LETβS GET YOU MARRIED, YOUR WAY.
Your elopement isnβt just about photosβitβs about crafting an experience thatβs 100% you.
The most important part of planning your elopement is creating an adventure tailored to you and your favorite person. Whether itβs hiking, exploring the Great Lakes, or a celebratory flight at your favorite brewery, weβre planning YOUR perfect day.
Having a βno rulesβ framework to start with can feel a little overwhelming - thankfully Iβve done exactly what youβre planning to do!
The freedom an elopement brings can feel SO overwhelming, but youβre not in it alone!
Enter, me - your photographer and adventure elopement planning partner.
Hi! Iβm Meaghan, and Iβm here for so much more than to just take beautiful photos.
My number one priority is your elopement experience. My goal is to make you stress less, enjoy more, and focus on being present for every moment. Having eloped myself, I bring a unique perspective to this experience and understand how personal and intimate it all should feel.
In late 2022 my husband and I started planning our wedding and the further we got into picking from the conventional wedding norms the more inauthentic it all felt. Eloping quickly became the option that made the most sense. Planning a customized adventure and romantic experience together meant so much more to us than a big white wedding.
So picture the three of us, and maybe a few of your favorite pals (both human and pup are welcome) exploring the beautiful landscapes of Wisconsin, celebrating your love - does it get much better than that?
HOW IβM GOING TO MAKE YOUR ELOPEMENT PLANNING EXPERIENCE NOT ONLY EASY, BUT FUN
THE PREP
Starting with questionnaires and video calls weβll get to know each other. Learning about you and your partner and your vision for your elopement day will help me plan the perfect experience.
Iβll provide -
A full guide tailored to your location of choice
Location scouting with privacy in mind
Local vendor recommendations
A complete timeline with intentionality as the focus
Ideas and inspiration - I love a good brainstorm!
Securing all photography permits
Unlimited planning meetings (or like, just text me if something comes up!)
THE EXPERIENCE
Iβll be there to guide you throughout your entire day. Weβre going to craft an experience full of your favorite activities exploring some of the most beautiful places. The best part? You can unplug, leave the watches at home, and just enjoy each other and savor the moment. Iβll be there to keep us on schedule and on trail. Your only job on your special day is to be present and be together.
THE MEMORIES
One of my favorite things to provide for my couples are βsneak peeksβ within 24 hours of our adventure together. With your full gallery delivered within four weeks through an online gallery.

I suggest about 6-12 months out! This will help ensure that you have first pick on date, lodging, and vendors.

While every wedding will be different depending on what we do, my general range is 50-75 photos an hour. I'll be sure to capture every moment, removing only duplicates or shots that do not meet my quality standards (blinks, bugs, weird light - it happens)

They do! I did! However, it totally depends on what we're doing, how far we're going, and your comfort level. I'll have a portable changing tent if you'd rather change once we reach our destination. Either way, I definitely recommend wearing hiking shoes!
