Step 1 is easy—simply fill out our contact form and we’ll be in touch with more details. 

Step 2—we’ll hop on a call and set a concrete date in place (along with a few other details).

Step 3—together, we’ll plan your day down to every last magical detail. 

Step 4—the day arrives and it’s time to party! We’ll take endless photos and video (while staying out of the way + giving you space to truly soak in the moment) so you can reminisce on this day for life.

Step 5—a few months later, you’ll receive your photo gallery + video download. Prepare with snacks and a comfy outfit, something tells us you’ll be on the couch staring at these a while.

And if you have questions between any of these steps, we’re always a text, email, or phone call away!

Rain or shine, your elopement is happening! They say rain on your wedding day is good luck anyway, right? ;) (we promise not to say that cliche statement come wedding or elopement day though because seriously, sometimes rain can dampen your mood but we PROMISE, you’re going to love the final products. Hello moody portraits!) We have experience photographing in all sorts of weather and will make sure we have at least 3 plan B’s set in place. You’re job is simply to enjoy the moments with your favorite honey bunny and let us handle the rest.

We are wedding and elopement photographers and videographers based out of the Midwest, but love exploring new cities and places, including internationally. Our current goal is to visit all 62 National Parks, so if you have any interest in booking a session in one, we are so game! 

All of our wedding packages include travel if you’re choosing to get married or elope in any of beautiful states in the Midwest! If you are considering a destination wedding or elopement somewhere outside of our travel schedule or the mid-west, contact us for a custom quote based on your destination of choice. We are huge fans of travel, visiting new places and exploring alongside our couples. There is always room in our schedule for new adventures and we would never say no to someplace new and fun!

Absolutely! Chuck is the best travel planner known to man and finds all the best places to stay, eat + drink, hike, and explore. As your photographers, we also like to take on the role of wedding planners as best we can. We do that through giving suggestions on where to stay, things to do in the area that would be of interest to you both and all the best places to eat and drink. Though, that is not to say we are full on wedding planners and leave all the reservation making and booking to you - BUT, if you find that to be overwhelming, just reach out and we’ll recommend a handful of AMAZING wedding planners who can help take care of all those little details for you and leave you feeling stress-free come the wedding day.  

They are! We feel that having both is what makes us unique and we know you'll appreciate the value of each! There will be so many memories we don’t want you to forget. Pairing those memories with sound, motion, and music, creates a wedding video that takes you right back to the moment you two said “I do”! Our goal is to capture your day to its fullest potential, and we do that best by providing wedding and elopement photography and videography together in one package.

As fellow humans and non-models, we totally understand that fear and hesitation, which is why we’re here to remind you: THAT’S OKAY! We don’t expect you to know where to put your hands or how to pose, that’s what we’re here for. So many of our couples experience this same thought, so our approach to ‘posing’ is a natural one that focuses on candid movement, fun and easy prompts, and snuggling your best friend the best way you know how. Each couple has their own quirks and ways they interact with each other; we focus on bringing out your best side and your natural smiles, all the while taking in the views around you. Real talk, just picture us being some friends who are tagging along on your exciting excursion and who happen to be really good at capturing some of the most memorable moments you’ll share together!

Heck to the no! Some people just seriously appreciate the beauty of this magnificent earth and we totally respect that! There are SO many drive- up locations where we park the cars, take a few steps off the road, and soak in the vast horizon! Don’t let your non-hiking selves stop considering the option to elope because eloping can be for any couple, outdoorsy or not! If you’re up for a short-distance hike, or a multi-day backpacking trip, we got you covered there too! 

The sooner the better! We’re excited you’re interested in celebrating your love in a non-traditional sense and can’t wait to see how your elopement unfolds. Typically, most elopements don’t have the 12 month planning period so we encourage you to reach out sooner rather than later when it comes to your elopement! There are things to consider like AirBnb rentals, permits in national parks and other reservations that book fast if we’re not quick to snagging the proper items.

Absolutely! I highly recommend ordering your prints directly through your Pixieset Gallery to ensure the highest quality professional prints. After all, you've invested a lot in your wedding images, so they deserve to look perfect when printed! While you can take your images to places like Costco, Walgreens, or Shutterfly, I always warn couples that you'll likely see differences in color, quality, and sharpness since those aren't professional print labs. That's why I strongly encourage ordering through your gallery. As for albums, you can order those directly through us!
