There are no rules to follow for your elopement or obligations to abide by. You don't have to hike 5 miles or base-jump off a cliff if that's not your thing (unless you're into that kind of thing).
Every relationship is different which is why you deserve options for your day. There's no preselected vendors, locations, aesthetic or any of that around here. Each elopement is handcrafted uniquely to you, for YOU. Giving you a truly one-of-a-kind & unforgettable experience.
What exactly is eloping?
a 'just us' experience that represents who you are
An elopement is an intimate type of wedding that allows you to have a 'just us' experience that truly represents your relationship, values and beliefs by focusing on everything you do want and none of the things that you don't feel are truly you.
It's about creating your own traditions by breaking the societal norm of what a wedding is supposed to be and celebrating your love in WHICHEVER way feels the most you!
Whether that be an adventure in the mountains or saying I do on a rooftop in the city. It's your day and you make the rules.
I mention a lot how I'll navigate you through your elopement, but let me break it all down for you what that truly means.
As your elopement photographer and planning expert, I'll not only take care of the logistics and tasks as I guide you on everything you need for your day. My biggest role is to be here to support you by fostering a safe space for you to feel at home.
From the moment we meet, I want you to know that YOUR why behind eloping matters. Your values matter. Your relationship matters. And your identity matters.
The way you choose to get married is a highly personal and intimate decision and I believe your elopement day should represent you 1000%.
My goal is to help get you thinking on all the ways you can create an elopement that is "just us", an experience that focuses on everything you want and nothing you don't. So let take the stress off your plate, help you navigate through it all and support & celebrate your one of a kind elopement.
There's not a thing I won't do to make sure your experience is beyond your wildest dreams.. Not only will I provide you with all the tools to have an unforgettable day with your love, but I'll be your go-to-gal for anything & everything you need. From helping pin boutonnières, curling your hair, to even sewing a dress, I got you-- every step of the way.
No date or set location? No problem! When we have our consult, we'll talk all about your vision & what your dream elopement looks like. I'm here to help you with setting the foundation, whether that means setting a date or finding the perfect location.
From my exclusive elopement guide to checklists and more... you'll have access to in depth resources and everything you didn't even know you needed.
I'll deep dive into your questionnaire, getting to know the real you, so I can build the framework for your elopement and craft an experience that is 100% unique to you.
You can count on me to support you every step of the way. Need to talk? Let's have a chat! I'm only an email away.
I'll be there to guide you through the day, so you can sit back and relax, and enjoy every second being fully present. Without the stress, pressure or theatrics-- you'll take each moment as they come and just get the chance to really just soak it all in and feel. I'll be there documenting your day authentically and beautifully, capturing the big moments and the ones in-between for you to cherish forever.
I'll scout locations that align with your vision to make sure I check all the boxes for your dreamiest location to say "I do".
I'll equip you with all the info on any required permits & applying for marriage licenses, how to file for them & any associated costs, making it as easy as signing on the dotted line.
You'll receive your epic gallery full of images that you can look back on for the rest of your lives and think to yourselves "I'm so happy we did this for us".
You'll get recommendations for all the best vendors to help bring your vision to life.
You'll receive activity options for your day from your favorite hobbies to trying something new. I'll provide ideas for your elopement that are totally your vibe & help you create an itinerary that is uniquely yours.
Whether you want to cozy up in a cabin or spend the night in a 5 star hotel, I'll provide you with my favorite lodging and travel recommendations to create the ultimate experience.
what my couples have to say
about their handcrafted elopement
Leslie & Jordan

"Oshen was absolutely the best photographer I could ask for! My husband and I knew we didn’t want a big wedding and wanted something more intimate. But we were both really intimidated with the planning process and had no idea where to really start. I found Oshen’s instagram page randomly and instantly loved her work! Once I messaged her about our idea to elope, she sent us a very informative guide that answered all questions we had! After that, she was on top of everything. From planning, checking in, ensuring everything was arranged, to even supplying numerous recommendations for just about anything! And most importantly for me, she was very quick to adjust any last minute plans that needed to be made with ease. Oshen made us feel very comfortable and heard. I can’t recommend her enough and can confidently say we’d be happy to book with her for any future shoots!"
Oshen is INCREDIBLE!!!! Not only did our pictures turn out amazing, she helped us so much through the entire planning process (locations, "day of" schedule, finding vendors, etc). ALSO, we had to change locations 3 different times (which was so stressful) and EVERY time we asked Oshen about a change, she just replied "okay! I can make that work!" Her flexibility really helped soothe our anxiety. I cannot say enough good things about her and Josh (s/o to our amazing videographer!!!) She truly cares not just about your day, but YOU as a human. Thank you thank you thank you for being amazing!!!!
"I worked with Oshen to plan my destination wedding in California. She is an amazing planner. She recommended all our vendors and they were also all great. Oshen is great at communication… always gets back to you quickly. She also curled my bridesmaid hair and was ready to sow a dress. I got my sneak peak pictures back the next day and her work is UNREAL."
