YOU, ME & THE PINE TREES

How to Elope

Your love story deserves more than ordinary

Forget timelines and traditions that don’t matter. Elopements let you:

Watch the sunrise on a mountaintop
Hike to a hidden alpine lake
Exchange vows by the ocean

Your day can be real, intentional, and completely your own.

Photos that make you feel your day all over again

Your elopement photos should be more than pretty pictures—they should transport you back to every laugh, tear, quiet moment, and breathtaking view. I capture the big landscapes and the small, unscripted details so that years from now, your gallery brings your adventure to life all over again.

HELL YES, you’re doing the damn thing!!

Hey, I’m Kendall, your adventure elopement photographer based in Lake Tahoe, ready to capture your love story anywhere—mountains, beaches, national parks, or even international destinations. Your day should be real, adventurous, and completely yours, full of laughter, epic views, and intimate moments that take your breath away.

I’ve explored 8 countries solo, lived out of a suitcase for months, and now teach wilderness skills at Lake Tahoe Community College. That means when your elopement turns into an adventure (and it will), I’ll make sure it’s safe, fun, and unforgettable—while capturing every magical, unscripted moment.

Whether we’re hiking to a hidden lake, dancing in the rain, or soaking up a quiet “just us” moment, I’ll be there every step of the way, making sure your photos aren’t just beautiful—they bring your adventure to life.

Emotional Storytelling

With my background as a wilderness educator, I’m not just your photographer; I’m your adventure partner! I’m ready to navigate the outdoors with you, whether that means hiking to a stunning cliffside or exploring a serene forest. I thrive on adventure and am fully equipped to handle any surprises that come our way.

Exploring new places has shaped the way I see and capture love—every landscape tells a different story, and every couple brings their own magic to it. Whether you're exchanging vows on a remote mountaintop, a windswept coastline, or in a charming European village, I’m here to document your adventure in a way that feels raw, real, and entirely yours.

I specialize in capturing the essence of your love through candid, heartfelt moments. My goal is to document the real, raw emotions of your day, allowing you to relive the joy, laughter, and connection every time you look at your photos. Your story deserves to be told authentically, and I’m here to do just that.
