The kind of wedding that’s good for your soul
When you dream about your wedding day, what do you see? Is there a ceiling above you, are you standing at an altar, or are you standing at a this-can’t-be-real overlook? Are there tables nearby, or big red rocks?
Your dream?
Something outside. Something simple, and easy. Just you and your love.
This isn’t a stretch of the imagination. This is eloping.
Let’s bring your Utah elopement to life, together.
Does all of this seem a little too good to be true? It’s not. This is not a stretch of the imagination. When you decide to throw the rule book to the wind, you’re left with the kind of wedding that’s good for your soul. And I’m here to help you bring this magical day to life.
With me as your Utah elopement photographer, you can spend more time loving and adventuring and soaking in the moment, and less time planning your Utah elopement.
I ditched the “normal” way of getting hitched
and i’m here to help you do the same
Meet Kelly, Your Utah Elopement Photographer!
Hey, I’m Kelly, that fun person you invite to your elopement who knows how to snap memories and find the best spots for the view, a.k.a. your Utah elopement photographer.
My husband and I eloped 7 years ago (that’s us!!! >>>) and had so much fun. Best part? We didn’t have to to dance in front of people, or worry about everyone else having a good time during our wedding. We were able to be fully present with each other, having the day we dreamed of. That’s how I figured out I wanted to photograph elopements!
Now 120+ elopements later, it’s still so exciting to scout locations, figure out a timeline, snap and edit your photos, and yes, even figure out the legal stuff.
Proudly featured in:
Capture the Love. Capture the Moment. Capture Utah.
With Utah’s stunning landscapes as your canvas, your elopement story becomes something truly magical
If you’ve chosen Utah for your elopement, I know you’ve got a thing for epic landscapes. And guess what? As your Utah elopement photographer, I’m all about capturing that. See, when I’m behind the lens, it’s not just about snapping pictures. It’s about freezing those moments that make your heart skip a beat, against the backdrop of Utah’s jaw-dropping beauty.
Your elopement is your adventure, and your photos should capture every single breathtaking moment of it.
So, let’s do this. Let’s create photos that tell your story, the whole story. Because your love? It’s as epic as the Utah landscape, and it deserves to be captured that way.
I love what I do, and so do they.
“During our big day, Kelly made us feel so comfortable. She was personable, and fun to be around. It felt like we had known her for years.”
Working with Kelly was an absolute dream. From the moment we first spoke to her, we knew we were in good hands.
During our big day, Kelly made us feel so comfortable. Which was super important to us considering we are both super awkward when it comes to getting our pictures taken. She was personable, and fun to be around. It felt like we had known her for years.
We were in absolute awe of Kelly and her work. I could not think of a better way to have said I do than with an adventure elopement through “In Love and Adventure.” When we are ready to renew our vows, ILA will be the first to know. We are so grateful to have stumbled upon her page on Instagram.
My Utah Elopement Packages Include:
Your Local Guide Who Loves Adventuring
Utah is my backyard. That means you’ll have all my insider knowledge of the best places to elope in Utah when you book — not just the national park places everyone knows about. I’m talking about the hidden gems with the privacy and mystique you’re searching for — the free places to get married in Utah.
No Legal Scaries
The worst part about eloping is the legal part, am I right? Luckily I know the state and park rules, so I can walk you through what you need to do before saying, “I do!” I apply for permits when I can, and when it’s up to the couple, I’ll make sure you know exactly what you need to do.
Bringing Your Day To Life
Each elopement day is designed around you and what you want. Want to take a private plane across Moab? I know the vendors who can make that happen! Want golden aspens, or red rocks, or snow-capped mountains? I know a spot (or two or three). Sometimes the weather doesn’t corporate so I always have backup plans. I’m even down to go out the next day if the weather looks better — remember, eloping is about you!
Planning Questionnaire, Guide, and Timeline
Between the kick-off call and questionnaire, I figure out what your dream elopement looks like, what to bring, what to wear, how many hours of photography coverage you need, suggest vendors, and give you a few location recommendations with a 3D map.
After we’ve made the big decisions, we’ll lock in what your day will look like from start to finish, creating the ultimate timeline where you experience everything you want.
Your Adventure Gear At No Extra Cost
Getting married outside means facing the elements, which are often unpredictable in remote locations (but make for stunning scenery!). You can borrow from my gear garage, where you’ll find any props, gear, and adventure supplies you need to feel comfortable. Add it to your pack, and I’ll bring it for no extra charge.
No Long Waits To See Your Photos
You don’t want to wait two months to see your wedding photos and neither do I. You’ll receive your sneak peek within 24 hours and your full gallery a few weeks later with a personal URL with high-resolution, professionally edited photos.
