After realizing a bigger wedding would be complicated for family, Lorilee + Ivan decided to elope in Yosemite National Park with his brother as their officiant and their sister-in-law as a witness. They had a snowy first look and a romantic ceremony in El Cap meadow followed by wedding portraits all over Yosemite Valley.

Ben and Rachelle have fallen completely in love with the desert since moving to Phoenix, Arizona a few years ago so when planning where to do their engagement photos we all loved the idea of meeting up in Joshua Tree National Park for an adventurous session!

Hannah and Jason got engaged on a camping trip in Yosemite National Park, so it was especially meaningful to get some engagement photos out there too!

Megan and Nate are fellow adventure wedding photographers, so when we met up in El Chalten, Argentina, we traded photo sessions in hopes of inspiring our future couples to consider a Patagonia Elopement!
