WELCOME

If you feel awkward in front of the camera, you’re my people. As your Oregon elopement photographer — and a fellow camera-shy human — I’ve built my entire approach around helping you feel comfortable, confident, and completely at ease.

OREGON BASED. PASSPORT READY.

HELLO, I’M SHANNON

I’m Shannon — your elopement photographer, calm presence, and steady support throughout it all. I started my business in 2013 while living in Okinawa and travel has influenced my perspective ever since. I’ve explored 27 countries and counting, with the freedom to fully lean into destination elopements and weddings — both here in Oregon and worldwide.

If you’re dreaming up something extraordinary, I’d love to hear what you’re planning.

“Shannon went above and beyond from things such as helping us look for locations, capturing our big day while reassuring us that everything was okay since things were running behind.”

“WE WANT THIS TO FEEL INTENTIONAL- NOT OVERWHELMING.”

You’re choosing to elope for a reason.
Not to escape the stress… but to create something that actually feels more like you.

BUT THEN THE QUESTIONS CREEP IN…

  • How do we plan something intimate without it feeling thrown together?
  • How do we create a timeline that feels calm, with space to breathe and to enjoy all the moments?
  • Will this actually feel like us?

You don’t just need photos.
You need someone who protects the pace of your day and cares how it feels.

AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I AM HERE FOR.

ELOPEMENT PRICING

I looked at a lot of different photographers for my elopement, seeing as the ceremony was private, it was very important for us to have amazing photos to share with friends and family. My husband and I can both be awkward picture takers, but working with her on that day was easy and fun. We are absolutely thrilled with the work she did. The photos are beautiful, top quality, and bathed in a gorgeous warm light! We cannot stop looking at them!

ELOPEMENT OR WEDDING- WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE

Not sure where your day fits? You’re not alone.
If you’re planning something intimate, intentional, and centered fully around the two of you — that’s an elopement.


If you’re gathering 25+ guests, that’s considered a wedding.

Both are beautiful. Both deserve to be documented with care. And yes — I photograph both.

THE PROCESS

WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO ELOPING?

1
BEFORE WE TALK LOGISTICS, WE TALK ABOUT YOU.
Your story. What feels natural. What makes you light up.

I want to understand your relationship, your pace, and what kind of day feels right.

No pressure. Just clarity and excitement.

2
THOUGHTFUL PLANNING, GENTLE GUIDANCE. This is where you exhale.

With 13 years of experience behind me, I’ve refined a process that keeps things simple and stress-free.

You’ll always know what’s next.
You’ll never feel alone in it.

3
BE FULLY PRESENT — I’ll Take Care of the Rest.

We’ll explore, laugh, breathe it all in — and I’ll gently guide you when needed so you feel natural and confident (even if you’re camera shy… I get it).

You get to soak it in.
I’ll make sure you never forget it.

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

I do so much more than show up with a camera. I help with location ideas, timelines, permits (if needed), backup weather plans, and all the little details that make the day feel smooth and stress-free. You get guidance without pressure.

We start with you. What feels like you two? Mountains? Coast? Forest? City? Somewhere sentimental? I’ll send personalized location ideas based on your vision, accessibility needs, and the kind of experience you want to have.

Yes — I photograph elopements across the U.S. and worldwide. I’ve traveled to 27 countries (and counting), so navigating new places is second nature. From location scouting and permits to timelines and travel logistics, I bring real-world travel experience and thoughtful planning expertise to make your day seamless — wherever in the world you choose to say your vows.

Elopements come with adventure — and sometimes that includes wind, rain, or fog. I always build flexible timelines and backup options. And honestly? Some of the most magical, romantic photos happen in “imperfect” weather.

Yes. Elopements don’t have to mean “just the two of us.” Whether you want it completely private or with a handful of your favorite people, we’ll build a plan that honors your relationships and keeps the day feeling intentional.

Most couples book 6–12 months in advance, especially for popular seasons and destinations. That said, if you’re dreaming of something sooner, reach out — sometimes the best adventures come together quickly.

Elopements are usually intimate celebrations with 25 guests or fewer, often centered around a relaxed, meaningful experience together. Weddings typically include larger groups and a more traditional timeline, with time spent celebrating alongside family and friends.
