An elopement isn't a smaller wedding — it's a different day. No timeline built around 150 people, no receiving line. Usually a ceremony, a long walk somewhere beautiful, and dinner. We shoot it the way it happens, and if you don't have a location yet, we'll send options.

Questions we get asked.
How much should a photographer charge for an elopement?+
In Southern California, elopement coverage runs $1,200–$3,000 depending on hours and whether film is included. Ours starts at $1,440 for four hours with a lead photographer; $1,920 adds a videographer and a short film.
How many guests can we have?+
Up to 20. Past that it's a small wedding, and the wedding packages fit better — more hours and a second shooter.
We don't have a location yet. Can you help?+
Yes. Tell us the vibe — coast, desert, hills, courthouse — and we'll send options with permits, parking, and the best light for that spot.
Do you speak Spanish?+
Yes — the whole team is bilingual. Toda la comunicación puede ser en español: contrato, galería y mensajes.
