistics can get tricky, but happy to still chat if thereās a different dream you envision.
Keep in mind that some location permits only allow up to 15.
Sound absolutely epic? I think so too.
Letās start planning your dream elopement!
Still unsure?
Check out this split-day, 8-hour elopement example below to spark ideas (and hopefully some excitement!)
Your personalized adventure elopement might look something likeā¦
7:00-8:00 AM ā Getting Ready Photos

As sunrise begins to peek over the peaks, you get a first look at the love of your life under a grove of golden Aspen trees.

The journey begins as you jump in your lifted Jeep and drive to a hiking trailhead. As we leisurely pass alpine meadows, pine forests, and golden Aspens, we pause for snacks, water, and magical candid photos along the way
10:30-11:00 AM ā Vow and Ring Exchange
Arrive at a crystal-clear lake, surrounded by rocky peaks and the changing colors of fall. Itās quiet, serene, and completely wild. You read your vows and exchange rings with the sound of water and wind as your backdrop.
11:00 AM-12:00 PM ā Alpine Picnic + IPA Toast
Break out your picnic on a blanketāmaybe gourmet sandwiches, fruit, and of course, your favorite Colorado IPA. A cheers to the journey youāve already had and the one ahead!

Pop some champagne on the tailgate, then settle in for a cozy lantern-lit dinner as the sun dips behind the mountaintops. At twilight, you share your first dance in the headlights and applaud that you didnāt waste a second of this day.
