Intimate

A full wedding experience on a smaller scale—ceremony, dinner, toasts, and the people closest to you.

Micro Weddings

A small guest list, meaningful ceremony, and plenty of time to celebrate together.

Intimate Elopements

Private vows, portraits, and a day built completely around your relationship.

Just the two of you

Whether it’s just the two of you, a courthouse ceremony followed by portraits, or an intimate celebration with your closest 20–50 people, we photograph smaller wedding days with the same care, intention, and storytelling as a full wedding.

We’ll help you choose a location that feels like you—and photographs beautifully.

Location Guidance

We’ll create a relaxed timeline that gives you plenty of time for photos without feeling rushed.

Timeline Help

We’ll guide you when you need it and step back when you don’t, so your photos still feel natural and like you.

Calm Direction

We’ll plan around the best light so we can take advantage of that dreamy Tennessee golden hour.

Golden Hour Planning

We help with more than photographs. We’ll talk through location ideas, timing, light, first looks, permits when applicable, and how to build a simple timeline that still leaves room for the day to feel spontaneous.

Two hours of coverage is perfect for an elopement — allowing just the right amount of time to capture your ceremony, portraits, and a few candid moments, all without feeling rushed.

At least 2 hrs of coverage

With one photographer, you’ll still have all the key moments beautifully captured — from intimate ceremony shots to candid emotions and meaningful details that tell the full story of your elopement.

An online gallery makes it easy to share, download, and order prints — so loved ones can relive your day from anywhere.
