Most eloping couples aren't running away from weddings, they're running toward something that fits them better. You aren't dreaming about spending your wedding day rushing between formalities. You're imagining kayaking to a hidden spring, hiking beneath ancient live oaks, watching the sunset on a quiet beach, or sharing a picnic for two after saying your vows. Maybe you'll celebrate with family another day, but this day is for the two of you. You care more about how your wedding day feels than how many people attend. Together, we'll create a celebration that's intentional, beautiful, and unmistakably yours.
For couples who want an experience, not an audience

I’m located in Michigan and was looking for a photographer for our proposal. Found Amanda and she was the best! I’m located 1200 miles from the decided proposal location which made me very nervous. Amanda’s expertise and site preparation made for the perfect proposal! We HIGHLY recommend Amanda for your photos!
Austin + Cathy
My experience with Amanda was absolutely fantastic. She helped me plan everything from location to decorations to picture details. Amanda was especially helpful for capturing our special moment and the pictures after by guiding us through poses that would look great.
Tom + Emily
Working with Amanda was nothing short of amazing! From start to finish, Amanda was prompt, excited, and extremely helpful in planning an amazing proposal for my Fiancé and me. She worked with me to scout out the location, and ultimately grab the perfect spot to propose. Working with her on the day of felt so natural, stress free, and simple, too.
As a Florida native, I know this state is so much more than crowded beaches and tourist attractions. From crystal-clear springs to quiet oak hammocks and hidden coastal gems, I’ll help you find locations that feel like they were waiting just for you. More importantly, I’ll help you build a day around experiences you’ll remember forever. I believe the best photos happen when you’re genuinely enjoying yourselves.
Hey, I’m Amanda.
I believe your wedding should feel like a vacation.

Amanda's care and creativity was outstanding. My fiancée and I loved our photos and Amanda did very well making us feel comfortable (we usually do not like having our pictures taken). The turnaround was quick and Amanda was able to help us even when we needed to shift plans on the fly. We will definitely book a session with Amanda again!

Frequently Asked Questions
In summer it can be very hot, which is why I would recommend a winter elopement, but early spring and late fall can also be good! Summer isn't impossible but a sunrise elopement would work best. If the weather is a total washout, I'll keep the day after open in case we need to reschedule.
The great thing about Florida is that there is tons of variety! It's not just beaches, but also oak hammocaks, crystal clear springs, and rooftop city views. My ultimate Florida elopement planning guide has a big section of locations to browse.
The marriage license will have two witness signature lines, but they are not required. The only requirement is an officiant or notary to marry you. You can have friends or pet sign the witness lines for fun!
I recommend winter for the most comfortable weather, but early spring and late fall can also be nice. You might like early spring if you want to include water activities! You can read my full season breakdown here.
Yes, the deposit is required for booking but I can split up the remaining payment however works best for you! Just request a payment plan when booking.
