"11/10, 5 Stars, A+ people, and photographers"
Alex and Kelly were absolutely phenomenal from day one! I contacted a few other photographers before finding Alex and Kelly and I immediately fell in love with their style and the way that they captured each moment. I reached out and they quickly responded and set up a time to talk. From our first conversation, it felt like we were talking with old friends. As we discussed our vision for our elopement day they shared our excitement and we went over a theoretical timeline of what the day would look like. It was evident that they were experienced and professional. As soon as we hung up the phone I knew that we would be booking with them!
In the months leading up to our elopement, Alex and Kelly did all of the legwork behind the scenes – getting permits, nailing down the timelines, and figuring out the best plan for the day. They were patient and worked with us even though we changed our location multiple times – always responding to us in a timely manner! Each time I suggested a new possible location they were right there to provide adventure ideas, AirBnB options, etc. etc.
When the big day arrived, they were right on time and were so prepared! They had backpacks full of everything you could need, including hand warmers which were so appreciated on a chilly October morning. I highly recommend the 12-hour day – it was enough time to go at a relaxed pace and enjoy the day while being able to document everything. They were with us from sunup to sundown and never missed a beat – literally laying in the dirt and climbing up the canyon walls to get the best angles.
Less than 24 hours after they departed, we had over 40 sneak peek photos and a month after our wedding we had all of our photos. I was thrilled with the turnaround time but more importantly, the quality of the pictures!
I can’t recommend Alex and Kelly enough! 11/10, 5 Stars, A+ people, and photographers. Book them for any of your adventure photography needs and you will not be disappointed!!!

Alex and Kelly are the absolute BEST. Very genuine, down to earth, and personable. We had so much fun working with them. The pictures are absolutely stunning. We encountered a few obstacles due to a winter storm but they did not waste a second on finding a backup plan – like looking things up before we ever got off the phone. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day/elopement! Book your Colorado elopement package with these two, you won’t regret it!

Alex and Kelly were absolutely amazing. From keeping constant communication to flexibility with scheduling to being excited about the unique details and moments we wanted to capture at our elopement. They truly went out of their way to make our elopement day above and beyond. They are truly talented at what they do. But besides their skill, one of my favorite parts about working with them is that you can feel a true and honest loving connection between them. That is so amazing and important to surround yourself with on your wedding day. If you are looking for an elopement photographer, your search stops here!

Nope, we didn’t think so!

We’ll talk through every facet of your elopement vision and get real granular with all your hopes and dreams for this day. Then we’ll put together an elopement package that includes everything you want (and nothing you don’t need!).
It’s also worth mentioning…
We’re your go-to Colorado adventure elopement photographers, but we also won’t put any borders on your adventure. We’ll spelunk, raft, climb, or paddle anywhere with you! If you dream it, we will come!
NO MATTER HOW YOU DECIDE TO BUILD-YOUR-ELOPEMENT PACKAGE, EACH PACKAGE INCLUDES…
After doing this for some time, we’ve figured out the secret process of designing elopements. It includes:

