The Revolutionized Elopement Experience
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT INSIDE EACH EXPERIENCE:
+ Your elopement is seen as a whole experience and not a singular few hours in your trip to Iceland.
Each detail is hand-crafted to match you.
+ Your experience is one-of-a-kind so you’ll never pick your wedding from a list of things to choose from.
+ You’ll have me in your corner from start to finish instead of dealing with a variety of ‘team members’.
+ My whole planning process is to lift any stress or anxieties off your shoulders.
+ Hands-on planning with you - way past just help with your day of timeline if you need it.
+ Your elopement will feel intimate, personal, and meaningful instead of corporate vibes.
+ Every wedding is completely different than the one before with a custom, hand-picked location itinerary matching you both as a couple.
+ Exclusive amount of availability. Steph doesn’t book as many elopements as possible to give each couple the attention they deserve.
+ The experience is one of true adventure, empowerment to be yourselves, and permission to love however you want to - however that looks for you two.

You will get an exclusive vault of Iceland planning resources for your elopement AND your vacation to Iceland.

+ You can just relax, be in the moment with your love, and let me do all the heavy lifting on your elopement day.
-
You’ll have me, Steph, with you elbow-deep throughout your whole experience, unlike most photographers who have very little involvement in pre-elopement as their service is really just photography.
With me, we will really know each other through phone calls, the planning system, and lots of communication.
So on your elopement day, I will feel like a friend- any awkwardness you might be afraid of right now will disappear. I’m one of those down to earth people who makes you feel comfortable, cracks the dad jokes, and can move you through the day without you even feeling like you’re in front of a camera.
-
Your experience from the minute you reach out to me until you have the photographic story of your elopement in your hands is intentional, intimate, and detail-oriented. I understand how planning an international trip AND your wedding can be daunting, so I’m here with all the little details to make you feel excited, ready, and stoked for your adventure.
You can see in my reviews how other couples have felt being with me in Iceland. I got you.
-
You’ll have a private client portal with me that will have everything you need for reference in it, including a super simple contract and invoice experience.
Inside your portal will also be resources for your Iceland trip planning, VIP Elopement resources, and more.
Everything is done online with a smooth interface, including your final image gallery delivery, download with web-size AND high-res, and sharing.
-
I’ve been documenting weddings for about 19 years so I have seen so many wedding photography trends come and go that looking back makes people cringe.
I mean like ‘‘what the fuck were we thinking’’ cringe.
So my style is true to life colors so when looking back on your images you are transported back to how Iceland and you both actually looked, felt, and experienced.
My special flare is creating images that feel like Wes Anderson and J,R.R. Tolkien had a photographic love child.
I am a nerd and I think everyone deserves to feel like they are in a fantasy, dreamy, magical world every once in a while.
Please note: I’m a low-volume, high-touch vs high-volume, low-touch service.
I only take on a very limited amount of Iceland Elopements a year to ensure each couple has the guidance, attention, and weather planning flexibility needed.
Pricing starts at $6700 USD for a partial day.
The most common package booked is a single-day package between $9000 USD and $13,000 USD.
However, because my service is custom, some couples have booked $18,000+ depending on needs.
‘‘She is exactly what you want and exactly what you need… she beautifully captured the impulsivity of the day.’’
‘‘It took a ton of stress off me to have her able to pick out locations and plan our elopement day.
This elopement experience is tailor-made for couples who:
+ value a full day of adventure over traditional wedding events
+ love a cozy cabin vibe over a busy hotel
+ are spontaneous and sentimental
+ want their local photographer & planner to feel like a friend and not a big company or studio.
+ love a bit of mud and hygge, together.
+ believe that luxury is a feeling and experience that can be found off the beaten path in this world.
+ want to see and experience as much of Iceland as they can on their elopement day as they say their vows & promises for their future.

