We’re more than just photographers. We’re your trusted companions, your accomplices, the seconds in your corner as you bravely step onto the canvas of a new phase.
Your wedding day will feel like a million things—surreal, overwhelming, relaxing, exciting, sweet, tender, deep. We honor the range of emotions couples experience as they mark the beginning of a new phase together. Our job is to facilitate, even protect those emotions. Both in the planning stage and on the day itself we will work to create space for genuine emotions to be felt, and by capturing them in images, we make sure you’ll always be able to return to and relive those beautiful moments.
As you start to plan your wedding, you may have a chorus of voices chiming in about what your day should look like. We’re not into that. We're here to listen to you, to talk through your hopes and dreams and your worries and doubts, and bring it all together into the most perfect day for the two of you. We're your cheerleaders, your hype crew, your biggest advocates. We want you to have the best day ever, and we're here to help make that happen.
True emotion needs lots of time and space to be felt. We know how to organize your day so you have lots of time to slow down, enjoy the people you're with, and actually have FUN on your wedding day! We don’t have pre-made itineraries or cookie-cutter timelines; we design each and every wedding and elopement itinerary specifically for you.
The last thing we want you thinking about on your wedding day is a ticking clock, so we offer all-day/unlimited packages to make room for everything you’ve imagined. But if your celebration is more limited in scope, we also offer hourly packages starting at three hours.
We’ve lived in Western NC for 7 years and know all the best secret, locals-only spots that you won’t find in a Google search for “best places to elope in Asheville.” Getting married outside of the Appalachians? We’ve still got your back; we love scouting trails, finding hidden gems, and discovering unknown places that offer privacy and stunning views.
Need someone to do your hair and makeup at 2 a.m. for your sunrise elopement? We got you. Want a 3-course meal cooked over a campfire by a gourmet chef? We know a guy. We’ll connect you to amazing vendors to help you build a team of people as passionate about creating an unforgettable experience as we are.
We’ve learned a thing or two about what makes a day in the wilderness magical and amazing, and what can make an adventure go south. We bring all of the supplies we know you might forget to keep your day stress-free, flyaway-free, and blister-free, so you can focus on each other.
Well, we haven’t quite figured out how to control the weather, but we do help couples plan backup locations, bring rain gear and blankets, and embrace whatever happens. Some of the most magical moments happen when the weather doesn’t cooperate!
Since we’re a collective of photographers with different passions, experience-levels, and bed-times (Kelsey’s got a 4-year-old), we can offer a variety of packages to accommodate many budgets and wedding styles. We’ve designed our packages around the types of weddings that bring us the most joy and best fit our individual styles. To make sure our pricing aligns with your budget, our starting prices are listed below. We’ll share our full packages on request.
Guidance, support, and cheerleading every step of the way. Vendor recommendations, timeline creation, location scouting…whatever you need to make your day exactly what you want it to be. No idea is too big or too out there!

No cookie-cutter packages or experiences here. With our personalized location questionnaire we get a feel for exactly what you're looking for out of your elopement experience and recommend locations specific for you and your vision. We don't have a handful of pre-made elopement packages and locations you have to choose from; your elopement day will be 100% unique to you two.
If you're going to let someone into your intentional elopement plans, you need to know they're on board with your vision and understand the specific needs of an elopement day like yours. Need someone to do your hair and makeup at 2am for your sunrise ceremony? Or maybe you want a gourmet meal cooked over a campfire in the wilderness? We'll send you personalized vendor recommendations to build your vendor team with professionals who fully understand your vision and cater specifically to elopements.
Need help estimating how long a hike will take? Wondering how much time to allow for your leisurely charcuterie picnic? How long does a hot air balloon ride take? We'll put together a timeline for you based off the locations and activties you've picked, so on the day of you can just get lost in the moment instead of watching the clock.

Anyone on your team needs to be on board with your vision and understand the specific needs of a unique wedding day like yours. We'll send you personalized vendor recommendations to build your vendor team with professionals who fully understand your vision and cater specifically to non-traditional weddings.
Want to do a sunrise vow ceremony just the two of you, and then party with your friends that night? Need guidance on pulling off the perfect un-posed wedding party pre-ception? We gotchu. Your wedding plans are unlike anyone else's and not everyone is going to understand the unique needs of your day, so we're here to help you figure out everything, like when hair and makeup needs to be done so you can have a full hour for your first look.
Carolyn+Jake's packages include an epic adventure engagement shoot. If you don't need an engagement shoot or you're a little more budget conscious, Caroline's packages don't so you can pick the package that perfectly fits your needs!
