AS SEEN IN
We're Amanda & Joe. If you read through our reviews you'll see that we're just a couple who’s genuinely fun to spend the day with, that also happens to be really f*cking good at this. We find the spots that nobody else knows about, I'll call out that weird thing you’re doing with your hands, Joe & I will tease each other until you're laughing for real. By the end of your day it'll feel like you've known us for years. Relaxed people make for real moments, and real moments make for the kind of photos you can't stop looking at.
We've spent a decade in some of the most beautiful places on earth with couples who looked at the traditional wedding blueprint and thought: that's not us. Couples who wanted something so completely theirs they'd never seen it done before. That's who we're here for.
On your day we're part guide, part creative directors, part people you just met but somehow already trust. We'll loosely lead you through the day, read the room, know when to slow down and when to move, and make sure you actually stop and take it all in. No rushing. No shot lists. No stiff poses.
Just you two, somewhere extraordinary, doing something that finally feels right.
We shoot with an editorial eye and a documentary instinct. Meaning we're always composing, always watching, always ready, but we're never manufacturing moments that aren't there. The in-between, the tenderness, the weird. That's what we're after.
“We absolutely LOVED our experience with Joe and Amanda. They are part of why my husband and I felt like our elopement day went as well as it did. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made.”
- Desiree + Dylan
"Holy shit, this is actually our wedding day"
One of our couples said this mid-hike in Joshua Tree, half-laughing, half-crying, and we thought:
Yeah. That's exactly the vibe.
Not polished. Not performed. Just the two of you doing something that feels more you than a big wedding ever could
That's what we're here for.
don’t take our word for it…
“They were the first thing we booked before we even nailed down where we were eloping. Wickedly talented, ridiculously easy to be around, and capable of turning the best day of your life into something you can relive forever. Stop looking. You found them”
“We are not kidding when we say this, we watch our elopement video at least once a week.
If you are on the fence about eloping, I would say do it, but do it with Amanda and Joe, it is such a special way to honor you and your partner while having 2 ‘besties’ there to capture it all!”
“In our first meeting with them, there was just a natural ease in conversation that immediately made us feel comfortable. They were experienced and knowledgeable while also humble and kind. We stopped shopping around after the call”
By the time you're standing in the spot where you're going to say I do, we've already scouted it for light, timed it around the weather, and figured out exactly how to move through your day so nothing feels rushed and nothing gets missed. What you end up with isn't just a gallery. It's a full sensory record of a day that was built specifically for you. The light hitting exactly right because we planned for it. The in-between moments caught because we knew to watch for them. The feeling of it, not just the look of it.
That's what creative direction actually means. And it's why our couples don't just love their photos. They can't stop looking at them.
All without the stress of figuring it out alone.
With us, you're getting artists who bring vision, intuition, and a decade of experience turning wild ideas into unforgettable stories

The summit

you didn’t fly across the country to be done by noon
The Summit is a full day built around going further. It starts before the crowds and ends after the light is gone. You watch the sunrise from somewhere most people never find. You hike somewhere that earns the view. You have lunch complete with a ridiculous backdrop and bad cell service. You get coffee at a place locals love. You go back into the park as the sky turns gold and you're not thinking about photos anymore, you're just there.
We plan the whole arc. We know when to step back and when to say wait, turn around, look at that.
You'll spend a full day living inside one of the most beautiful places on earth, on your wedding day, with someone who knew exactly where to take you.

The expedition
starting at $10000
You don't just want a regular wedding. You want the full experience.
The night before one elopement, we rented ATVs and drove across the island until we arrived at a secret beach we found while scouting that nobody else was on. We watched the sunset there, just the four of us. The next morning we were up before dawn for an immersive sunrise to sunset elopement day with multiple locations, time built in for exploration, snacks and a nap before heading back out to watch the most memorable sunset of your lives.
That's the Expedition. We become your guides, your creative partners, in a place you've always wanted to go. We find what isn't on any list. We design the whole experience, not just the day. You combine your wedding with the trip of your lifetime and come home with photos and a film that feels like something you can relive with all 5 of your senses.
This is for the couple who says: if we're doing this, we're really doing this.
Domestic from $12,000. International from $14,000. Custom quotes available based on destination and scope.
