It is no secret that National Parks are one of favorite places to be! So when a couple reaches out and opts to change their big formal wedding into an adventure elopement we are always giddy!!

Shannon and Ryan decided to Elope to the Downtown Tampa courthouse! But they still wanted fun portraits. So we took them around some of our favorite spots in the city to get some awesome portraits to commemorate their special moment! Nothing wrong with an elopement and making it just about your love story! Love this!

This Elopement holds a special place in our hearts for so many reasons. One because the NC mountains are our family place! Its a place we love to go and explore and reconnect with each other. Secondly because hiking through the dark to one of the highest lookout points to capture this couples vows as the sun begin to rise behind them was truly breathtaking.

The stunning canyons of Arizona make our hearts SO incredibly happy. We started down in waterhole canyon, hiking a good little ways (I, Brittany, was 5 months pregnant at the time!) Totally worth every step! The views inside were amazing. Then we headed to Horseshoe Bend for the breathtaking views. Never gets old! So in love with these. Make sure you scroll all the way to the last photo - totally jaw dropper!

Nathan and Hannah had an adorable intimate park wedding for their family and friends before we headed off to Arizona for some epic shots! Simple can be amazing and emotional and fun! And this is the best of both worlds for the parents that want to see a ceremony but the couple that wants an epic elopement. Check out their “elopement” images in the other blog post!
