Kelsey & Jake are amazing! They photographed and filmed our unforgettable 2 day elopement in Greece!


Ever since we captured our first elopement, we knew why we cared so much. Our lives are filled with expectations about what is "right" and "what people do." You don't have to fall into that trap of having a big wedding. We are elopement photographers and film makers because couples deserve to be themselves on their wedding day.

Meet Erin, just a nature loving, hunting and fishing, mama to two little ones and two puppies; a 10 year old Border Collie and 5 year old Yellow Lab. I'm f'ing stoked to be a part of your special day. I will definitely be crying during your vows, hyping you up to make you feel beautiful, and probably cracking a few jokes here and there.

Although I was born in Utah, I consider myself a Montana Native. My family moved to Kalispell when I was six, and Montana is the only place I will ever call home. This state seals my love for the outdoors and God's Country. I have grown up fly fishing the Flathead River and it'll only take "three more years to think like a fish". ;) If you know where that quote is from, we should be besties!

I picked up my mom's iphone camera when I was 12 and the rest is history. I always have a camera in my hands and I thrive creating art. I 10/10 recommends running through the woods on your wedding day and throwing your hands in the air like you just don't care. Photography gives me a sense of purpose and capturing connection between my couples is my favorite part of the wedding day.

Your experience with me will be like being an adventure of a lifetime with your best friend. I thrive on fresh experiences and adventuring to new heights (literally). I empower you to celebrate your commitment to each other in the most intimate, personally unique, and adventurous way that means the most to you. 

I can't wait to capture the whole thing!

Tabby is all about your love and your dogs! She has four dogs of her own Piper (Border Collie), Diesel (Min Pin), Gunner and Koda (pit mixes). Camping in the mountains is her favorite part of summer, besides weddings and elopements of course! If you're ready for a new best friend, Tabby is here to be your number one fan, make you feel comfortable behind the camera and do lots of laughing along the way!

She loves every part of elopements! The love, the time for photos, the laughs and the great memories! She believes that your experience on your special day is the first and most important part of the day. Photos are obviously important, but she wants to make sure when you look back at your photos that those great memories go along with them!
