HEY, IT'S KARLIE!
YOUR ELOPEMENT EXPERT
​
​
I've photographed elopement after elopement, and when I hear my clients say, "I'm so glad we did this!" That's what I want for your wedding day, instead of you being glad it's over.
​
No matter what adventure you have in mind, I'll be there with you every step up the mountain. I've always been up for anything to get amazing photographs, so you can find me ziplining with you, exploring national parks by your side, waking up at sunrise for the most amazing views, or hiding in between trees to get cool framing of you saying your vows.
ELOPING ISN'T LESS. IT'S SO MUCH MORE.
​
Eloping allows you:
​
☑ Space to be yourselves and to share private moments not in front of an audience
​
☑ Freedom from meaningless traditions
​
☑ To celebrate in a way that's unique to your relationship
​
☑ To invest into details and a day that truly makes you happy
​
and so. much. more. I am your biggest cheerleader for you choosing to elope. I promise you won't regret it.
​
SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
Why work with Karlie?
Along with being your photographer, I'm here to be your biggest support. When your inquiry hit my inbox and you said you wanted to elope, I just want to jump up and down with excitement. I'm so proud of you for not being afraid to do what makes you happy for your wedding day! That in itself can be really hard for some, but it shows that you put what matters most to you first. And doing that for your wedding day should be no exception.
​
And along with this, I'm here to make this as easy as possible for you by providing guidance, personalized help and assistance, and most of all to provide you with a stress free and unforgettable elopement experience. Need vendor recommendations to help find the perfect florist for your vision? What about finding out if we need a permit to elope in the mountains? Or how about marriage license requirements? Whatever you need, I'm here to be your 24/7 planning assistant and stress reliever. I'm here to help you create an experience that you will never forget!
HERE'S HOW THE PROCESS WORKS
I totally get it, you are choosing to do something new that might be a little scary and unknown. You may be afraid of figuring out how to do this whole eloping thing. It's super important to me to help you and lead you in the right direction, so let me lay out the process in how this all works for you in 5 easy steps!
​
1) PICK A DATE AND LOCATION FOR YOUR ELOPEMENT
While we are on the phone, I'll see if you have a date and a general location picked out. If you don't, don't worry! I can help you pick a date and we can research and find the perfect location for your elopement together.
​
2) UNLIMITED PLANNING AND ASSISTANCE
Once you are officially booked, I'll send an exclusive client planning folder with a ton of super helpful resources to help us co-create your dream elopement. With guides, checklists, and questionnaires, I want to learn about you and help you plan a day that's unique and special to you.
​
3) TIMELINE CREATION
Once we have a good idea of what your day will consist of, I'll arrange it all neatly into a timeline. I'll make sure there's plenty of buffer time, and I'll let you know all the best times for light at our locations in the planning process, which makes for a seamless timeline for gorgeous photos.
​
4) YOUR GREATEST ADVENTURE YET IS HERE
After all the planning we did together, your date is all of a sudden here! I can't wait to document your dream day. Since we made sure to include things that you love, the day won't be an all day photo shoot. It'll be a day that will fly by so fast because you're having so much fun! I'll direct you naturally in photos so you won't be overly posed. I'll just be capturing you truly enjoying your day.
5) TIME TO VIEW THE PHOTOS
After your incredible adventure, I'll deliver 30+ sneak peek images so you can share with family and friends within 72 hours of your day. The rest of the images will be ready within 6 weeks. You'll have access to gorgeous high quality print products and a stunning online gallery filled with all of the images from your day to relive your adventure again and again.

