When you hire me as your Colorado elopement photographer, you’re not just hiring someone to show up with a camera. You’re inviting me into one of the most meaningful, soul-stirring days of your life, and I take that to heart! I believe your memories should come first, always. Not pricing tiers. Not upgrade packages. Definitely not holding your photos hostage behind a paywall. I’m here to make this whole journey more joyful, more effortless, and way more centered on you and your love. So here are seven things I will never, ever charge extra for, because I believe this experience should feel easy, intentional, and unforgettable from start to finish!

Things I’ll Never Charge Extra for as Your Colorado Elopement Photographer

#1 Extra Photos That Tell Your Story

If it’s part of your story, you’re going to get it. You’ll never have to worry about hitting some arbitrary limit like “25 photos per hour” or paying to unlock more from your gallery. I don’t believe in holding your memories hostage, if it’s meaningful, you’ll see it! The way your partner looked at you when they thought no one was watching, the silly bloopers that made you belly-laugh, the quiet moment you shared while everyone else was hiking back to the car. I believe those moments matter. And I want you to relive them all, not just the ones that feel “Pinterest-perfect.” You hired me to tell the whole story, and that’s exactly what I’ll do, no extra fees, no gatekeeping.

#2 No Travel Fees for Colorado, Utah, or Wyoming

Adventure shouldn’t come with a price tag! Whether you’re dreaming of exchanging vows in Telluride, chasing golden hour across the Utah desert, or running barefoot in the wildflowers of Wyoming, I’m already packing my bags. I don’t tack on surprise travel fees or mileage charges for elopements anywhere within Colorado, Utah, or Wyoming. These landscapes are a huge part of what makes your love story so special, and I want you to feel free to choose your dream location without worrying about what it’ll cost to get me there. My bags are ready, my playlists are queued up, and I will happily meet you wherever your hearts are calling you!

#3 Planning & Timeline Support Every Step of the Way

Let’s be real, most of my couples are planning from out of state, and for many, this is their first time visiting Colorado. That means they’re juggling big decisions like where to elope, how to time everything, and who to hire… from hundreds (or thousands!) of miles away. I’ve been there myself, and it can feel overwhelming fast. That’s why I step in to help with everything from location scouting and vendor recs to crafting a timeline that honors your priorities and lets you breathe. I’ll help you make the most of golden hour, account for travel time between spots, and give you honest input so you can feel calm, organized, and so excited when the day finally arrives!

#4 Sneak Peeks Within 72 Hours (Max!)

You shouldn’t have to wait forever to relive the magic! After all the emotion, the adrenaline, and the magic of your elopement day, I know how much it means to see those first images. That’s why I always send sneak peeks within 24–72 hours. I want you to have something beautiful to hold onto while you’re still floating in that just-married glow. Whether you want to announce your elopement to the world or just have something to swoon over while eating cake in bed that night, I got you! You’ll never be left refreshing your inbox or wondering when you’ll get a glimpse, I believe in keeping that post-wedding magic flowing right away!

#5 Posing Help That’s Actually Fun (I Promise!)

I’ve got you, no awkward prom photos here! Worried about looking stiff or feeling awkward in front of the camera? Honestly, most of my couples tell me that exact thing before we start, and then 20 minutes in, they’re laughing, playing, and completely in it. I guide you through everything so you never have to guess what to do with your hands or worry if you’re doing it “right.” I’ll give you prompts, movement-based direction, and gentle cues to help you focus on each other instead of the camera. Whether we’re scaling a mountain or dancing on a flat rock by the river, I’ll make sure you feel confident, comfortable, and connected the entire time.

#6 Personalized Questionnaires to Get to Know You

So I can tell your story, not just take pretty photos. Before your elopement day, I’ll send you a detailed questionnaire designed to help me get to the heart of who you are as a couple. I want to know how you met, what you love most about each other, what kinds of moments make you feel alive. This isn’t just for fun, it’s the foundation for how I approach your entire day. Knowing what matters most to you allows me to anticipate the moments you’ll treasure, focus on the details you care about, and document your story in a way that feels honest and full of heart. Your photos should feel like you, and this is how we make that happen!
