This pair had a wedding in Iceland followed by a honeymoon which would explore the entire island. Natural cave exploring was next on the agenda where they waded through water to get to a stunning spot. Shortly after, a picnic awaited them on a private black sand beach. Hand-in-hand venturing through moss-covered lava fields followed lunch. The photographer harnessed in and repelled off a cliff at the next stop to get an epic shot of the couple with a secret waterfall. They explored a colorful lighthouse, bird watched among golden cliffs, and ended the day at a hidden geothermal area.

Elopement in Washington

A fab elopement on Hurricane Ridge (with a sassy deer!)

Christina and Greg got married on their 17th dating anniversary. It was a beautiful September Wednesday afternoon in the Port Angeles area — a lucky draw for Washington fall weather.

Instead, they had a beautiful and intimate elopement on Hurricane Ridge on a cliff in the Olympic National Forest.

Don’t miss the actual sixpence in the bride’s shoe, the groom’s boutonniere sculpted from metal, and the coffee and Top Pot donuts that followed the ceremony…

Erin and Daniel are both engineers, so they featured an antique multimeter and their toy robot.
