As I scrolled through the photos from Evan and Jason's adventure elopement in Sedona, Arizona, I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement. The images captured the essence of their day - the thrill of embarking on a new journey together, the stunning backdrop of the red rocks at sunset, and the love and joy shared with their closest friends and family. If you're wondering what an adventure elopement is, these photos will tell you.


Evan and Jason spent the morning at a local Airbnb with their closest friends relaxing in the hot tub and having some drinks to prepare themselves for the day. Wearing a beautiful Rue De Seine wedding dress, white cowboy boots and a flawless dried floral bouquet, Evan looked like a bohemian princess. Jason wore a custom burgundy suit that popped just as much as the natural red hue in Sedona's well known rocks.

To get to this location you have to have a 4x4 vehicle and it was a heck of a ride!! Their family and friends booked a jeep tour up to the location by Pink Jeeps and they were having a blast! Just look at their faces in the pictures! lol! They loved it. I 100% would recommend Pink Jeep Tours.


The ceremony was on a cliffside with a sunset view that looks like it was hand painted by God himself just for them. He every blew lots wind our way to create a dramatic affect. lol. The rugged terrain of the desert, the wind blowing through Evan's hair as she exchanged vows with Jason, it was like something out of a movie. The way the light danced off the rocks, casting a warm glow over the ceremony, it was pure magic.

The night ended with Evan, Jason, the maid of honor and I rocking out to some Jimmy Eat World, Blink 182 and other nostalgic early 2000's punk rock bands and eating some amazing catered food back at the Airbnb.


Eloping is about stepping out of your comfort zone, embracing the unknown, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. And as a photographer, I am grateful for the opportunity to capture these moments and share them with the world. Cheers to love, adventure, and the beauty of the great outdoors.
