nature elopements and micro weddings in colorado and the american west

In 5 years of elopement calls with couples just like you, this is what I hear the most:

“We want our elopement to feel…”

“ Easy.”

“ Natural.”

“ Laidback.”

“ Fun!”

“ True to us.”

and most frequently…

“Just us and our families somewhere beautiful.”

you already know the freedom and relaxed energy of an elopement day is for you. now you need someone who can help you make it happen.

I'm not just a photographer, but your guide to your dream elopement.

What you get working with me, besides fun, beautiful photos:

  • I’ve helped dozens of couples just like you create their dream elopements.

    You’ll receive experienced and well-researched location recommendations tailored to your vision and planning constraints, plus assistance with applying for any necessary permits.

  • Along with expert logistics guidance, timeline creation, an elopement planning guide, and local recommendations, I also offer brainstorming calls where we can walk through your ideas together.

    While I don’t book things for you or communicate on your behalf the way a traditional wedding planner does, think of me as an expert you can go to for advice when you feel stuck or overwhelmed.

  • I use my vast industry networks to help you source your elopement vendors. If I’ve visited your location before, I also love to share what I’ve loved in the area for dining, hiking, and things to do!

  • Your dream of a remote nature wedding can quickly become an avalanche of nickels and dimes from vendor travel fees and upsells.

    My pricing is all-inclusive, and the very few add-ons you may choose are discounted as a thank you. Full Colorado and U.S. travel, lodging, and film is included in one flat rate.

“FROM THE MOMENT WE BOOKED AYLA, WE KNEW WE HAD MADE THE BEST DECISION.”

“She was so communicative from the start, ensuring every detail was planned and that we felt completely at ease throughout the process.”

“The film photos she took of us are beyond incredible—timeless, emotional, and truly works of art. She didn’t just document our day; she brought it to life in the most beautiful way possible.”

– Jack and Gina
