snowy, styled winter elopement | dubuque

this entire styled elopement was based around this gorgeous dress. i saw it and instantly needed to purchase it. knew going into this, i wanted to shoot a non-traditional elopement featuring a nontraditional color palette, a nontraditional dress, a nontraditional wedding season — you sense the pattern.

for the models, i got a past bride and groom of mine, paisley and aaron to bare the cold. over the years, these two have been repeat clients. i have photographed their engagement, wedding, newborn, and family photos. they re-read their vows among snow covered trees for a styled elopement and it was beautiful. my vision truly came to life.
