Let's chase something epic, together.

 

 

Goodbye stress.

Hello adventure.

Has anyone told you yet that you are serious badasses?


You're ready to ditch the all the pomp and circumstance to do this thing YOUR way. It doesn't get more badass than that!


And since you're here, you've probably already started to figure out that we're about to help you make this whole thing easy-peasy (and absolutely unforgettable.)

Two figures embrace against striking black basalt cliffs on a volcanic beach.


we're all about

the killer photos


 

 

 

Oh hellz, yeah

but we're also passionate about getting to know you, so we can help you craft the elopement of your dreams.

A couple stands on rocky terrain near a winding stream in a dramatic mountain landscape in Iceland.
A dramatic waterfall cascades behind a couple in formal attire in a dark cave setting.

We know you're the kind of couple who values

nature, adventure, and genuine connection.

That's probably one of the biggest reasons why you're drawn to an Iceland elopement instead of a traditional wedding!


(And seriously, can they even be compared?)

There is just SO MUCH MORE you can do when you decide to elope!

A couple stands beneath a dramatic rocky mountain peak in moody overcast weather.

Maybe you'll decide to catch the sunrise at Reynisfjara, and then pop in to the quaint town of Vik for coffee and pastries before heading out for an afternoon filled with waterfalls, Icelandic sheep and elf houses...

or

Maybe you're drawn to the 360 degree panoramic views from Dyrhólaey for a ceremony with a traditional Icelandic Chieftain, before hopping in off-road vehicles to explore glaciers, hot springs and ice caves...

or

Maybe your perfect adventure includes a camper van and a trip around the entire ring road where you can spend several days taking in the countryside, chasing the northern lights, and snuggling together under the stars...

 

Whatever your adventure looks like, we can't wait to celebrate with you!

I'm Amy. Oregon-based elopement photographer, big dreamer, hiking enthusiast, major nerd, elopement-day planner, dad-joke teller, back-up plan maker, logistics coordinator and big time nature lover!


I started shooting weddings waaayyyy back in 2009. (That's over 16 years of experience and hundreds and hundreds of weddings and elopements!)


I'm here to make this experience low stress AND an absolute blast. Location help? Check. Logistics? Yep.

Someone to sign your marriage license? Done.

Kickass artistic and moody-vibe photos? It’s what I do!


I can't wait to meet you!

You really feel like you gained a best friend through the process.

"Hiring Amy was hands down my best decision for making our wedding day such a special experience. After our phone consultation my excitement for the planning process went through the roof! I hadn't laughed that hard with a stranger, maybe ever. You really feel like you gained a best friend through the process."
