New Hampshire Elopement Photographer
elopements for wild souls
Ditch the stress, the seating charts, and the performance. Your love deserves something bold — a mountaintop moment, a riverside vow, or a snowy first look with skis on.

Why Elope?
You don't need a crowd. You don't need a performance. You don't need to explain your choices to anyone.
Eloping is about stripping things back to what actually matters — just you, your person, and a place that makes your chest feel full.
If your dream day looks more like dirt on your boots than chair covers, you're in the right place.
Here for elopements with altitude.
Rich ✦ Natural ✦ Real moments
Orange maples, bluebird sky, dark green spruce, alpenglow on the summits. The mountains here are full of color, and I edit to keep it that way: rich and true to the place, never muted down or sepia-toned. Just the day the way you remember it, with the two of you in it.
Built around the mountains
I plan the whole day with you, then I photograph it.
What we plan together
- The spot. I scout places that fit your hiking pace, your guest count, and the light.
- The paperwork. NH license steps, plus permits if needed.
- The timeline. Built around sunrise or sunset, trail time, and parking.
- Plan B. A bad-weather backup we pick ahead of time.
- Vendors. Flowers, hair and makeup, and where to grab burgers after.
- The officiant. I'm ordained and can sign your license.
Adventure Elopements
Vows by a waterfall, a picnic in the backcountry, a sunrise ceremony above the treeline — your day is built entirely around what you love most, simple, bold, and rooted in the mountains.
Book by the hour, from 2 hours up. Hiking and ski-touring time is billed at a lower rate.

Getting ready at your Airbnb, a long hike to one of the White Mountains' alpine summits timed for sunset, then down by headlamp to burgers and pints or a lakeside picnic under the stars.

Eloping out west, or not eloping at all? I'm in the Rockies a few times a year, and I also shoot intimate weddings and standalone Adventure Sessions for proposals, engagements, and anniversaries.
Your photographer and partner in adventure
Hey, I'm Anton
I hike, ski, and camp right alongside you — boots in the mud, headlamp on before sunrise, however wild the day gets. I've been photographing elopements since 2019, and I know where the quiet, stunning places are: the granite ledges, the alpine lakes, the summits worth the climb.
I'll help plan the day, recommend trusted vendors, and can even sign your marriage license — I'm ordained in most states. I'm here for the wind in your hair, the dirt on your boots, and the quiet in-between moments that say more than posed photos ever could.
A 3 AM summit push? I'm already packed.

No waiting period, no residency rule, no witnesses. What the state actually asks of you, plus White Mountains permits.
Month by month: weather, crowds, fall color, blackflies, mud season and sunrise times.
Granite ledges, alpine summits and corners of the Whites that still feel wild.

Grab a free 20-minute call. Bring your date, your dream spot, and how much dirt you're cool with on your boots. I'll tell you what's possible, what it costs, and whether your date's open. No pressure. I only take about 25 elopements a year, on purpose, so good dates go.
