You Want a Wedding Day With No Rules.
Maybe you’ve considered planning a big wedding, but deep down you know a traditional wedding is not for you.
You Want an Intimate, Intentional Experience.
Maybe you’re planning an elopement with just the two of you, or you desire to plan a micro wedding with a few of your closest loved ones, but are not sure where to begin.
You Care for Artful, Emotive Photography
You need a photographer who can guide you through planning an unconventional wedding experience, while capturing artistic photos that reflect your unique connection and adventurous nature.
David | Your photographer
Hi! I’m David, your adventure elopement photographer and guide for creating a unique wedding experience.
Growing up, I spent many years believing I would never be able to love authentically, or find the kind of loving relationship that I have today.
Through the experience of falling in love, my passion in photography quickly developed into a passion for capturing the intimacy, love, and connection between two people in love.
As an elopement photographer today, my goal is to celebrate the love stories of couples from all backgrounds, and to help craft unique and intentional wedding experiences that enable couples to love and celebrate unapologetically.
We Eloped!
We’ve been in your shoes! When my husband Rob and I got married, planning a big traditional wedding didn’t feel like the best option for us. We knew we wanted to create an intentional day focused more around doing things we loved, and sharing it with a handful of people we knew loved and supported us.
Instead, our wedding day was a day full of adventure, while also checking off one of our bucket-list travel destinations: an elopement in Iceland!
“We laughed and cried and felt all the emotions, and David captured it all so beautifully.
David is an amazing photographer who truly loves what he does. He had great ideas for our elopement day which all fit perfectly into what we were looking for. I love how he was able to incorporate our fur baby into the day and pictures. He even went out of his way to scout the area days before our big day! He’s friendly, relatable and comfortable to be around. We had never had any professional pictures taken before this, and he made it easy and stress free. We laughed and cried and felt all the emotions, and David captured it all so beautifully. I’m so happy we decided to go with David for our big day! I’m so grateful for how it all turned out, from the pictures, to the scenery, to the way we felt, it was all perfect.“

Relive It
You deserve to have wedding photos you truly love. Story driven, artful photography that reflect your unique love and connection, and that will bring you back to all of the emotions and story of your day.
A big inspiration for my photography has always been movies, old paintings, and film photography. I love the feeling of romance and nostalgia that these mediums create, and hope to evoke the same feeling through your photos, for you to relive again and again.
You deserve a wedding experience that’s truly yours
—one that feels right, without regrets.
“I could not have imagined a more perfect day thanks to David
My now husband and I used Silk & Thorn for our ‘fairy tale’ Elopement on the Oregon Coast / Redwood forest and I could not have imagined a more perfect day thanks to David. From our first time messaging David was all ears wanting to hear how he could make my day perfect.. being from South Carolina I had no clue where to start to get married in California. David scouted out all the locations prior and had all of the locations picked within walking distance in my dress. He listened, said yep yep yep and made it happen!! Truly the best to work with!”
