Your elopement is a big deal. This is an adventure of a lifetime, which means it deserves to be thoughtfully crafted with care and expertise. When you choose to elope with Wild Elements, you gain more than a photographer - you gain a planning partner that's fully committed to helping you have the elopement experience you've been searching for.
Destination weddings are testaments of love that are full of romance, whimsy and wanderlust. We understand that every destination celebration brings along its own unique set of needs, which is why we've designed these collections to be easily tailored to the individual. You have the power to build a wedding photography experience that will encompass all of the things important to you.
The United States is home to a plethora of beautiful wedding destinations and luxe venues. You don’t need to leave the country, (unless you want to, of course), for your wedding day to have that “otherworldly” feel to it. Every celebration is a luxury, and calls for its own special way of being creatively documented. You can rest assured that the Wild Elements team will take great care of you.

There are few things in our world that top the excitement of being invited to explore somewhere new with the purpose of documenting someone's celebration of love. Although when this happens, we begin a wealth of preparation to ensure we're informed enough to serve our couples as well as we would in a place that is familiar to us.
We research everything. If you're getting married at a venue, we look at their website and social media so we know as much of the space as possible before we set foot in it. For any location, we track lighting conditions, noting when the sun sets and rises. We look at weather patterns and climate. We review maps, trails, and any resource available that will make us as knowledgeable as can be for this incredibly special, and deeply personal day.
Personally, I recommend booking between 6-12 months in advance. While this isn't always necessary, I do find that this time frame allows for adequate planning and preparation. I do not open my books farther than 1.5 years out.
However, any and all inquiries are welcome, even last-minute ones. I am always happy to connect, and invite you to do so as well.
The short answer is yes. Combining the timeless beauty of film with the versatility of digital photography, we deliver multi-media galleries of images that have been perceived by many as being both artistic and meaningful.
We currently offer 35mm film, Polaroid instant film, and Super 8. We think there is a magically unique quality to these documentary formats that give them the nostalgic power they're renowned for.
Every image is just a piece of a much larger story that's been in the making, while still unfolding simultaneously. We make it a priority to observe every detail that surrounds the couple before us - their love languages, the environments or landscapes, how they've chosen to express themselves aesthetically, and how they display their values.
We compile all of our observations, and find ways to seamlessly immerse and connect them together throughout the day. It ultimately comes down to being intuitive and discreet, only interjecting when the time is right, and never compromising the quality of attentiveness to the present.
