You're here because you're done with wedding traditions
and you're a true adventurer, like me.

Elopements aren't just one hour courthouse ceremonies anymore...

They’re a series of beautiful moments shared between you and your soulmate, carefully planned out and documented by me, your photographer.
A thoughtfully crafted day created by the two of you (with my help) filled all of your favorite things.

This is exactly what I'm looking for

Planning an elopement can be overwhelming.
But here's how I help make it a stress-free process for you...

This is what I need

  • beautifully photographing every moment

  • creating an entire elopement adventure

  • finding all the perfect locations for every part of your elopement

  • planning out a relaxed timeline so you can be fully present

  • researching accommodations 

  • helping secure any permits needed

  • recommending vendors

You're different. You want extravagance and adventure. Something fun that feels spontaneous but is also filled with sentimental, intentional moments. 

But the truth about elopements is that there's no one right way to elope.
The beauty of that is you're free to do what feels right for you. You might be wondering where to begin.

Working with couples just like you is my dream.

You've made the amazing choice to elope.

I'm Alysa

I'm In, Let's do this!

And I’m your elopement photographer.
But I'm also your location expert, elopement designer, and adventure friend. I'm here for you to help plan your perfect day that you cannot wait for.

So take me along on your next adventure,
I promise you won’t regret it.

The Beauty of Virginia

(Just a few) Virginia Elopement Locations

Yes, I'm so ready!

Are you ready for your Virginia Elopement?

Shenandoah has a special place in my heart and it's perfect for your Virginia elopement. Nothing beats the beauty of the blue ridge mountains. I've spent years hiking many of the trails in Shenandoah National Park and chasing the sunrises and sunsets along Skyline Drive so I know all the best spots for your adventure elopement. Imagine a sunrise ceremony at the edge of the mountaintop, hiking down to a beautiful waterfall for some portraits while the cool mist swirls around you, and then having a luxury picnic in the forest of Big Meadows.
Grayson Highlands is magical! Southwest Virginia is such a gorgeous place! There are so many beautiful trails including the Rhododendron trail which features stunning Rhododendrons that bloom in the Spring. Grayson Highlands is also home to wild ponies and is close to one of my favorite Southwest Virginia hikes, the Cascades.

Raven's Roost is one of the best sunset locations on the Blue Ridge Parkway and is close by to downtown Charlottesville. Can you imagine spending the day downtown browsing bookstores, vinyl shops, coffee spots, and getting amazing portraits outside the Paramount Theater then having your ceremony on the side of the beautiful mountainside at sunset.

One of the things that I love about Virginia is that is has it all. The mountains, lush forests, relaxing lakes, and beaches including Virginia Beach. Virginia Beach has so many options for fun activities for your adventure elopement including water skiing, boating, and even 3D putt putt. Virginia Beach is also close to downtown Norfolk where you can explore some breweries, restaurants, and check out the USS Wisconsin.

"Our photos have been absolutely beautiful. They show us, without looking overly posed."

"From start to finish she put us at ease. There was 0 stress the morning of because she had provided such an amazing plan. Planning an elopement from a different state, 10 hours away, seems like such an overwhelming thought. Alysa made it a breeze! From recommending different locations for photos, to cultivating a timeline that even included travel times to the different locations, right down to dinner recommendations for us to try! Our day was nothing short of perfect. Alysa truly captured our love and her calming, laid back aura made it so natural for us to enjoy our day without overthinking any detail.

"Alysa gave us the best recommendations of things to do around..."

"Alysa was a Godsend to us on our family ceremony. Her enthusiasm to make sure we received the best quality photos while having fun taking them was consistent throughout and even after the ceremony. She checked in with us often and maintained professionalism. She was also very punctual and kind which made us very comfortable. Alysa gave us the best recommendations of things to do around as well as the best food, which was a huge plus for us food lovers. I would definitely recommend booking Alysa. You will not be disappointed!"

"...these photos are now some of my most cherished possessions."

"Alysa was so responsive from day one, and with her very knowledgeable input we were able to figure out a foolproof, gorgeous location and perfect time to get the exact sunset/mountaintop elopement photos I was picturing in my head - and on short notice!"
"...and the photos came out AMAZING. Absolutely gorgeous, impeccable quality, and Alysa got them to us so quickly after the shoot. I cried when I saw them, which made my husband cry. My mom cried. My sisters cried. I can’t believe I originally wanted to skip the photography, because these photos are now some of my most cherished possessions."

We started our hike in the dark. We could all feel the excitement as we trekked up the side of the mountain in Shenandoah National Park. As the sunrise glow grew, we could feel the wind blowing all around us and the fresh, cool air was relaxing and serene...
