Eloping in Florida means embracing the laid-back vibe and letting go of the stress that often comes with traditional weddings. It's about focusing on what truly matters—your love and the beginning of your journey together. Whether you're envisioning a quiet ceremony by the water's edge or a romantic evening under swaying palms, Florida offers endless possibilities to create a day that's as unique as your love story. So, if you're ready to exchange vows in a place that feels like paradise and create memories that will last forever, Florida is the place.
Planning an elopement can be overwhelming, with so many beautiful locations and experiences to choose from. That's where I come in.
As your photographer and guide, I'll help you:
My passion for elopement photography began after my own experience. I know how crucial it is to find the right photographer, so I dedicate myself to providing not just stunning images but an unforgettable experience. I'm your cheerleader, travel buddy, and planner all in one, ready to make your elopement the Adventure of a lifetime.
I am a born and raised Floridian which means you get all of my years of experience living in the Sunshine State. I know where all the best spots are and I can guide you through everything you'll need for a perfect elopement day.
Plan a sunset sail, a snorkeling trip, a beach picnic, or even an airboat ride in the Everglades. Make your day as adventurous as your love story, ensuring it's memorable and enjoyable, not just picture-perfect.
Even though you're eloping, there are still details to manage, like obtaining your marriage license, securing location permits, and arranging for any necessary witnesses. Make a checklist to ensure a stress-free celebration, or you can download ours for free here.
Florida's weather can be unpredictable, especially with its tropical climate. Bring light, breathable clothing for the heat, and remember waterproof gear for those sudden rain showers. Prepare for your outdoor elopement by checking the weather forecast and packing accordingly.
Elopements are intimate by nature, so personalize your celebration. Write your own vows, choose meaningful music, and incorporate special touches that reflect your relationship. Whatever it is that makes you two unique as a couple, include it.
Whether you're drawn to the vibrant beaches of Miami, the tropical vibes of the Florida Keys, or the historic charm of St. Augustine, pick a location that reflects your personality and love story. You won't regret finding the perfect spot that really represents who you are as a couple.
A great photographer can help you plan your elopement, guide you through getting necessary permits, scout out the best locations, and capture stunning photos that you'll cherish forever. Make sure you're hiring someone who knows the area well and can help with these elements, especially where safety is concerned. This is what I do for all my couples eloping in Florida.
All of my travel is included in each package. So I will find my way there if I have to fly, roadtrip, or teleport to your elopement!
You get my best recommendations (for clients only) on where to go for that perfect elopement of your dreams. I'll double-check that your location is still good to go leading up to your day.
I'll have everything planned so your adventure can go off without a hitch. I figure out how long we will need so you can go on that epic hike AND catch that perfect sunset for your vow exchange.
You’ll receive a guide about your location with recommended spots for your ceremony, best times to visit, helpful tips, places to stay, things to do & vendor recs
A super easy way to access your photos from any device. You can download your images, share your gallery, and order speciality prints and wall art.
It's not your job to keep time on your elopement day, Your only job is to enjoy which is why I keep track of our schedule & make sure we get to where we're going.
"My wife discovered Jessica through instagram after we decided to get eloped in St. Augustine, Florida. A charming place we absolutely fell in love with that now shares a special place in our memories and our hearts. Initially what attracted us to Jessica were not just the photos, but the photo concepts Jessica creates ie. the double exposures, which are absolutely phenomenal. But as it turns out as well, Jessica has a vast network of vendors who helped create a beautiful memory of the special day by producing the most stunning flower arrangements, wedding cake design, and romantic beachside picnic setting, as well as an officiant who provided a memorable and touching ceremony.
Jessica, became like family for the brief moments we were all together! She blended in and captured all of us in an authentic way. She helped us curate a wonderful day in the most beautiful setting and will forever be a part of our story. What she captured was timeless memories that brought two families together in an intimate ceremony. She helped map out the site (and a plan B site) without any of us ever seeing it in person as well as the perfect timeline. She took the time to video conference several times to work through some of the details. She also developed a list of lodging, florists, make-up artists, catering, etc… that saved us hours of research and guess work! Thank you Jessica for helping us with our wedding/elopement day!
Working with Jessica was such a smooth process! She really took her time in making sure she understood exactly what shots and angles we wanted to capture. Day of we’re a little nervous because we’ve never had professional pictures taken and are usually pretty shy in front of a camera. It was a super fun session and she made us feel very comfortable. We now have beautiful pictures to remember our day
