Into the backcountry, with the whole day planned for you.
Wild Private Locations
Alpine basins, ridgelines and aspen groves — a shortlist of three to five real options, scouted, with access and permit requirements checked for each.
Just the Two of You
No timeline to perform for. We move at your pace and let the day actually happen.
Every Frame Delivered
10–20 sneak-peek photos within 48 hours, then the fully edited gallery of the whole day — first light to last — within three weeks.
All couples welcome, and hiking is never required — there's a version of this close to the road. Travel beyond Colorado is welcome too; ask about destination elopements.
What an elopement shoot looks like with Peter
How an elopement comes together.
The location shortlist
Bring a place, or start from nothing — Peter shortlists three to five real options and lays out the access, the walking distance, and the permit picture for each. Where a permit is required, you'll know exactly which one and where to apply.
The itinerary
A written plan for the day: timing built around the light, travel and approach time, and a backup location on standby for weather, wildfire, or closures. Peter checks the plan with you about a week out and again 48 hours before.
The coverage
Quiet, documentary photography in natural light — the day as it actually happens, not a shot list performed for the camera.
The delivery
10–20 sneak-peek photos within 48 hours, and the full edited gallery within three weeks — password-protected online for six months.
Hiking is never required — there's an ordinary, close-to-the-road version of every step, and all couples are welcome.
