Elopement Packages
For the Lovers Who Dream Beyond the Ordinary
There’s something powerful about choosing your own way.
The best stories don’t always follow the usual path, and your wedding day doesn’t have to either. If you’re dreaming of something quieter, more meaningful, and completely true to you, you’re in the right place.
Imagine a cliff at golden hour, a canyon lit by sunrise, or a quiet grove in the woods. Just the two of you (and maybe a few close loved ones), fully present in a day designed around your story. Every look, every laugh, every pause captured with care.
That’s what I’m here for: to help you create a day that feels real, unrushed, and fully yours. You don’t have to figure it all out alone.
Let’s make space for a day that you’ll not only remember but truly feel. One where your only job is to show up and be in love.
Your Fairy-Tale, Told Through My Lens
Helping You Create a Meaningful Elopement with Just the Right Amount of Magic
Eloping is stepping into something new, exciting, a little uncertain, and completely your own. You want a day that feels true to who you are, intentional, relaxed, and full of meaning. That’s where I come in, camera in hand, here to support you every step of the way.
I’m not just documenting the day, I’m helping you shape the space where real moments can happen. With calm guidance, creative intuition, and a steady presence, I’ll help you stay grounded, enjoy the experience, and focus on what really matters: the two of you.
You want a photographer who gets you.
Not just someone taking pictures, but someone who sees the quiet, meaningful moments and understands what matters to you. I’m here to be a steady, thoughtful presence. Someone you can trust to capture your story with care and intention.
You want guidance, not stiff poses.
You need someone who understands light, timing, and when to step in or step back. I’ll guide the flow of the day without forcing it, giving space for real moments to happen naturally while guiding you when it is needed!
You want help planning.
I’ll help you create the most amazing day by brainstorming with you and drawing on my expertise to craft a fun, relaxing experience. I provide help with obtaining permits, licenses, location scouting, etc. I am also happy to help find and vet any other vendors you may want for your day!
KIND WORDS
“We will cherish the photos and the magically fun experience that we had for the rest of our lives.”
-Franklin & Sofia
Everything You Need for a Legendary Love Story
Coverage for the Full Experience
Whether your elopement is one epic day or spread out over a few, I offer 6+ hour and multi-day coverage. From sunrise hikes to vows under the stars, I’ll be there to capture it all, every real, meaningful moment.
Calm, Creative Elopement Support
Someone who knows how to read the moment, adjust as things unfold, and keep the day flowing without pressure. I’m here to help guide things gently, with space for spontaneity and time to just be present.
Location Scouting & Permit Help
I’ll help you find the perfect spot. Whether it’s a well-known view or a quiet hidden gem, and guide you through any permit requirements so you can focus on the experience, not the paperwork.
Curated Vendor Recommendations
You don’t have to figure it all out yourself. I’ll connect you with trusted florists, HMUAs, officiants, musicians, and more. People I know and trust (or have been vetted by other vendors I know) to show up with heart and professionalism, so your day comes together smoothly and feels true to you.
My Travel Included to Anywhere in the USA
Whether you’re eloping in the red rocks of Sedona, the mountains, or by the coast, I’ll come to you. Travel within the U.S. is already included, so you can focus on the adventure, not the logistics.
GIFs (Living Images)
I’ll include custom GIFs to bring those little moments back to life in a fun, shareable way.
Beautiful, User-Friendly Online Gallery
You’ll get all your photos in a clean, easy-to-use gallery. Download, share, or order prints directly. No hassle, just a simple way to enjoy and relive your day.
Personal Printing Rights
You’ll have full printing rights to your images, so you can print them anywhere you’d like. That said, the gallery shop is your best bet for quality. It is calibrated to my edits and uses premium papers, so your photos look exactly as they should.
Custom Album Design (Optional)
Your story deserves more than just a digital gallery. I offer custom-designed albums that turn your favorite moments into a beautifully crafted keepsake. Something you can hold, flip through, and pass down for years to come.
“Her demeanor was very relaxed and easy going, so we didn’t have any stress when the unexpected arose (like rain, mud, and thrown off timing). She even seemed to enjoy the opportunity to get creative when things got unpredictable!”
– Shelby & Baron

Love Notes
Kwynn + Nick
“I don’t know where to begin because Hillary is beyond amazing!!! Being from out of state for our elopement Hillary did everything to help us coordinate it all from location, rentals, vendor suggestions, timeline, you name it! She was on top of everything, made sure the day ran smoothly, and had the best suggestions. Hillary is such a sweet and calming presence which is exactly what I needed on my special day. I was so excited to see our sneak speaks only a day after but when I got the full gallery I was blown away by the quality, detail, and the wonderful candid moments that were captured. If you are considering Hillary she will not disappoint!!!!!”
Amanda + John
“Look no further if you’re in need of an amazing elopement style photographer. I feel so lucky I stumbled upon Joy Wander Photography by pure luck. Hillary went above & beyond by making sure we had an amazing experience & our needs were met even down to even the smallest little details. Her sweet personality made it easy and effortless. Our photos turned out beautifully. I’m so pleased!!”
ALYsha + Adam
“If I could keep Hillary in my pocket forever, I would. She made this whole elopement process a breeze from beginning to end! She answered every question I had, when I had them. Hillary made sure to stay in touch sending us reminders with important details of our elopement every few weeks leading up to the day. When we finally got to meet her she exceeded our expectations there too. It truly felt like we were just hanging out with a friend who happened to be taking our photos. She made us feel so comfortable and really let us all just be who we were.. and the photos…… TO DIE FOR. I cannot stop raving about Hillary & her work and should we ever cross paths again in needing a photographer in her area – she is absolutely it.”
