Kind words from Meaghan + drew

"Her ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera makes the entire experience so fun and you get such natural photos"

"From someone who typically never likes photos of themselves, Vanessa was able to capture so many photos that I absolutely adore! She is so kind and cares so deeply about making sure her clients are happy and will go above and beyond especially when the weather is not cooperating.

Vanessa is super communicative and guides you through the entire process. Her ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera makes the entire experience so fun and you get such natural photos. I cannot recommend her enough!"

"My husband and I are no where near naturals in front of the camera and yet Vanessa effortlessly guided us through the whole process and made us feel so comfortable."

kind words from hayley + taylor

"Do not hesitate on choosing Vanessa! She is kind, knows her craft, is super talented and is wholeheartedly invested in capturing the most beautiful photos for you! Vanessa has now taken both my engagement and anniversary photos and they are easily some of my favorite photos I’ve ever had taken. My husband and I are no where near naturals in front of the camera and yet Vanessa effortlessly guided us through the whole process and made us feel so comfortable. If you’re looking for someone who is invested in capturing the best for you, she’s your girl!"

"Not only did she hike up a mountain at dawn for us, she captured our ceremony beautifully despite pretty crazy wind!"

kind words from asha + matthew

"Vanessa photographed our COVID elopement and was incredible! Not only did she hike up a mountain at dawn for us, she captured our ceremony beautifully despite pretty crazy wind! The photo turnaround was (incredibly) quick and we have the most gorgeous photos for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!"

ADVENTUROUS | WARM | INTENTIONAL | THOUGHT-PROVOKING | ROMANTIC | TIMELESS

I can't wait to pet him/her!

Did you know that most of my couples choose to have their dogs on their day? Or that they're allowed in some state parks and even a select amount of trails in our national park system? Pretty damn cool.

Let's find a dog friendly Airbnb and let your other babe be part of the festivities. We can take portraits with your pup and then hand him or her over to a trusted member of the family for some of the day. Freakin' awesome if you ask me!

we want to bring our dog!

Let me guess, you want your dog with you on your day? Great!

Some of my favorite places outside New Hampshire include Acadia National Park, Alaska, the pacific northwest, and the southwest.

All my personal travel fees are included to make life nice and easy. No need to worry about your photographer getting there!

I'm based in New Hampshire but will travel to any and all the national parks in the United States.

Want to elope somewhere epic?!

Nope! Part of the magic that comes with receiving your photos from me is seeing them as a finished product. Think of getting RAWS as the ingredients to your meal instead of the finished plate at a restaurant. Nobody wants that!

+ Do you ever give out RAW images?

There are so many different ways to "break" the news to your family if you're nervous of their reactions. I'm here to help and be your resource. For example, you can host a dinner party and let them know, invite them by doing something special together, or send cards after you've actually eloped. We'll talk all about your family members and how to properly "break" the news for each one.

+ How do we tell our family?

During my busy season, expect to wait 12-16 weeks for your elopement gallery. Depending on your coverage, expect anywhere from 450-800 photographs.

+ What is your turnaround time? How many images should I expect?

You bet I can. Upon booking, I send you a detailed questionnaire that helps me collect all the details that will make up your elopement day.. After collecting that information, I'll show you some amazing options and activities.

+ Can you help us choose a location?

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Do you offer payment plans?

+ do you offer prints or albums?

Yes! Once your agreement is signed through Honeybook, I take a 50% non-refundable deposit. Then 25% is due six months before your day and 25% is due two months before your day. I'm a true believer that each couple deserves amazing photos.

Of course I do! Once you receive your full gallery from me, please feel free to checkout the online store. You can order everything from prints, canvases, albums, and more. I'll walk you through the process and also create custom albums designs.
