The photos matter. So does how it felt.

I care just as much about how you experience your elopement as I do about the photographs we create together.

I want you to actually live your day. To be fully present with each other. To breathe, pause, laugh, cry, explore, and take it all in without feeling like you`re constantly being directed or rushed from one location to the next.

That`s why I put so much care into the planning. Finding places that feel like you, designing a timeline around the light, the landscape, and your energy, and creating space for those unexpected little moments that end up meaning everything.

I read the room. I know when to step in and when to step back. When to offer a little direction and when to let things unfold naturally.

Because your elopement isn`t a photoshoot. It`s your wedding day. And you deserve to experience every bit of it.

The photographs, 35mm film, Super 8, and video are how we hold onto those memories. But the experience itself? That`s what stays with you.

Now booking April 2027 Patagonia elopements!

My entire 2027 destination elopement calendar is open, including Acadia National Park, Grand Teton National Park, the Italian Dolomites, Patagonia, and adventures throughout New England and the American West.

If you`re dreaming of an elopement that feels like you, with someone who will help you plan it, experience it, and document it as it unfolds, I`d love to hear your story.

We`ll be in Patagonia in April 2027.

If getting married somewhere this wild—with room to breathe, wander, and actually be together—sounds like your kind of day, I’d love to hear what you’re imagining.

One of the things I love most about Patagonia is the vaquero culture.

Riding with the vaqueros was such a remarkable experience. I learned so much just watching the way they move with the horses, how connected they are to the land, and how naturally they care for the herd.

Their riding style is different. Their saddles are different. The whole experience feels rooted in place and tradition, not like a random tourist activity dropped into the landscape. And the horses are clearly part of their everyday life.

They know them, care for them, and move with them in a way that feels incredibly grounded.

For couples who love horses, this is such a special way to experience Patagonia. You can make horseback riding part of your elopement adventure, let the horses carry you part of the way toward the mountains, then hike, explore, eat well, and actually take in where you are.

I’ve loved horses since I was a kid, so this part of Patagonia has my whole heart.

April 2027 Patagonia elopements are open with photography, 35mm film, Super 8, video, planning, and two-day Stay Awhile experiences available.

Planning a Patagonia elopement from the U.S. does not have to mean figuring out international marriage paperwork.

A lot of couples choose to handle the legal marriage at home, then have a symbolic ceremony in Patagonia.

That keeps the logistics simple and lets the actual elopement experience be about the two of you, the mountains, the wind, the adventure, and the reason you traveled all this way in the first place.

Private vows. A personalized ceremony. Horseback riding. Hiking. Glacial boat rides. Incredible food. Slow mornings. Huge landscapes.

Two days to actually take it all in. George can create and officiate a meaningful symbolic ceremony, and I can help shape the rest of the experience around how you want the day to feel.

I’m opening a very small number of April 2027 Patagonia elopement dates for American couples who want something adventurous, intentional, and deeply personal.

Photography, 35mm film, Super 8, video, planning, and two-day Stay Awhile experiences available.