Frequently Asked Questions
+ Your service is so different from what I see others do- what are the options to work with you?
Yes, I am quite an unconventional type of person. I see rules and I kind of want to break them. Once a punk kid, always a punk kid I guess haha So with that being said, unlike everyone else, there are 2 ways to work with me and all are industry disruptors. :)
- ONE: You can book me as your photographer & planner where I'll hand-craft a completely unique-to-you elopement experience and create timeless, epic works of art for you. I differ here than others because the day is bespoke rather than a list of pre-determined itineraries for you to pick and my photography style and way of capturing images is also a different approach- there is no posing. This service is the wholeshebang. This is where you can sit back and let me do the heavy lifting, bring the bubbly, and take you on a custom hand-picked location adventure after we have designed your elopement day completely for you two. My secret location service and day-of custom logisitcs planning is kept for this service only. And of course, having me along your side to deliver an epic wedding photography gallery where I make you feel comfortable and seen all day long.
- TWO: If you want a nice middle ground between having more help than random free blogs telling you half the info you need, and hiring a planner seperately starting at about $3,500- you can purchase a DIY Iceland Elopement Planning Kit. This kit will help you plan on your own terms, get step-by-step help, and not have to worry about bringing in someone else to the mix. If you hire another photographer other than me after you purchase the kits, these kits will help you with the parts they probably aren't helping you with- especially if they aren't local.
+ Do you document Adventure Elopements & Weddings outside of Iceland?
Yes, I love to travel! I have documented weddings in 6 countries & you can always find me hopping on a plane. Being an American in Iceland, I also am frequently back in the States.
+ We have not picked out our wedding destination yet, is that ok?
Absolutely! We can talk about the locations that are on the top of your list. Patagonia, Iceland, Norway, Scotland, Yosemite, wherever it might be. Once decided, we will create a custom timeline & location itinerary for your wedding. I got you covered.
+ What does an Elopement day feel like?
Your elopement day will feel like you are on top of the world. It’s a day we have crafted together to make you feel completely authentic & comfortable enough to let your walls down. It does not feel like a long photoshoot. Instead, it feels like something absolutely breathtakingly special. It feels like the world is yours for the day while adventuring with your love in an intimate space. You can be as awkward, mushy, or goofy as you want. These are your vows & your promises to each other so feel free to say them however you want
+ Do you help with any elopement planning & have elopement planning packages?
Hecken heck yeah I do. I am essentially your triple threat- help you plan, help day of coordination, and am your photographer. This is why my couples often refer to me as their Elopement Yoda or a unicorn. I will give you resources to pull together all other pieces of your elopement day & trip, build your timeline, a custom location itinerary, and my inbox there for you every step of the way.
+ Do you document Adventure Intimate weddings with guests?
I do! I document elopements and tiny weddings, usually weddings with less than 10 guests. I will help you with elopement style ceremonies, meaning if you need chairs or a not-so-simple set up- I can link you to someone who can help with that as that isn’t my jam.
If you are bringing some loved ones along for the fun, we can talk about how your adventure itinerary & transportation will work on our chat.
+ We are interested in a cinematic film, do you offer this?
Under my brand I currently don’t offer video filmmaking services. However, I do have some filmmakers I absolutely love, who vibe with my photographic style, and will take as good of care of you as I do. You will get their information immediatly after booking!
+ Do you have suggestions for breweries, restaurants, & day trips?
Oh yeah I do. ‘All-you-can-eat-soup’ is my middle name. I travel a lot and my main hobby while traveling is eating. So even if your wedding isn’t in Iceland, I can still toss some suggestions your way. Because, food.
- If you booked me for your entire experieince, you will get in the vault of resources many suggestions for all of these.
- If you purchase the DIY Iceland Trip Planning Kit, you will also get the same suggestions in your kit.
+ When do we get help with planning, I don't even know where to begin?
You get help literally as soon as you have decided which type of help you want.
- If you want to book me as your photographer & planner after the consult, once you have officially booked you will start to get a vault of planing resources the minute we are official. Literally, immediatly.
- If you want DIY help, the minute you purchase a DIY Iceland Elopement Planning Kit you get your information for the access. (Please allow a 48hr turn around in case I'm off adventuring with a couple!)
+ Ok, so you talk a lot about planning, you're our photographer too, right?
Photography is my first love. I will be your photographer (award winning. published. all that jazz), elopement specialist for planning help, and then day of coordinator once the adventure starts so you do not have to micro-manage or worry about timiing + locations. In a past life in NYC, I was a production coordinator for big studios, project manager for a major publication, and even a coorporate trainer for a huge-name brand. Planning and coordinating comes second nature to me, so, this is why you get me as a triple threat. (I feel like I should mic drop here.)
“I can’t say enough fantastic things about Steph.”
From her insane photography skills to her amazing recommendations for delicious craft beer. Anything you need while planning your elopement day - She is there!
From the moment we met Steph we just knew she would make our day special. She’s passionate about her art and passionate about making the bride and groom feel super special on their day! (And when you meet her you’ll feel like you’ve known her forever. It’s like a crazy magic power she has!) She was there for assistance with planning needs and was also an amazing tour guide on our wedding day. Just received our photos back today and we are going to need to get absolutely everything printed.
If you are planning on eloping-reach out to Steph.
It’ll be the best decision you’ve ever made!
