I’ve put together some tips for how to go about planning and packing for your hiking elopement, below, alongside photos of V + K’s overnight backpacking adventure in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Don’t miss their incredibly adorable “flower girl” AKA their Alaskan Malamute dog, Attie!
Read MoreV + K are two outdoor enthusiasts who pretty much spend every available weekend exploring all the things that mother nature has to offer. They love hiking, backpacking, fly-fishing, and climbing pretty much anything. Their sweet pup loves to join them on their expeditions and will lie down in any amount of water available to her — she’s the cutest!!

I met up with E + N while they were on a road trip from Kansas and they were so excited to spend a few days exploring Yosemite. (I took a few days to do the same!) After discussing timing and logistics of various locations, we settled on hiking to Taft Point to be there for sunset. A beautiful (and surprisingly short) hike through the forest suddenly opens up to expansive views high above the valley below. Taft Point is one of those places you could visit dozens of times and always be in awe of.
Read MoreThis adventure session was made all the more adventurous by the sheer volume of snow that dropped this winter at Zion National Park in Utah. M + S were game, though, and so was I, to hike to this stunning canyon overlook.
The best thing about winter portraits in Zion:
Far fewer crowds. We had this popular overlook all to ourselves!
Convenience of driving your car to the trail head; shuttles are only required in peak visitor months.
Magical snow! Not only is snow beautiful to look at, especially when dusted over these epic rocks, it provides perfect, soft, and even lighting for photos. A photographer’s dream!
