Welcome Fellow Gallivanters
…and congratulations!!!
I’m excited to photograph the special moments of your elopement or micro-wedding day.
Consider me your personal assistant throughout your wedding adventure. Let’s work together to create your dream elopement!
Undoubtedly a nine on the Enneagram, I bring reassurance and calm to the wedding planning process. I’ll keep energy vibrations high and ease nerves so we can collab to create a stunning collection of photographs. You’ll be able to reflect and reminisce on your special day forever.
Let’s do this!
Ready to get this Big Adventure started?
Hey There! I’m Andrea!
And I help adventurous souls Celebrate Their Day – their Way!
Let Me Tell You A Little Bit About Myself…
I’m a thrill-seeking, Chilean-born Colorado photographer who loves capturing elopements and intimate weddings – especially when they are part of an adventure!
Forever chasing wanderlust, I feel the most alive when exploring the remote backcountry where there isn’t another soul for days. I grew up getting lost in the wilderness of my native country, Chile. And I bring this same sense of adventure to my elopements — scoping out those hidden, secret spots perfect for an off-the-beaten-path adventure wedding.
The best spots are the ones that captivate all the senses. Envision still, mirrored lakes, fragrant pine, star-swept skies, and rustling, golden fall leaves.
Discovering secret hikes in remote corners of the world is a skill I’m proud of! I prefer tent-camping to hotels, eating with locals in a little mountain town in the middle of Morocco over fancy restaurants, and sipping tea inside a remote cave with Bedouins over the typical tourist activities in Petra, Jordan.
If you’re daydreaming of an epic, heart-pounding adventure for your elopement, I’m a photographer who can keep up! An avid trail runner, I’ve scaled 14,000-foot mountains, volunteered in Africa for water projects, and backpacked for eight months in North Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.
I know my home state of Colorado like the back of my hand and love capturing weddings here. However, if you’re unsure you want to elope in Colorado, I’ll travel wherever your dreams take you. A globetrotter at heart, I've traveled to over 20 countries and helped countless couples create their dream weddings and elopements all over Colorado, Utah, Patagonia, and the world. Speaking of Patagonia, reach out about year-round packages with my Associate Photographer.
I'm so excited to get to know YOU and help plan your unforgettable adventure together!
How Many Hous Do You Need?
Every package includes the same foundational design process, but the depth evolves with more time:
Shorter coverage → focused, intentional flow
Longer coverage → layered storytelling, activities & flexibility
Multi-day → an immersive, experience-first design
You’re not choosing a package.
You’re choosing how much space your story gets.
Every Elopement Experience Includes:
• All the best images, thoughtfully curated
Within a few days, you'll receive several Sneak Peeks (because I know ALL about that anticipation). Then, your entire online gallery will follow for easy downloading, printing, and sharing. This collection of fully edited, high-resolution photos tells the full story of your day—from the big, emotional moments to the quiet in-between ones and the landscapes that held it all.
• Custom Elopement Design & Planning Support
Let’s design your day as a team! Through intentional video calls and a deep questionnaire, I get to know you, your story, and what matters most, all while keeping everything organized in one place. After that, I make planning super easy with things like permit facilitation, gear guides (what to wear and what to bring), suggestions for pre- and post-ceremony activities, and more!
• Hiking Options in Every Package
Adventure is always part of the experience! Whether it’s a short walk or a longer hike, we’ll choose something that feels exciting but still true to you.
• Location & Timeline Guidance
I help you build a timeline around light, weather, and flow, so your day feels natural and unrushed-not like you’re watching the clock. I'm here to help you stay on track.
• Vendor Recommendations
Having photographed over 250 weddings of all sizes, I’ve curated a list of the best hair + makeup artists, florists, bakeries, venues, and even dressmakers. These recommendations will save you so much time throughout the planning process.
• 360° Video Clips & GFs
A simple, immersive way to relive your day or share it with loved ones if you’re not hiring a videographer. Honest, real, and in the moment.
• Travel Included
I handle my own travel, so there are no extra logistics or surprise fees for you to consider.
• Gentle Posing Guidance & Direction
You don’t need to know how to pose. I’ll guide you in a relaxed, natural way so you can focus on each other, not the camera.
• A Calm, Grounded Presence Throughout the Day
From planning to the final moments, I’m there to hold space and keep things steady, so you can stay present and soak it all in.
About 360° Video Coverage
"As if the photos weren't already so beautiful, seeing it again as a video is simply breathtaking 🥹🥹🤯🤯 Thank you so so much 🫶”
360° footage is a raw, short video clip, similar to a GoPro—perfect if you don’t have the budget for a videographer.
How is 360° Coverage Different From Phone Footage?
360° footage captures everything at once.
Unlike phone videos, which record only what’s in front of the lens, a 360° camera records the entire environment around you. That means the landscape, the people, the energy, and you in it—all in one immersive clip. It’s also super stable & high-quality, kind of like a GoPro. Feel free to take it with you to record a virtual diary of your day!
