Surrounded by scenery that makes your heart sing, where you feel completely free to share your raw emotions in your vows.

Where you are comfortable and relaxed because there’s no pressure to be anywhere but the present, or to act a certain way.

Can you imagine the joy you would feel with a wedding epxerience experience that prioritizes peace and time to actually live in the moment?

That’s exactly the kind of elopement experience I can help you have!

Meet Your Idaho Elopement Photographer & Experience Guide

Hey there, I’m Tiana!

Sure, my main title is “elopement photographer”, but taking photos is only part of what I do. My number one goal is to be a blessing to you so that you can have a wedding experience that’s so incredible you can’t sleep at night in anticipation, not one you’re waiting to be over.

Think of me as your guide to your dream elopement. I’ll walk you through everything you need to plan a day so amazing that when it comes, you never want it to end. And of course, I’ll photograph every beautiful moment of it.

What Makes Eloping with me Different?

You get a whole lot more than just photos!

  • Planning assistance to walk you through the entire process of eloping.
  • An Idaho local, Wyoming expert, and PNW-born-and-raised local photographer to guide you to the best hidden gem locations throughout the region.
  • Custom-made elopement guide with personalized location recommendations, activity suggestions, permit instructions, and more.
  • As an ordained minister, I can sign your marriage license.
  • A mix of candid and guided photography coverage so you always know what to do with those hands and look great in your photos!

Providing You with a Holistic Approach to Planning + Photographing your Elopement

As someone who helps couples plan elopements professionally, I know that even planning an intimate wedding can become overwhelming. All-inclusive packages can be challenging to find the right fit, but DIY-ing it on your own is a lot of work.

With me, you get the ease of an all-inclusive package with the customization of doing it yourself. Except I’m here to do the heavy lifting!

Here’s how I do it…


First, I get to know the two of you and your vision for your dream elopement

Beginning with your free consultation call, to the first questionnaire I send you after you book, until your elopement day, my focus is on getting to know you as individuals so that I can serve you in a personal way. No two couples have the same story, the same vision, or the same elopement day. That’s why all the resources, guides, and recommendations I provide are tailored to you.

Personalized Planning Guides & Recommendations for every part of your day

You’ll receive a custom-made elopement guide with the most beautiful locations for you to share your vows, unique lodging recommendations, trails with the best views, the best time of day for portraits, and so much more. Plus, I’m always a phone call, text, or email away to answer any questions that come up while planning.

Get married and celebrate the best wedding experience ever!

You two, soak in every magical moment and have the best wedding day ever! Meanwhile, I’ll be photographing the entire experience with a candid approach, but I will guide you through poses as needed throughout your day, so you never have to wonder, “Do I look okay?”

Every last detail and memory of the day will be documented, and it will be an incredible day of celebration!

You Get Your Elopement Photographs to Keep Forever

Every image will be carefully edited in my signature true-to-life style and delivered to you in an online gallery for downloading, sharing, and printing. That way, you can keep the memories of this day forever.

Idaho Elopement Photographer Review

“Thanks, Tiana, for capturing our special day so perfectly!”

“Tiana was great to work with from the very beginning. She helped with a lot of planning for our Yellowstone elopement and had a ton of great suggestions and ideas. Everything she did made our wedding day perfect – scouting out locations, weather updates, flexibility, creativity, great with our family and friends, etc. We received sneak peak photos within 12 hours of our coverage ending and they were exactly what we were hoping they’d be. We’re so excited to see the rest! Thanks, Tiana, for capturing our special day so perfectly! Can’t wait to make it back out west for another session :)”

Frequently Asked Questions about Eloping in Idaho

Idaho is one of the easiest states to get married in since there’s no requirement for witnesses, and you can get married the same day you get your marriage license. I specialize in helping couples plan adventurous elopements and help take a lot of the stress of planning away by helping with location scouting, scheduling their day, providing a customized packing list, and more. Learn more about eloping with me here!

Most couples spend between $5000-$15,000 on their elopement, with the majority of their budget going towards a photographer. You can decide to spend as much or as little as you want on your elopement, depending on what kind of experience you want to have.

Idaho is filled with all kinds of beautiful scenery, ranging from jagged mountain peaks to lush old-growth forests. North Idaho is especially beautiful! I provide all of my couples with custom location recommendations based on what they want their day to feel like. You don’t have to know an exact location before you reach out because I can help you narrow down a location. Check out my guide to the best Idaho elopement locations!

To get married in the state of Idaho, all you need is your marriage license and an ordained minister to sign your papers. I’m ordained and can sign your marriage license if you want to keep your day simple. I’ll also walk you through everything you need to get your marriage license. Check out my full guide to eloping in Idaho for more information.

Elopement photographers tend to cost more than traditional wedding photographers because we include a lot of planning and additional services in our packages. A good elopement photographer is going to be able to help you with locations, navigating permits, and guide you throughout your planning process and will typically cost between $5000-$10,000.

Absolutely! This is an incredibly important day, and for some couples it wouldn’t be complete without their loved one’s by their side. I love working with couples that want to bring a handful of their closest relationships with them on their elopement day!

June through September is generally the best time to elope in Idaho, unless you’re looking for a magical winter experience, then January or February will be the best time. July and August are going to be the warmest and driest time of year, however, the shoulder seasons are great because there will be more greenery and less crowds.

Why Idaho for Your Adventure Elopement?

If you’re not from Idaho, you’re probably thinking, “Is Idaho really the best place for us to elope?”

And as an Idaho local, I can’t wait to guide you to all of the reasons why Idaho is the perfect place to elope if you want incredible views, adventure, and solitude.

Here are a few of the biggest reasons you should elope in Idaho…

1. Incredible and Diverse Scenery

Whether you want to spend your elopement surrounded by old-growth cedar trees, jagged mountain peaks, or at an alpine lake, we have all of those and more! The landscapes in Idaho are incredible and diverse. We have pretty much every kind of scenery you can imagine, except for the ocean.

2. One of the Easiest States to Get Married in

If you’re craving an easy wedding experience, it’s tough to beat Idaho. There’s no witnesses required and you can use your marriage license the same day you receive it. All you need is an ordained minister to sign your marriage license, which lucky for you, I’m ordained and can do that for you!

3. No crowds

Unlike our neighbor states of WA, OR, and CO, it’s not difficult to find a secluded location far from crowds with some of the most spectacular scenery in the country!

Can you elope and Still Include Your Family?

You absolutely can!

As someone who can’t imagine getting married without my family by my side, I know how important it is to share this day with your loved ones.

I also understand the struggle of deciding between an adventurous elopement and doing something that includes your loved ones.

You don’t have to choose between adventure and family. You can have both.

Whether it’s a multi-day elopement or celebrating with your loved ones at a reception on a later day, or bringing them along for the full adventure.

You can absolutely choose both adventure and family.

And I can guide you through the entire journey.

I’d love to Be Your Guide to the best elopement day ever!
