Elopement travel schedule

I specialize in elopements in the Dolomites, Switzerland, and Iceland... but other places are also calling me.

So here's the thing. I'm kinda an expert on travelling as well as photography. If our schedules match up, I'm happy to help you plan an elopement or other session in that area for my local pricing. That means you get the same pricing that I charge for elopements in the Dolomites, Switzerland, and Iceland.

I've helped couples plan their elopements all over the world, I've lived in several countries, and I've backpacked my 20's away. Here's my street cred:

• Travelled to 60+ countries, mainly backpacking, and never on organized tours (I love trip planning!)
• Lived in 6 countries and many cities
• Photographed weddings/elopements in 20+ countries

So let's take a deep dive into my 2026 schedule:

Mid-late March
Japan

Early April
Maui, Hawaii

April - Early May
Vancouver • Squamish • Rockies

Early July
Iceland

August
Namibia

Mid/late October
Cappadocia

Otherwise, I'm in the Dolomites or Switzerland.

And an early look at 2027:

Feb or March
Morocco

April
Vancouver

Mid June
Iceland

Places I'd love to consider photographing an elopement (again):

Norway • Patagonia • New Zealand • the Canadian Rockies • Cappadocia • Morocco • Faroe Islands

So if you're wanting to bring me along to any of these locations, send me a message! Let's see what kind of magic we can make together.

I offset my flights, but in a legit way.

I know "offsetting" sounds like a load of BS. But because I travel often for elopements, I wanted to be intentional about how I do it.

I found an ethical way to offset all of my flights and work-related travel through Greentripper, a verified Gold Standard carbon offset program that supports certified climate projects around the world. That means every time I fly to photograph an elopement, I calculate the emissions and contribute directly to projects that reduce or remove carbon in a measurable way.

If I’m going to chase mountains for a living, I want to do it responsibly.