Details:
Records a full, immersive view of your elopement
Lets you look around after the day—not just watch it
Captures the scale of the landscape and the intimacy of the moment
Perfect for sharing with family who couldn’t be there
Allows you to send a message like:
“This is where we got married,”—and they can explore it themselves
Disclaimer: 360° clips are not edited films or cinematic movies.
More Than Just a Photographer
I am your advisor, planning assistant, logistics fairy, and friend!
Seriously, I’m passionate about what I do and making magic happen!
I love to listen and hear about your dream, your story, and your adventure for your wedding. I want to know what you and your partner enjoy and what is important to you.
We’ll work to envision your day your way and bring to life your wedding day dreams.
Picture this: From sipping coffee to driving to the trailhead or your ceremony site, blasting your favorite tunes, I’ll capture all of your special moments.
So whether it’s getting your pack on with your wedding dress, boots, and flowers, saying your vows, making a champagne toast, putting the ring on your partner’s finger, or dancing under a starlit sky, those memories and so much more will be there.
Each time you look back on this day, your photographs will bring all the feels to life! Candid hugs with family and friends, laughter, and happy tears will fill the photos. And while I love a natural photo, of course, if there’s a picture you want to include, we’ll work to make it happen!
Here’s How Your Adventure begins!
Permits + Location Planning + Booking Vendors + More!
I will suggest locations that will provide an epic wedding adventure! I’ve scouted numerous places and know what time of day is best for light, how many people might be there, and what kind of weather you can expect. You pick the one that works best for you and your partner. Here are just a few ideas:
Hike up to a crystal-blue alpine lake
Take a Jeep tour through alpine forests
Hike to a spectacular waterfall, lake, mountain meadow or overlook
Find a spot for a dramatic sunrise or sunset
Have a picnic, BBQ or intimate celebration with your close friends and family
Try kayaking, paddle boarding, boating, skiing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing
Enjoy moments around a campfire
If you're having trouble settling on the right adventure, let me know and we’ll sit down and explore the options together!
Are you looking for a longer list? Check out my ultimate list of elopement ideas!
Even if you’re looking for a more laid-back wedding, perhaps at a luxurious VRBO, a historic mansion, or a more traditional wedding venue, I'll be there to guide, help plan, and capture everything important to you!
Once we’ve made some of the bigger choices about your Big Day, I will:
Send you a locations list for both the ceremony and multiple portraits
Guide you with information for you to obtain permits that may be required for our photoshoots
Provide a list of vendors that you may want or need
However you imagine your day unfolding, I am honored to document it.
And remember: You don’t have to follow traditions – you can break all the rules! This day is 100% YOURS.
Custom-Designed Elopement Experiences
Intentional. Guided. Built Around How You Want to Feel.
Every elopement begins the same way—with connection, not coverage.
We start with intentional video calls (inquiry video calls) where we slow things down, and I get to know you better. We talk about your relationship, your values, how you love, and what matters most to you—not just what your day looks like, but why it matters.
Then, you’ll receive a deep, thoughtfully designed questionnaire. This is a safe space to tell me the nitty-gritty details about your love story- your dreams, desires, emotions, and quiet hopes. Everything is kept in one organized place, so no detail is lost or overlooked.
Imagine looking at your wedding album and reliving all of the raw, intimate, and playful moments. Those moments happen when you feel comfortable being your authentic selves, which is way easier the more I get to know you. I also aim to be as discreet as possible — like a fly on the wall, quietly documenting every special detail.

What Couples Usually Worry About
(and Don’t Need To)
“We’re awkward in front of the camera.”
You don’t need to know how to pose. I guide you gently so everything feels natural, relaxed, and true to you.
“We don’t know how to plan an elopement.”
That’s exactly why I’m here. From our first video call to your final timeline, you’re supported every step of the way.
“What if the day feels rushed?”
Your experience is designed around time, light, and flow—so you can slow down and actually live your day.
“We want adventure, but not chaos.”
Hiking and exploration are always intentional and adjusted to your comfort level.
“We’re not having a videographer—will we miss that?”
The 360° clips allow you to relive and share your day in an honest, immersive way—without pressure or production.

P.S. A Note About Giving Back
As a passionate advocate for our planet, I am committed to preserving its beauty and vitality. This is why I practice “Leave No Trace” principles at every session, ensuring that our impact on the environment is minimal.
I believe in giving back, which is why I donate a portion of my profits to organizations that share my values. For instance, as a humanitarian and photojournalist, I volunteered in Africa to document a well-installation project, bringing clean water to remote villages in Zambia.
Our world is such a beautiful place, and I want to do everything in my power to keep it that way. I am proud to support the National Park Foundation, working to protect and enhance America’s national parks for present and future generations.
These are just some reasons why I donate to each of these organizations. See one that speaks to you? Let me know, and I’ll ensure that the proceeds from your photo session go toward that organization. Together, we can make a difference!
