Elopement & Micro Wedding Pricing

Wedding coverage for couples who desire an intimate elopement or micro wedding where full day coverage isn’t needed.

What To Expect.

Our style is where classic meets modern, for couples who are joyful & adventurous with a love for the coastal life. We approach your day from an editorial, or magazine-like, standpoint. We’re relaxed and easy going, but we also recognize that a wedding day is a carefully choreographed dance of both organic & curated moments.

We believe every love story, no matter how big or small, is worth capturing in the moment.

Connecting with the wedding day and the people involved on a personal level is hugely important in creating lasting images that will be part of your family legacy. Our approach is a mixture of hanging back to capture the candid moments, while also knowing when to step in and help direct those moments that need it.

A little about

Elopements

Did you start planning a traditional wedding and quickly get overwhelmed? It’s OK, you aren’t alone! Intimate Elopements are the
perfect option for couples who just want to get away from it all, opting for a sweet and simple day focused on just the two of you, without the addition of wedding guests.

Our elopement coverage is designed for couples getting married without any of the additional elements to a traditional wedding. These events are up to two hours of coverage, taking place in one location, and are just enough time to capture the ceremony and portraits.

A Little About

Micro Weddings

Micro Weddings have been quickly gaining traction as the preferred option for couples who still want to celebrate with their nearest and dearest, without sacrificing some of the common elements of a more traditional wedding. We absolutely LOVE photographing these events. We find couples have the time to be intentional with their day and spending time with their loved ones.

Micro Weddings consist of 30 guests or less, and are structured like a traditional wedding, just on a smaller scale. Most times, depending on the event, we’re still capturing getting ready photos, ceremony, family and couples portraits, and some dinner/reception moments. Every wedding day is different, and we’re always happy to chat with you about how best to allocate your coverage time.

We can’t wait to tell Your Love Story.

a little about me

Hey there, I’m Courtney!

I am a true believer in love stories. In 2012 I married my high-school sweetheart, Rob, after 12 years. Together we’ve shared a journey that has been rich with memories, and cultivated the most amazing life full of adventures together.

We met and married at Pirates Cove Marina, right here on the Outer Banks and now have two little coastal cuties of our own. You could say the water is the essence of our foundation. Our lives revolve around boating and billfish, and many of my couples are also most at home on the water. We split our time between our home in Manteo & the Herradura region of Costa Rica.

Boat days, golden light, and the love of family make my heart go pitter patter.

Frequently Asked Questions…

We require a signed contract and non-refundable $1,000 to secure your date. Any remaining balance is due 15 days prior to the event date. For larger packages, we’re happy to split that remaining balance into two installments.

Additional time may be added on to our Micro Wedding Package only. Additional hours are billed at $500/hr.

OBX weather can be unpredictable. We highly encourage you to have a backup plan in place. For most couples it’s typically the house they’ve rented. Please note, we cannot just “show up” to a public location (such as gazebo) to host your ceremony, as these locations are often owned by the town/county and require a permit regardless of wedding size.

We always have a preview up on our social media with 1-2 days of the wedding. The final gallery is ready within 8-12 weeks, and is delivered electronically via digital download from your private online gallery.

Typically elopements are geared towards just the couple and their witnesses. We do understand that often couples may be traveling with their children or parents, and so we do make exceptions for couples how have less than 10 guests.

Sure thing! Just because you’re having an intimate wedding doesn’t mean you have to forego some traditional elements. We have great network of vendors here to help with all the details. For those couples hosting a micro wedding, I do highly suggest having a day-of coordinator.
