North Georgia Elopement Photographer

Co-creating an experience that sits well with your heart

Mindful elopements rooted in nature

Set Your Intentions

Your wedding day should reflect what you and your beloved want.

NOT what others want. 

Choosing to elope means choosing each other over anyone else’s expectations. That takes commitment and courage — two things you’ve got in spades.

You deserve an experience that creates the space to feel fully present, seen and connected — a space that feels like home

I would LOVE to help you pull off the adventure of a lifetime!

Tell Me About Your Perfect Day

“We felt completely taken care of in Kayla’s hands. 

“We could really feel the dedication she has to making elopements personal and as stress-free as possible. Kayla crafted an itinerary for us that hit all the important notes we wanted. She had helped us choose the perfect location: a tucked away mountaintop clearing at sunrise, overlooking a cloud inversion.”

Lizbeth + Conner

Your North Georgia elopement is 

Give yourself permission to close your eyes for a sec (yes, really!) and imagine your perfect wedding day—

… You two hiking into the North Georgia mountains, with views that stretch for miles

… A hidden waterfall deep in the woods that gets your hem a little wet (and your heart fully happy)

… A private chef and board games back at your cute, cozy cabin

… Sharing your vows in a way that holds real meaning

Whatever you’re imagining, this is your sign to go after a day that’s wholly you in every way. 

This is what eloping can mean—

To live this day as your truest self.

And get photos that reflect the raw, emotional, adventurous spirit of your day.

Hey, I’m Kayla!

How much do I love elopements?

So much that I eloped in nature too!Elopement PackagesContact Kayla

“Kayla is such a gem of a human and an incredible photographer.

“Wedding planning was not my jam, and when we decided to elope with just our immediate family present, I was so glad I came across Kayla. She takes extra care to get to know who you are so that your wedding day is a true reflection of you as a couple. The only thing better than our beautiful photos was the experience itself.”

Alison + Jake

Dig in to your experience

“It is impossible to sum up the magic that Kayla brings to her work and her clients. 

“She was such an integral part of our elopement experience as she helped us every step of the way through the planning process. She provided so much encouragement and support for our elopement day dreams! We love looking back on our pictures and remembering every detail that Kayla made possible and all the laughter we shared with her that day!”

With love for

each other & this earth

Eloping in nature is an incredible gift — for you and for the planet.

Big weddings produce a mind-boggling amount of garbage and carbon emissions. Yet when you elope, you’re doing more than honoring yourself. You’re saying yes to an earth-friendly, low-waste wedding that prioritizes experience over stuff.

As a Leave No Trace Aware photographer, I am committed to thoughtfully planning a day that preserves this planet not just for you, but for all those who’ll come after. 

And if you’re my kind of people, you’ll understand why that’s so important. I love my little corner of North Georgia, and I can’t wait to share it (ethically) with you!

A portion of every booking is donated to one of the following non-profits:

I understand! I eloped too and remember that feeling of overwhelm when it came to the logistics. Grab some inspiration with my FREE North Georgia Elopement Guide, then let’s chat!