WHAT’S AN ELOPMENT?
There are plenty of different variations of the definition of “elopement” floating around right now. Just know that if you’re wanting your wedding day to be 100% focused on your relationship, with less guests, and less “stuff and fluff”, you’re here for the right reasons. If you know your values don’t align with what a traditional wedding day offers, let’s start brainstorming a wedding day you can get behind, because we can make that day happen for you, and deliver the photos you’re dreaming of.
ELOPEMENT DEFINITION:
A day planned for two people to get married, involving a small number of guests, giving special attention to the commitment the couple is making.
HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL WE RECEIVE WITH OUR COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGE?
On average, each hour of photography usually results in 40 to 60 images that you'll receive.
Buttttttt, this is a hard question to answer because every couple’s elopement day is completely different. From landscapes to number of guests to number of miles hiked, each elopement varies greatly. We pride ourselves in the final gallery delivery, and rest assured, you will receive more epic photos than you know what to do with! Every single photo will be a banger, and your album will be a perfectly curated work of art that you’ll be able to look back on for life.
WE LOVE EVERYTHING WE SEE AND WANT TO BOOK A COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGE WITH YOU, WHATS NEXT?
Well, hot dog! Let's get you two married! First, shoot us an email at hello@inloveandadventure.com, or fill out our form on our contact page. We will be in touch within 48 hours (probably way sooner) to set up a good time to hop on the phone where we'll talk about all things elopements and all things adventure.
Once we know the date of your wedding day, and the general location of where you want to get married, we will send you a contract and an invoice. We require a retainer of $2,000, a firm date, and general location to secure your wedding date on our calendars. The contract and invoice can all be done on your phone, it’s super easy and user friendly!
CAN I INCLUDE MY FAMILY OR FRIENDS IN MY ELOPEMENT? WHAT ABOUT INTIMATE WEDDINGS WITH A SMALL NUMBER OF GUESTS?
Absolutely! We love the idea of bringing those closest to you on your intimate wedding! Wondering what an elopement with family looks like? Check out M + T's Breckenridge Sunrise Elopement w/ Family
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK OUR COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGE?
We don’t book anything more than 18 months in advance, but if you’re wanting to elope soon, we pack up quick. We once planned an elopement in 3 days, it was our own, read all about it on our blog.
WE DON’T KNOW HOW MUCH COVERAGE WE NEED. WILL YOU HELP US?
Absolutely! During our phone call we can go over how many hours of coverage we recommend for what you’re wanting out of your elopement.
WHAT IF THERE IS BAD WEATHER ON OUR ELOPEMENT?
Our favorite quote, “There is no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.” We want to make sure each couple understands that there has to be some level of open-mindedness when it comes to your elopement day. If you’re not open to possibly walking in some rain during your elopement day, or refuse to take in the mountain scenery while your veil is blowing in the wind, then maybe adventure elopements are not for you, and that’s okay! You just really have to be able to roll with the punches, pivot, and possibly go with the Plan B, or even C option. If the conditions are safe, we won’t be turned away. There are ways to make our gear solid in the elements, and we can get really creative and still take amazing photos even when the weather isn’t ideal. Only if the conditions are unsafe will we have to turn around and re-group.
Us being located in Colorado also had its advantages. We’re the locals you’re looking for. We know the area well, and can suggest different areas when Plan A doesn’t pan out. Put your trust in us, and we will lead you on an amazing adventurous elopement day.
WHY ALL THE HELP WHEN IT COMES TO PLANNING OUR ELOPEMENT?
Your elopement day, location, and timing are all super important to getting the best photos. When you get those three things just right - your images will be incredible!
CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR APPROACH TO TAKING PICTURES ON A COUPLES WEDDING DAY?
We have a very documentary style approach when it comes to taking photos on your wedding day. We know how to anticipate moments, and capture behaviors that are authentic. While we are very good at getting those candid moments, we will spend some time focusing solely on “posed” shots. Why is the word “posed” in quotes you may ask? Because even though they’re “posed”, they don’t feel it. It’s not forced. We’ve created a way to get our couples in front of the camera, take photos of their true selves, the photos turn our amazing, and our couples feel comfortable the entire time.
WHAT IF WE BOOK YOU FOR 4 HOURS, BUT DECIDE DOWN THE ROAD THAT WE WANT TO ADD HOURS TO OUR COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGE?
Then we’ll start planning for a full day elopement! We love when our couples decide to document their entire elopement day because honestly, you’re elopement deserves way more than just 4 hours of coverage. It’s totally normal for a traditional wedding day to have 12-14 hours worth of photography coverage, so what makes your wedding day any different? Your elopement actually deserves MORE coverage than a traditional wedding because it is so unique. You’re going to have this amazing story to tell your friends and family of how you decided to get married, don’t skimp on the coverage! Your future selves will thank you!
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK YOUR COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGE?
We make it super simple. We require a $2,000 retainer, a firm date, a signed contract, and a general location to secure your wedding date on our calendars.
WHY DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH ELOPEMENTS?
We chose to specialize in elopements because we eloped! We believe that every couple deserves to love not only their wedding day photos, but their wedding day experience, and we don’t think that’s possible with social expectations, high stress levels, and family drama that comes with the ‘big’ traditional wedding. Trust us, and we will create your wildly unique elopement experience, all while capturing and telling your love story.
DO YOU ONLY OFFER COLORADO ELOPEMENT PACKAGES? DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH ELOPEMENTS ANYWHERE ELSE?
We're absolutely stoked to go anywhere in the world for your adventure elopement! We're ready to pack our bags, grab our cameras, and jet off to your dream destination, no matter how far or exotic it may be. Whether you envision exchanging vows atop a breathtaking cliff, in the midst of a lush jungle, or on a pristine white-sand beach, we're down! Let's make your elopement an epic adventure and capture stunning photos that you'll cherish forever. We're ready!
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE BEST PLACES TO ELOPE IN COLORADO?
The San Juan Mountain Range is in our backyard, so we might be biased, but we truly believe that the western slope and the San Juan's are some of the best places to elope in Colorado.
We also offer Telluride Elopement Packages specifically for those looking to elope in Telluride!
