Mountain View Elopement in Garden of the Gods

Garden of the Gods Winter Elopement

Elopements were the word for 2020 and 2021 is looking to be just as elopement heavy. So many couples have opted to elope instead of having a large wedding due to all of the reasons you could think of for 2020. Personally, I only take on elopements are smaller/less formal weddings as a rule of thumb. I love hanging out with my couples and document their love in an authentic and natural way.

Jennifer + Jay eloped with me in Colorado Springs at the end of 2020. They drove down from their home in Woodland Park with her in the backseat with a blanket between them so he couldn’t see her! It was pretty much the cutest thing ever. He pulled up and I was like, “where is Jennifer?”, I could hear her from behind the blanket saying hello to me. I die. hahaha

I took Jay up to the spot where he would wait for Jennifer. We chatted on our way and got to know him a little bit more. I went back to the car and got Jennifer and took her up to meet him. They wanted to do a traditional reveal and they got it! It was perfect.

They brought some things along with them for me to create a “lay flat” image. It is an image that contains little items that are important to you and your wedding day. I gather them all up and “lay” them out “flat” for a sweet little detail shot. Jay and Jennifer brought something usual that I had never seen before, a geological marker from the first mountain they climbed together. It was pretty fun to work with and it was special to them which was even more beautiful.

I would LOVE to work with you and document your love authentically and soulfully. Bring the things that are special to you to Colorado, let me show you around.
