Six Hours of Adventure Elopement Photography and Film
This adventure elopement photography and video package gives you six hours of coverage from a combined photo and video team for $7,600. Known as the half day option, it is the short but sweet experience, typically ceremony focused, with frontcountry friendly locations. It suits simple ceremonies, local elopements, casual adventures and comfort-minded hosts who want a relaxed pace.
The package helps you focus on what matters most without feeling too minimalist. The team handles scouting, permit research and timeline design ahead of time, so on the day you can stay present while they document the vows, the setting and the quiet moments around them in both fine art photos and cinematic 4k film.

Keepsakes You Can Hold
The team believes in printing photographs, so a collection of prints in a wood keepsake box and an archival USB drive come with every package. The print boxes are made from repurposed walnut and etched with your names, the coordinates of your wedding location and a topographic map of the place you spoke your vows.
The archival USB drives are custom engraved and meant to keep your files safe for decades. Your film also includes professional sound recording, so you hear the shaky words of your vows and the sounds of the place around you in high definition audio. Fine art albums printed on heavy paper and bound in leather or cloth are always available.
Why One Photo and Video Team Helps
The photographer and videographer work as one unified team, so they move in sync instead of competing for the same shot or ending up in the background of each other's frames. Your gallery and your film share the same color grading, bold tones and storytelling style, so the two feel like parts of a single story rather than the work of two separate companies.
Hiring a combined team also simplifies planning. You have one point of contact, one contract and one collaborative timeline, with photo and video needs given equal priority all day. The team uses a shared language for direction, capturing movement for video and stills for photos at the same moment, so you never repeat a walk or a kiss for different vendors.
Planning Support Built Into Every Package
Every package includes flexible weather backup plans. The team books only one wedding per week, so if weather turns extreme or a wildfire affects the area, they can pivot. They plan with up to the hour regional weather reports, moon calendars and solar events, and they bring umbrellas, tents and a pre-arranged Plan B location that is meant to be just as good as the original plan.
The team also helps with the paperwork and logistics that outdoor ceremonies require. Most National Parks, State Parks and some National Forest lands require a Special Use Permit for a ceremony, and permit assistance is included. You also get lodging research, permit guidance and a custom timeline, activity plan and packing list tailored to your abilities and interests.
If you want the day to be legally official, one team member is ordained and the other can serve as a witness, so they can sign your marriage license application when needed. The team does not preside over the ceremony itself, which keeps the focus on your vows.
Who You Are Hiring
This is a woman owned, LGBTQ+ friendly photo and video team based in Columbia, near Yosemite National Park, specializing in Yosemite, the Sierra Nevada and the Grand Canyon and available worldwide. The team members are Wilderness First Responders who follow Leave No Trace principles, and they draw on a decade of navigating the outdoors to keep your wedding day steady and safe.
The team is five-star rated by past clients, who describe responsive and clear communication, creative location choices and editing, and a day that felt like an adventure rather than a photoshoot. Reviewers also mention feeling safe and seen. Galleries usually hold between 200 and 400 hand retouched images, and every edit is done by hand with no presets.
Travel and Pricing
There are no travel fees within California, so the package budget stays predictable for celebrations anywhere in the state. For weddings outside California or outside the country, travel is priced up front in your quote. Each booking starts with a free planning consultation, after which the team sends a proposal, contract and payment plan for you to review before you commit.
