The oregon coast + redwoods Content Day is $1,000
One booking from this content covers your investment several times over, and everything after that is profit.
What's included
The outdoors is for everyone, and your portfolio should show it. We're intentional about casting real, diverse couples, including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ couples, so your future clients can see themselves reflected in your work.
Diverse, real couples
Not included: lodging, transportation, park entry fees, and other personal expenses.
You'll get immediate access to a private group with your fellow attendees, so you can coordinate carpools, travel, and lodging, and start making friends before you arrive. Most people come solo and don't stay strangers for long. In an industry where we don't have coworkers, the connections and referrals you walk away with end up being priceless.
A private attendee group and lasting community
This content day crosses two states and two park systems, and I'll walk you through the special use permitting process start to finish, which is the exact skill you'll need every time you photograph a couple on protected land. We'll also cover the Leave No Trace principles that protect these spaces and why understanding our impact matters. Old growth root systems and coastal bluffs are genuinely fragile, and knowing how to work in them without damaging them is part of our job as photographers. Learning to do it right makes you more bookable and a better steward of the land we all love.
Permitting + Leave No Trace education
Two couples, two full day elopements. Each one is planned like a real elopement: slow mornings, first looks, ceremony moments, golden hour portraits, and the in-between details that make a gallery feel real. You're not walking away with a handful of pretty photos. You're walking away with full, realistic galleries that let couples truly picture themselves in the story.
Two full adventure elopement galleries
We keep groups small and split into even smaller rotations between the two couples, so everyone gets equal shooting time and nobody's fighting for the frame. The photographers you'll be standing shoulder to shoulder with? You'll leave calling them friends
An intimate, supportive shooting group
Every content day is a single day, sunrise to sunset, built like two real elopements from start to finish.
Most content days give you one look. This one gives you two completely different ones, in three distinct setups. Ferns, mist, and cathedral light under thousand-year-old trees. Sea stacks and salt spray on a rugged stretch of coast. Cliffside golden hour with the Pacific going gold behind them. It's one of the most efficient portfolio days I've ever built, because you leave with a gallery that proves range instead of a gallery that proves you were in one pretty spot.
Two worlds, one gallery

A single day, sunrise to sunset, structured like two real, full-day elopements. You'll photograph two couples across three different locations, from old growth redwood groves to the sea stacks and cliffs of the southern Oregon coast. Everything is planned start to finish so you leave with complete, realistic galleries you can use to book full-day elopements.
I've had those experiences too, which is exactly why I build these with intention. Every shoot is planned to give you galleries you can actually use to pitch full-day, high-ticket elopements and start booking the kind of work you want. And yes, you'll walk away with new friends too.
Small, on purpose. We include two couples at each shoot location and split the group in two, rotating equally between couples. That way everyone gets equal shooting time and there's no fighting for the frame. It makes the day better creatively, and it makes it way easier to actually connect with the people you're shooting alongside.
The waitlist is where you want to be. Waitlisters get access to tickets a full 24 hours before anyone else, plus first dibs on the launch bonus. With spots this limited, there's a real chance a content day sells out to the waitlist before the public ever sees it. Joining costs you nothing and holds your place at the front of the line.
The application is quick, and it's how I get to know you and your goals so the day actually delivers what you need and so the group stays small and intentional.
No, permitting for the content day is taken care of. But I'll walk you through the special use permitting process so you understand exactly how it works, because you'll need to do it yourself when you photograph your own couples on protected land down the road. You'll still need to cover your own park entry/recreation pass.
Leave No Trace is foundational to everything I do. Respecting and protecting the land we work on isn't optional, it's part of our job as photographers. I plan every content day with our impact in mind, and I'll teach you the principles so you can carry them into your own work and pass them on to your couples.
Not much, which is why this day works. The redwood groves are flat loop trails under a mile. Our coastal locations are a mix of roadside viewpoints and short trails, with the longest around three quarters of a mile each way, some of it steep and often slick. Wear waterproof hiking shoes with good tread and you'll be fine.
Late October on the southern Oregon coast means 50s, wind, fog, and a real chance of rain, and honestly that's the good stuff. Mist in old growth and moody surf are exactly what this landscape does best. Bring layers, a rain shell, rain covers for your gear, and microfiber cloths. (Weather-dependent adjustments are always part of the plan.)
Crescent City (CEC) is the closest airport but service is limited, so check routes early. Medford (MFR) is the practical option for most people, roughly a three hour drive. Portland (PDX) or a Bay Area airport work if you're building a longer trip, though both involve lengthy drives. Lodging runs from Brookings and Harbor on the Oregon side to Smith River, Hiouchi, and Crescent City on the California side, all within easy reach of our locations. A vehicle is required, and the attendee group makes it easy to split a rental or coordinate lodging.
The oregon coast is calling.
One day. two galleries. One booking to make it all worth it.
Picture it: a veil lifting in an ancient forest grove, vows on a cliff edge with sea stacks smoking in the spray below, a last frame of two silhouettes against the Pacific turning golden. Two worlds, one day, two stories. A place you can shoot again and again for your own couples, starting with the portfolio you build here. That gallery is one day away.
