Principal Photographer & Planner

I plan luxury destination elopements that are neither preceded nor replicated.  

Search these remarkable landscapes, and you won’t see a parade of identical wedding photos.

I believe the world is too extraordinary for a borrowed plan.

My passion for unique global travel, belief that anything is possible, and mantra that meaningful experiences can’t be rushed are the foundation of how I support you.

Share how you want your wedding to feel, and I’ll create options as original as your love story—capturing images of every unforgettable moment.

Wanderlust is calling...

WHERE will your WEDDING take YOU?

 The day was amazing and it was everything we had dreamed it to be! We started the planning process knowing only how we wanted the day to make us feel, and with Kate's help, we achieved that.
