YOU BEAUTIFUL, BADASSES THAT DECIDED TO

ELOPE!

When you hire me as your Virginia elopement photographer, there's so much more in it for you than just photos.

Let’s face it—planning your elopement can be super stressful, so why not leave the heavy lifting to me? As your dedicated Virginia elopement photographer, I take the stress out of planning and ensure every detail is flawlessly executed, so you two can focus on the good stuff.

When you hire me and my amazing elopement team, you’re not just getting a photographer; you’re gaining a committed team who will handle the logistics and craft an unforgettable experience. We specialize in unique elopements for couples, like you, who don't fit the cookie- cutter norm of society. With years of adventurous Virginia experience, my team and I will be by your side to ensure your elopement day goes off without a hitch, whether we’re wandering through the Shenandoah National Park or exploring historic ruins in Richmond, VA. 

As your photographer, I promise to deliver stunning memories that will last a lifetime—and of course, you’ll be married by the end of it! Let’s make your Virginia elopement day dope AF.

I'll help you out with permit planning (some state parks require a photography permit for elopements) and location scouting to keep our day rolling smoothly. I will go put boots on the ground so that we already have our hiking trail mapped out ahead of time.

High-quality photography that has true-to-life colors & skin tones so that you can remember the day as it was in real time. I want you to vividly remember your day, but I really want you to be able to match your photos to your day- how the sunset blazed pink and orange, how the water was sky blue, and how your partner's face turned 10 shades of red when they saw your elopement attire for the first time.

We'll have several planning calls, so that your day is planned to perfection.

A seamless day-of itinerary that we will make together with a backup plan in case Mother Nature throws a curve ball. Let's face it, we can plan and plan until we are blue in the face, but Mother Nature has her ways. If there's rain, or snow, we'll plan out an alternative location, or hiking trail to keep the show on the road!

our shenandoah elopement

“If you are looking for a stress-free, fun, relaxing, one-of-a-kind elopement experience Sierra is your girl! We started planning our elopement in September 2023 and she walked us through every step of the way answering all of our questions and making sure we were getting what we wanted for OUR DAY. We had monthly calls to make sure that we were on track with our vision for our wedding day. She has left us with a lifelong imprint on our hearts with her vibrant spirit and amazing personality. We will always have this experience and these photographs to look at and think how having an elopement was totally worth it!”

- Dylan & Candice

LITERAL FAIRYTALE

Sierra made this one of the best times I’ve ever had while getting pictures taken. Her comments and chitchat made for a comfortable evening and real smiles. She kept us informed on her timeline and had us tons of images to look through in no time! 10/10 recommend this beautiful girl not only for her breathtaking photos, but her kickass personality too!"

- The Bryan's

The quality of her photos speaks for themselves

“There are hardly words to describe the phenomenal care and attention Sierra paid to our photos, and we couldn't possibly have been luckier to find her. She took the time to get to know us personally and came with a passionate and creative energy that is outmatched. The quality of her photos speaks for themselves, and her calm presence and organization on the day of our ceremony made working with her a breeze. She got so many excellent photos that we never would have even thought of trying to get -- and earned justified praise from the NY Times staff when our wedding ended up being featured in the "Vows" section! Thanks, Sierra for everything!“

Hey hey! 

I'm Sierra

I enjoy trying new things, especially if they involve tacos, a good hard cider, head banging rock music, and breathtaking views. You'll always see me wearing all black, all black everything-not sorry.

I love traveling to places that leave me completely dumbfounded at Mother Earth's beauty and getting to know you and your fiance so well before your big day, that I can easily capture the raw intimacy between you two when your elopement day arrives.

Guests are always a yes! I do recommend that we keep it at a minimum of 10 guests. There may be restrictions on how big your group can be in order to have your ceremony in certain spots in National Parks, for example, some trails aren't dog-friendly, but I'll take that all into consideration when I give you your personalized location recommendations!
