Hey there, I’m Alex!

Colorado Elopement Photographer and Videographer

I know about elopements firsthand because I eloped too! My husband and I felt overwhelmed planning a wedding that didn’t feel like us, so we traded tradition and expectation for our perfect elopement day. And somewhere while planning my own elopement, I realized it how incredible it would be to plan and capture elopements for other couples experiencing the same feelings about traditional weddings.

I’m not just your elopement photographer; I’m your storyteller, wedding/elopement planner, location guide, ultimate hype woman, dog petter, dance-party enthusiast, and so much more!

Alex is AMAZING. Alex did our engagement, elopement and so much more! From the initial reach out, Alex was awesome. My husband and I didn't know exactly what we wanted for pictures but Alex easily solved every question we had and made being photographed feel effortless rather than awkward.She's an amazing photographer, planner, human, and dog-lover. Alex constantly went above and beyond for every aspect of our planning, engagement, and elopement and we can't wait for her to do family photographs in the future!
