Colorado Elopement Photographer
Documenting exhilarating, intentional, one-of-a-kind celebrations of true love.Based in Colorado Springs, Colorado and photographing elopements throughout Colorado and beyond in locations like Glacier National Park in Montana and Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.
Give Yourself Permission to Dream
Whether your epic Colorado elopement is already half-planned, or you’re still just toying with the idea of doing something outside the box in an epic location somewhere in the United States, I’m here to tell you that you really can have the elopement of your dreams. It can be as bold, quirky, and downright mind-blowing as you’ve always imagined…or never dared to! I believe your elopement photography should feel like dancing with your best friends in the front row at a concert. Like driving with the windows down in the summertime. Like, well, jumping out of a plane at 6,000 feet…but more on that later!
In short, I believe you deserve a one-of-a-kind experience that fits your love story like a glove.
Are you ready to leave behind all things Pinterest-perfect and race towards something deeper? Something new? Something infinitely more genuine, joyful, and true-to-you? Me too! Why don’t we go together?
Meet Jessica
(She/Her)
When I was little, I always followed the rules. As an adult, I help couples like you break them on the reg! What changed? It’s a LONG story, and an impulsive decision to go skydiving definitely had something to do with it. But most of all, my passion for unfettered, unrestrained love stories like yours tugged me toward a life spent documenting “I do”s in the most breathtaking landscapes across America.
Known for wearing cozy beanies in every shade, scoping out hidden gem locations, and creating backup plans for my backup plans, I expertly blend planning with spontaneity to create the perfect elopement adventure. I am proud to deliver a photography experience that’s about so much more than the photos we take. So, whether you’re already planning your perfect elopement at an alpine lake in Colorado or desperate for someone to guide you through every step of this whole getting-hitched-in-the-wilderness thing, I’m here for you. I can’t wait to explore the possibilities with you and bring them to life in a way you’ve never even imagined. Let’s dive in!
I’m always on the move.
Here are some places I frequent or have been to, loved, and would be stoked to head back to:
Iceland • Glacier National Park • San Juan Mountains • Rocky Mountain National Park • Breckenridge • Great Sand Dunes National Park • Beartooth Mountains • Grand Teton National Park • Oregon Coast • Yosemite National Park • Outer Banks, North Carolina • New York City

“Jessica immediately felt like an old friend… It was as if she became a sort of unique ‘professional’ maid of honor, which is kind of when you want when there is only one person with you and your spouse to be on your wedding day!”
Tyler and Rahul
“Having someone that is passionate in her goals of ‘crafting purposeful elopement experiences in adventure-filled places’ is exactly what you’ll get when you choose Jessica. From day one, she helped ignite ideas on where and what we wanted in our day… She’s incredible and honestly willing to do whatever it takes to make things absolutely magical no matter the circumstances. “
Deanna and Rob
“The way she documented our day, with gentle guidance, allowed us to be playful, explore the scenery, and just simply feel the love!! Jessica had a professional and strong creative presence and was also laid back, which made us feel at ease.”
