Adventure Couples Sessions in Northern California
engagement, honeymoon, anniversary, proposal, or just-because
If I were to take a wild guess...
Let's create the photos you'll still be excited to look at years from now.
I'd say you're not looking for stiff, posed portraits that feel like regurgitated Pinterest boards. You want photos that capture the way you actually are together — the inside jokes, the casual touches, the moments that make you think "yup, that's us."
Photography that feels like memory —
this is storytelling without staging.
your love, exactly as it is
connection over perfection, always
You're probably a little nervous about being in front of the camera.
You're wondering if you'll feel awkward, if you'll know what to do with your hands, if the photos will actually feel like you.
I'll let you in on a secret: most people feel like this. Even the ones who look totally natural in their photos (including almost all of my couples).
Suffice it to say, you're in good company.
Even better, I know a thing or two about bringing out your best selves so that 'being photogenic' happens without you even realizing.
What I've learned is that the photos you'll treasure most aren't the perfectly posed ones. They're the ones where you were genuinely present with each other.
That's why I don't make you hold awkward positions or smile on command. Instead, I guide you through movement and connection — the kind that brings out your authentic dynamic, not a performance of it. You focus on each other, and I'll focus on preserving how it feels.
Hey, I'm Meg.
I specialize in capturing couples in nature — whether that's for intimate elopements or sessions like this.
Sound about like what you're looking for?
Photos that feel like the real you,
not like you're trying too hard
Photos that feel like the real you, not like you're trying too hard
"We loved working with Meg for our engagement session! She made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera, and we love how our photos turned out."
- Emily & Ava
"Meg really captured the essence of our relationship. Highly recommend!"
Here's what you can expect:
We'll chat about what you're envisioning and where you feel most like yourselves. I'll scout locations, send you planning resources ahead of time, and take care of the logistics so you can just show up and have fun.
Expect lots of movement, genuine laughter, and moments where you completely forget about the camera. I'll guide you through prompts and interactions that feel natural to your relationship.
You'll receive a gallery of images that genuinely represent your relationship. Not the "Instagram highlight reel" version — the real version. The one where you look at the photos and think, "I remember exactly how that moment felt."

The best part about eloping is that you can celebrate having the freedom to do whatever you and your partner want on your wedding day. Want to say your vows at the top of a 50 foot balcony in the redwoods? I know a place. Dreaming of dipping your toes (or more!) in the ocean in your wedding outfits? You got it. Thinking about bringing along your ten closest people, or no one at all? Either way and anything in between is perfect.
This is your wedding day, and you get to call all of the shots.
This is your opportunity to prioritize the wedding experience of your wildest dreams.
There is no one right way to elope, and that's the way it should be.

What you'll receive:
2 week gallery turnaround
...so you can relive your favorite moments way before the memory fades. (and if this feels fast, you'd be right: my session delivery time is 2x faster than the industry average!)
Your full gallery of authentic moments
Collaborative & compassionate direction that brings out your natural connection
My biggest priority is that your photos turn out exactly how you imagined them — actually, even better. This doesn't happen by accident. During our planning process, I'll get to know your individual personalities and how you two relate to each other, which will allow us to create images that are genuinely uniquely yours.
60 minimum images, but never any limit if there are more I know you'll want. Printing rights always included.
These sessions are great as standalone celebrations, and they're also an option for couples who want to work together before their elopement. Either way, you're getting the same collaborative, authentic experience — just on a smaller scale.
"The pictures turned out beautiful, and the poses are very natural which is what we wanted. We would definitely work with Meg again in the future!"
- Audrey & Mark
"Meg made taking our engagement photos natural and stress-free – it was so much more fun than we expected."
If this resonates, let's talk.
Whether you're celebrating an engagement, anniversary, or just wanting to document this season of your relationship, I'd love to create something beautiful with you.
And if you're actually here because you're planning an elopement? That's my specialty — and I do way more than just show up with a camera.
