BE PRESENT, AND BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES WILL NATURALLY UNFOLD
We’re so excited that you’re here and ready to embrace an elopement that’s authentically you. Without the stress of guest lists, seating charts, and venue limitations, an elopement allows you to focus entirely on your love story — no compromises, just a day designed for you.
Whether your elopement is in a few months or planned years in advance, there’s no right or wrong timeline — what matters is that it reflects your journey together. With so many possibilities, it can feel overwhelming to know where to start. That’s where we step in.
As your dedicated elopement photographers and guides, we transform those possibilities into a stress-free, well-planned day that feels completely you. From quiet, emotional moments to adventurous, fun-filled experiences, we make sure your day is captured in a way you will truly remember.
It's time to go big on you.

This isn't about ditching tradition for the sake of it; it's about courageously carving out a path that’s truly, authentically yours. It's about breaking free from expectations and making your unique love story the absolute centerpiece of your commitment.
Now that you've envisioned your intimate elopement with us, let's discuss how to bring it to life. We're more than just your photographers; we're your dedicated elopement partners, adventure guides, and biggest cheerleaders! From helping you dream up your perfect day to meticulously sorting out every detail and crafting backup plans, we've got your back every single step of the way. You can relax, be present, and enjoy the journey, knowing you have a team fully committed to making your elopement unforgettable.
Hola!
We’re Mariela & Demetris
A husband-and-wife team whose paths converged over two decades ago. Our journey, from unexpected beginnings to building a life and business together, has given us a unique perspective on love stories – especially the ones that defy expectations. We bring that blend of genuine connection and grounded experience to every elopement we capture.
Just like you two, we're a perfectly synchronized team. We move effortlessly, capturing every genuine moment while offering encouragement, guidance, and a touch of fun. This dynamic ensures your day flows smoothly and naturally, bringing out the best in everyone.
As a husband-and-wife duo, I'm behind the lens, capturing your authentic story through photojournalistic & editorial photography, while Demetris expertly films all the in-between magic and movement. This seamless collaboration guarantees you a relaxed, fun, and comprehensive experience, from your heartfelt vows to the final joyful celebration.
We believe YOU define “True Adventure”
Unlike many "adventure" photographers who focus solely on extreme feats, we believe “you define true adventure”. Whether it's a golden desert sunset, a serene alpine lake with your beloved pup, a hidden redwood escape, a quiet secluded Airbnb, or even a vibrant city celebration, we're all in.
We specialize in crafting experiences that are authentically you, capturing every real, raw emotion with a subtle editorial touch. We love chasing new horizons, from California coastlines to hunting down the perfect cup of coffee. We love the comfort of snuggle time, the freshness of mornings, and the beauty of peaceful moments – just like the ones we will capture for you.
Ready to ditch tradition and embrace an elopement that's perfectly, uniquely yours? Let's create something unforgettable together. Adventure is calling—let's answer it.
