Vermont Wedding Photography as Natural as the Landscape
As a Vermont wedding and elopement photographer, I’ve had the privilege of documenting love in some of the state’s most unforgettable places, from intimate mountaintop moments to backyard celebrations that last late into the night.
I’ve often found that in Vermont, couples seem to exhale and settle into themselves here. This landscape creates a feeling that’s genuine and unforced, and I love to capture the way it allows people to simply be present with each other.
Let's Talk!
Why I Keep Coming Back to Vermont
The thing about wedding photography in Vermont is that the place itself does so much of the work for you. I grew up visiting family here, and it’s where I’ve always felt at home, in the fiery colors of autumn, the quiet of winter snow, and the fields that come alive with wildflowers each summer. It’s become one of my favorite places in general, and to photograph couples, be it for a wedding, elopement, or a special season of life.
But Vermont weddings and elopements aren’t just about the scenery, even if it’s unforgettable. It’s the way this landscape makes you feel: grounded, at ease, free to simply be yourselves. Whether it’s the intimacy of an elopement or a celebration with everyone you love, Vermont creates a backdrop where presence matters more than perfection, and where the moments that unfold are the ones you’ll want to hold on to.

My Philosophy as a Vermont Wedding Photographer
I'm based in New York, but honestly, any excuse to head up to Vermont and I'm packing my camera gear. But before I start racing to meet you on the mountains, like any relationship, we have to vibe, right? I want us both to be comfortable and excited to work together because that's what you deserve from a Vermont wedding photographer, whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a celebration with all your people.
Before I was photographing full time, I worked as an event planner (trust me, that comes in handy whether you want to elope in Vermont or plan a full wedding - I'm ready to hold the flowers, wrangle the dog, coordinate with vendors, whatever you need). But what really drew me to this work is the human connection, and Vermont just has this way of bringing out the most genuine, beautiful moments between people.
No adventure is too small or too big - I'll wake up at 4 am for sunrise photos, hike to that perfect overlook, coordinate with your wedding party for group shots, or trek through snow if that's what your heart wants. Acts of service are my love language, and as Vermont photographers go, I promise I'll do whatever it takes to create something beautiful that lasts long after our time together.

Where are the best places to elope in Vermont or have your wedding?
Vermont has so many incredible spots for both intimate elopements and larger celebrations.
I love Shelburne Farms for that pastoral elegance vibe (perfect for ceremonies and receptions), Mount Mansfield when couples want dramatic mountain views, and hidden meadows that feel like your own private world. Fall is obviously stunning everywhere, but I also adore winter ceremonies at places like Trapp Family Lodge and spring celebrations in the Woodstock valleys.