WHAT IT'S LIKE TO ELOPE IN NORTH IDAHO WITH KARLIE
"We are so grateful we found Karlie to help us plan and capture our wedding day!! She was truly the best to work with. We are from Texas and it was our first time traveling to Idaho! Karlie was such a big help in providing local recommendations for things like hikes, ceremony locations, places to stay and eat, things to do, how to get our marriage license, etc. This took so much stress off of us while planning!
Karlie was extremely communicative throughout the entire booking and planning process, which we greatly appreciated. Our wedding day was so much fun!! We had a beautiful lakeside ceremony, trekked up a very steep hike on a very hot day (so worth it for the incredible views and photos on Chilco Mountain!), then had a few drinks and some cake at a local brewery. Karlie felt like a close friend the entire day and we loved having her tag along to capture every moment! We are absolutely obsessed with all of our images and feel like we are reliving that day everytime we look at them. Don’t hesitate!! Book Karlie ASAP! You won’t regret it :)"

- Keira and Mark
WHY YOU DESERVE TO HAVE AN ALL DAY ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE
Even if it's just the two of you.
And no, I don't mean an all day photo shoot. As much as I love photos, I would never make this solely about the photos. The photos are the cherry on top of the experience we create together.
​
I truly believe that you deserve at least one full day to celebrate your marriage together. It's still a very important day, even if you're eloping, because let me assure you: eloping isn't less, it's so. much. more.
​
Even if you don't want to hike all day to make your day last longer, I'll be there to suggest activities that you want to do, and not what you don't. You can still have an all day experience with a relaxed timeline. You can have a breakfast picnic, lay in a hammock, stargaze, or eat pizza by a fire. The options are endless whether you want an adventurous day in the mountains or a relaxed day to spend together.
​
Let me help you plan an all day elopement experience that you'll enjoy every moment of. You deserve to celebrate and have it documented all day because:
​
☑ Photos are timeless, and photos are all you'll have to look back on to help you remember every detail.
​
☑ From start to finish, every aspect of your day is important. Not just the ceremony.
​
☑ Anything and everything you invest in deserves to be remembered.
​
☑ You'll want photos to look back to help you remember how you felt, and to share with future generations and family.
Example All Day Timeline:
​
-
7:00 am - Wake up and get ready in your Airbnb for your hike. You pack up a breakfast picnic to have on the back deck of your rental.
-
8:00 am - Leave for trailhead.
-
9:00 am - Arrive at trailhead to hike to a spot in the mountains you love.
-
10:30 am - Arrive at overlook for a morning commitment ceremony.
-
11:00 am - You're married! Woo! You two go off exploring and hiking around the area while enjoying some time together just the two of you. You take in the surrounding sights.
-
1:00 pm - We hike back down to the car and drive to the lake for an afternoon kayak session with some snacks and yummy drinks to tie us over.
-
3:00 pm - After some relaxing kayaking, we drive to a picnic area and are met with a lunch setup prepared by a local event coordinator, complete with food by a local chef and cake!
-
5:00 pm - After a full meal, you brought some letters from family and read them together.
-
6:00 pm - Then we drive to an easy access spot in the mountains for golden hour photos.
-
7:00 pm - To finish off the night we head back to the Airbnb nestled in the woods, and it has a gorgeous back deck with string lights and a hot tub. You guys enjoy it together under the stars.​​​

NORTH IDAHO ELOPEMENT PACKAGES
ULTIMATE 2 DAY ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE
$6000
What's All Included:
2 Customized Days of Documentation (18 hours split up over 2 days)
This package is a perfect option if you want to get the best of both worlds. For example, if you want to spend a good full day hiking and adventuring just the two of you, day 1 would work great for this. Then for day 2, if you want to include a good group of family with you on your elopement, this day would allow you time to spend with them, instead of trying to do a hike and a full ceremony together with your family on the same day. You can have a full ceremony, as well as a more traditional type of reception if you wanted. You could do a fun catered dinner and you can spend the evening with your family. The 18 hours can be split up however you want it, either 9 and 9, 10 and 8, 6 and 12, etc.

HALF DAY ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE
$3800
What's All Included:
6 Hours of Elopement Documentation
This package is for a just a half day’s worth of coverage. This package may work for you if you're wanting something super simple that doesn't involve any large hikes, and most of the day's activities would have to take place nearby. This will give you coverage of just the main parts of your day, and everything would have to be somewhat local to fit everything in this time frame. You could likely still fit in getting ready photos, ceremony, and one or two local activities in this timeframe. This is another good base package to book if you’re unsure, but it doesn’t come with the Custom Wooden Box or the Polaroids.
