CAD $2,800
ELOPEMENT
If what you truly want for your wedding day is peace, quiet, and ample time to simply be with each other, an elopement could be the perfect choice.
It’s for couples seeking to leave behind the chaos and stress of a traditional wedding, embracing a day that’s all about the two of you. Start your day with a relaxed breakfast, followed by peaceful moments to prepare for the ceremony.
Picture exchanging vows in a mystical forest, an old cabin, on top of a mountain, or beside a tranquil lake—the possibilities are endless, limited only by your imagination.
After the ceremony, take time to enjoy nature, share a quiet walk, or engage in another activity you love. End the day with a romantic dinner to cap off a perfect day.
A few weeks later, you’ll receive your full gallery—photos and video that capture the magic of your day. When you look at them, you’ll know it wasn’t just a dream, but a memory that will last forever.
Many couples choose an elopement in a special place like the Yukon summits or a secluded lake. Wherever you choose to celebrate, I’ll be there to capture every moment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The answers to your questions
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WEDDINGS?
100%! I’m based in Haines Junction, but I’ll happily go wherever you want me to. I include travel everything between HJ and Whitehorse, anything further just to cover my petrol costs...
If its in the colder season, your wedding is over a 3 hour drive I’ll ask that you cover an overnight stay for me so I’m not completely exhausted from driving up on the day. You deserve the best from me which means a good nights sleep the day before!
WHAT IF WE'RE NERVOUS IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA?
Everyone is! Trust me, you’ll be amazing. I have shot with so many people who declare they’re ‘un-photogenic’ or ‘hate being in front of the camera’, and it’s always untrue. I won’t leave you in the lurch, I’m a professional and I know my craft well.
Trust in me to guide you effortlessly and let yourself embrace the nerves. I promise that on your wedding day the last thing you’ll be thinking of is the photos.
DO WE NEED A SECOND SHOOTER?
For weddings over 100 guests or if you want both partners prep captured I do personally recommend getting a second shooter. It helps me capture all those beautiful moments from your day without feeling like I have to be in two places at once! My prices for second shooters start at 600$ for the full day.
CAN WE ADD EXTRA HOURS ONTO OUR PACKAGE?
Of course you can. If you have something special at the end of the day or the beginning that you want captured we can personalise your package to add on some extra coverage. Extra hours are charged at $300 or we can create a package that’s totally custom to you. Just drop me an email and let’s get planning!
WHEN DO WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?
All my galleries are delivered within 3-4 weeks. Depends on the season.
DO YOU OFFER VIDEOGRAPHY?
Absolutely. I love to give you a short 3-5 min film. My focus will always be on the photos and is my priority, but my short emotional captures through video gives your documentary a whole new charm.
What do you mean with PHOTO + FILM + DRONE?
In addition to the digital camera, you will also get photos from my film camera. A nostalgic vintage film look. Very artistic. And if your wedding is not directly in town, drone shoots from the flying eye.
When should we book?
Haha, as soon as possible, of course! Couples book me about 4 month before the wedding / elopement. But sometimes, if you're lucky, appointments are also available at short notice. As soon as your date is known, write me and I can tell you whether the date for your special day can still be booked.
What is an engagement shoot?
With the booked wedding you also get an Engagement shooting. This can be weeks or days before the actual wedding. You get to know me and get a very good insight into how I work and on the actual wedding day - so you will be totally relaxed about me as the photographer at your side.
GOOD TO KNOW
The answers to your questions
DO YOU TRAVEL FOR WEDDINGS?
I’m based in Haines Junction, but I’m happy to travel wherever you need me. I’ve got you covered for travel between Haines Junction and Whitehorse, and anything further, I just ask for a contribution toward my petrol.
If your wedding is in the colder months and it’s over a 3-hour drive, I’ll ask for an overnight stay to make sure I’m well-rested and ready to give you my best. You deserve the best, and a good night’s sleep before your big day is key!
WHAT IF WE FEEL NERVOUS IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA?
No worries at all! I’m here to make you feel comfortable and at ease. There’s no need to stress about posing - I’ll guide you through everything, and before you know it, you’ll be having fun and forgetting there’s even a camera there. It’s all about capturing those natural, beautiful moments!
DO WE NEED A SECOND SHOOTER?
For weddings with over 100 guests or if you'd like both partner preparations captured, I highly recommend adding a second shooter. It allows me to capture even more of those special moments without having to be in two places at once! My second shooter package starts at $600 for the full day.
CAN WE ADD EXTRA HOURS ONTO OUR PACKAGE?
Absolutely! If there's something special you want captured at the start or end of the day, we can customize your package to include extra coverage. Additional hours are $300, or we can put together a completely tailored package just for you. Shoot me an email, and let's start planning your perfect day!
