Elopement & Intimate Wedding Packages

for couples who crave wild experiences

and want a wedding that feels like an adventurous honeymoon

The Pinckards, adventurous mountain top elopement photographers and officiants

Adventurous elopements by Dan & Laura Pinckard — husband-and-wife adventurers who have been helping couples elope since 2018

Your wedding deserves more than a script

Most weddings follow a template.
A packed timeline. A crowded venue. A thousand eyes watching. A hundred traditions you didn’t ask for.

But your story?
It was never meant to be ordinary.

That’s why we create adventure elopements and intimate weddings that feel wildly personal, beautifully cinematic, and completely free from expectations.

You get to be fully present.
You get to slow down.
And you get to marry the love of your life in a place that makes your heart race.

You're not just booking a photographer

You’re investing in a team who will:

  • Plan with you, from your first idea to the last goodbye hug
  • Scout the perfect location, no matter how remote or epic
  • Capture it all, with a cinematic eye and story-first approach
  • Handle the logistics, so you can focus on each other
  • Celebrate your love, not perform for others

And because we’re a husband and wife team, we know what it’s like to want to do things your way. 

We found out the hard way that weddings are more about the guests than the couple.

Since then, we’ve photographed over 200 love stories. And we’re obsessed with helping couples trade the chaos for connection.

So what do our couples walk away with?

A wedding day they actually remember...

A cinematic film that feels like an epic movie...

Photos that look like art but feel the best day ever...

The experience of a lifetime, not just a ceremony.

You don't need to plan a performance.

You just need a place that feels like you — and people who can help you bring it to life.

Whether you’re dreaming of:

    • A sunrise cliffside vow exchange in the Pacific Northwest

    • A snow-covered escape to the Rockies

    • A tropical elopement with waterfall portraits

    • Or a private ceremony in a desert canyon under the stars

We’ll take your vision and turn it into a fully planned, fully documented, totally unforgettable reality.

How it works

Step 1 – Dream It Up
You bring us the big vision, or even just the feeling you want. We help you shape it into a real plan. Location ideas, timelines, logistics? Covered.

Step 2 – Plan & Personalize
We map out every detail. From permits and travel to personal vows and epic portrait locations — we make it stress-free and story-focused.

Step 3 – Show Up & Soak It In
You arrive. You breathe. You marry your person. And we capture it all as it naturally unfolds — with beauty, care, and intention.

This is your wedding day. You deserve to make it memorable.

Eloping isn't the "cheap" option

It’s the intentional one.

And just because you’re choosing simplicity doesn’t mean you’re settling.

Eloping is your chance to make your wedding more meaningful.

Our couples often invest more into their elopement than a traditional wedding… not because they have to, but because it actually matters to them.

They want fewer distractions, deeper connection, and a wedding that feels like their wildest, most honest selves.

And when it’s all said and done, they don’t remember the stress.

They remember the way the wind felt on their skin.
The way their partner looked during the vows.
The way it all felt so them.

That’s what we help create.

So if you’re ready to:

  • Turn your wedding into an epic adventure
  • Have an all-inclusive, fully guided experience
  • Capture it in a way that feels cinematic but deeply real
  • Actually enjoy every second of it

"No words feel quite enough to capture just how incredible the Pinckards are.

If you’re considering them for your wedding or elopement… stop reading this and book them now.

And the photos? Unreal. We were already blown away by the sneak peeks—and then the full gallery landed in our inbox and left us speechless. It’s been months since the wedding, and we still find ourselves pulling up the pictures weekly (sometimes daily), just to relive that perfect day. Somehow, they captured not just how it looked, but how it felt.

"Dan and Laura were amazing, and I seriously can’t recommend them enough!

They’re just really great people. Spending the day with them felt easy—they’re funny, down-to-earth, and just fun to be around. If you’re looking for an elopement photographer, videographer, planner (and more) who you actually want to hang out with all day, go with Dan and Laura!”

"Dan & Laura were hands down the easiest & BEST decision while planning our elopement."

They are both a dream to work with, and are all around wonderful. We can’t begin to express how great our experience was with Laura and Dan. They are both very personable, professional, kind, and truly care about your vision.

"Laura and Dan made our elopement incredibly memorable."

They were very thoughtful in helping us brainstorm the day, provided suggestions for location, time table, and it was convenient that Dan is ordained to legally marry couples! 

Not to mention, their artistic lens is one-of-a-kind. Working with the Pinckards has given us memories to last a lifetime.”
