A couple shares a wedding kiss under the Northern Lights along Lake Superior in Marquette, Michigan—capturing timeless wedding photography while stargazing in the Upper Peninsula.

Imagine a first look at sunrise, chasing waterfalls, wandering through towering pines, catching the sunset, and stargazing beneath some of the darkest skies in the country. Whether you’re drawn to the wild shorelines of Pictured Rocks, the rugged peaks of the Porcupine Mountains, or the hidden trails around Marquette, your northern Michigan elopement is designed around what speaks to you most.

Eloping gives to the freedom to celebrate in a way that's uniquely yours—no stress, no expectations, just an unforgettable experience in places you love. Whether it’s exchanging vows on a private beach, enjoying a picnic in the forest, popping champagne atop a waterfall, or ending the day under a sky full of stars, every moment reflects the two of you.

As your photographer, I’m more than just a person behind the camera. I'm here to assist you from beginning to end, offering location scouting, trail recommendations, timeline assistance, and officiating if needed. My goal is to ensure you can fully immerse yourself in the adventure and embrace the experience, all while knowing that every moment is being documented for you to cherish.

FAQ

Absolutely! While elopements are intimate, couples often choose to have their close family members and friends present for the ceremony.
If doing an all-day or half-day elopement, we don’t recommend bringing large groups through the more adventurous aspects.
We will work with you to figure this out. We often recommend having a back up date should it be rainy, blizzard or otherwise. We do not count cloudy skies at night to be poor weather and cannot promise northern lights.
Simply fill out the contact form below or on our contact page, and we’ll schedule a free discovery call to chat about your plans and what we offer.
