Extravagant traditional weddings are just not you. You don’t want the stress, all the pressure and expectations that come with it. Instead, you want a wedding day experience that is focused on just the two of you, your connection and adventure. You want a day that is intentional, authentic and fun!
So, you just got engaged to your person and you are going to elope- I am so excited for you!
But here’s the thing:
Planning an elopement can be overwhelming and you might not know where to start — no worries! That's where I come in.
Hey,I’m Hawa!

My focus is to allow you to be your authentic self while creating a unique adventure so that you have a ton of fun. I will help you plan your entire day from start to finish and capture all of your special moments and everything in-between so your photos reflect who you two truly are and tell the unique story of your day.
Whether you want to elope in the mountains, the desert or near a beautiful alpine lake...
I will help you plan a customized experience that is completely for YOU — and yes! You'll get the most amazing photos as well!!
"Hawa really went above and beyond for our photos! She does her research beforehand, even the location, to figure out the best angles and areas. She asked us questions to get a sense of what we liked and wanted and curated a set of poses based upon our answers. This was very nice especially if you're not sure how you want your photos to be. The photos also arrived quickly and were amazing! I really love my photos and it felt surreal knowing that these are the photos I will be looking at years down the line.She's a great photographer who takes their job serious. I would recommend her to anyone!"

"I had an amazing couples photo shoot session with Hawaa! She is so sweet and down to earth when you meet her. Her skills as a photographer are phenomenal as she captures the perfect moments with you and your partner. Hawaa guided us through poses and everything felt so natural as she took the photos. The pictures came out beautifully digitally & on print. I’m very happy with how the whole experience turned out I would highly recommend Hawaa & her talent for photography!"

"I will start off by saying that Hawa is an amazing photographer and person. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and they speak for themselves. She took portrait/couple photos for me and left me speechless. Hawa is so fun, attentive and made my boyfriend and I feel so comfortable and we had an amazing time. Hawa sent us our sneak peak pictures in no time and we were blown away. I would always recommend her even before she took my photos and I promise that will never change. Beyond thankful for these memories I get to hold onto forever. Thank you Hawa for all that you do"

Customized Timeline
Together, we will plan a full day timeline of all the activities you want to do and the locations you want to explore — planned to a tee, so you don't have to worry about it, later. You don't have to focus on the logistics, you get to spend all of your time to focus on each other, be in the moment and actually remember the special moments of your wedding day. I'll make sure that we are on time and where we need to be every step of the way.
Location Search
You tell me what type of backdrop and scenery you want and I will find you locations that match it. Then, based on the location you choose, I will figure out which times to get the best lighting so you can get STUNNING photos, look incredible and walk away with some unique sets of photos that will tell your story for years.
Vendor Suggestions
Forget hours of vendor Googling that takes away from your "me time" and use my trusted list of vendors. That way you won't have to spend hours going down the Google rabbit hole and instead you can spend your time checking out your new local restaurant or binging Netflix.
Permit Assistance
I'll make sure that if your locations require permits, they're secured early so that we don't have to worry about it at any point along the way.
And Here's a Bonus...
Why Do I Offer This?
I will deliver sneak peeks within 24-48 hours!
You won’t find many photographers that send you sneak peeks of some of your favorite moments of your wedding day within 48 hours. After a shoot, I will go through the gallery and choose some of the best photos, do a quick edit then send them to you.
I love delivering sneak peeks because I want you to have something to hold on to until your full gallery is delivered. Plus, I am always so excited to see the photos so I just get to share that excitement with you.
