You didn’t choose an elopement because it was simple.
You chose it because it was sacred — because the way you love each other deserves space to breathe, roam, and be felt.
That’s what we create together.
As a Virginia-based cinematic elopement photographer, I don’t just show up to take pictures. I walk beside you from the first spark of an idea — helping you dream it, shape it, and bring it to life with the kind of care that feels like a vow in itself.
My team and I handle the behind-the-scenes so you can stay present in the in-between — in the wind before the kiss, in the quiet hand squeeze when no one’s watching, & in the moment you realize this day is really yours.
We’ll guide you through every step: from location scouting in the Blue Ridge Mountains, to helping you say your vows on a hidden cliffside in Puerto Rico. We provide planning support, timelines, florals, hair & makeup, an ordained officiant, and anything else you need to feel seen, supported, and cinematic.
Because this isn’t a photoshoot. It’s your legacy — wrapped in emotion, art, and the kind of love that doesn’t need an audience to be unforgettable.
Custom planning tailored to your exact needs and dreams- the sky isn't the limit! Wanna say your vows on a mountaintop in Georgia then go axe throwing with your partner and take some shots of tequila while you down the best ribs you've ever eaten? We got you.
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.
Down-to-earth frequent communication with monthly planning phone calls to ensure your elopement day isn't a total shit show. The one thing that your day will most definitely have is a great time, but we'll chat about details from the day you book up until the day before. We'll have several planning calls, so that your day is planned to perfection.
A detailed elopement planning guide that I've made with you in mind and years of elopement expertise to make planning less stressful. Even thought I help you with planning, this guide serves as, well, a guide to help give you two ideas of where you go, what to wear, and how I can help implement your values as a couple into your elopement day.
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!
You didn’t choose this path because it was easy.
You chose it because it was yours.
Whether it’s six hours in the mountains or a full weekend chasing light across Virginia, your elopement deserves to be documented like a story -layered, intentional, and wildly unforgettable.
At Grace & Jade, every package is built for couples who want more than pretty photos. You’ll get planning support, cinematic coverage, pro hair & makeup, florals, an ordained officiant, and travel included — all woven together to feel seamless, grounded, and made for you.

"Sierra was a dream to work with from the day we hired her as our photographer to the day of our wedding! She did such an amazing job communicating and helping our vision come to life. I was amazed at her attention to every little detail, her ability to keep calm in the chaos, and she was truly my rock on the day of our wedding. We will cherish these memories forever and cannot thank Sierra and her team enough for all they did for us making our big day amazing!"
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!"
“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!“
The show must go on! We will have a few back up plans, but none-the-less we will have quite a story to tell.
Absolutely not! This is your day and you two can plan it how ever your hearts desire.
ALWAYS HAVE, ALWAYS WILL. There are three options!
- A flat rate fee of a $1000 is required to book along with your custom service contract.
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!
