Bucket List Destination Wedding & Elopement Photographer

WHAT A DESTINATION WEDDING EXPERIENCE WITH ME FEELS LIKE

 

Planning a destination wedding can feel overwhelming — especially in a place you may have never visited before.

 

I provide calm, organized guidance throughout the planning process and on your wedding day so everything feels intentional, unrushed, and enjoyable. From helping you choose the best time of day for lighting, to building a smooth timeline and navigating unfamiliar locations, I make sure you can stay present and fully enjoy your experience.

 

You don’t need to have every detail figured out — just a vision and a love worth celebrating.

✨ BUCKET LIST DESTINATION WEDDING SPECIAL

 

Some destinations are simply too special not to photograph.

 

For select bucket list destination weddings and elopements, I offer complimentary photography coverage when airfare, hotel accommodations, and required travel expenses are provided.

 

This allows couples to receive a full Rocky Ridge Photography destination wedding experience while I expand my destination portfolio in locations that inspire me creatively.

 

This opportunity is limited, intentional, and based on destination, date, and coverage needs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

Do you really offer destination wedding photography for free?

 

For select bucket list destinations, photography coverage is complimentary when travel and lodging expenses are provided. Availability is limited and based on location, timing, and creative fit.

 

Is this available for full weddings or elopements?

 

Yes. Both intimate weddings and elopements are considered depending on location, timeline, and logistics.

 

Can you help us choose a destination or timeline?

 

Absolutely. Many couples begin with a general idea rather than a finalized plan — I’m happy to help guide you through the process.

 

What if our destination isn’t listed?

 

Reach out anyway. I’m always open to new destinations that align with my creative vision.

 

If your dream wedding location is on this list — or somewhere still waiting to be discovered — I’d love to hear about it.
