The truth is, eloping is an amazing way to get married in its own right. It's a loophole, a life hack. A way to have exactly the wedding day you've always imagined—without any of the fuss you don't care for. This is what makes elopements sooo special. It's also what makes them my favourite type of wedding to document! If you're like me — if you're low-key and low-fuss — then elopement weddings are pretty much the best thing ever invented. Eloping isn't a sacrifice, it's your golden ticket to having the happy, liberating, drama-free, and decidedly un-stressful day that you've always wanted! It's a first-choice, big-deal decision, and it deserves first-choice, big-deal documentation! Most photographers only offer 2-hour or half-day elopement photography packages. But to me, that doesn't do your day justice. I offer full-day elopement photography packages because, well, it's your freaking wedding day! Why not hike a mountain, head to the beach, or hit up city hall and have all-day photography that makes you feel special and have incredible photos to show for it?!If you're nodding your head right now like, “hell yeah!” then send me a message and we'll get chatting.

Rocky Mountain Juniper Wedding Package + 1 Engagement Session
Melanie Chapman Photography
A wedding day is a celebration more than anything, so let's capture the celebration and give yourself a beautiful memory to look back on. I want you to be able to put yourself back into the moment where you said 'I do' or 'heck yes' and relive the emotions. If you're looking for the most comprehensive, don't-miss-a-moment coverage of your wedding day, the Rocky Mountain Juniper Wedding Package is the one for you. This package is perfect for couples who want to look back and cherish every single moment of their special day. I want you to remember the ear-to-ear smile as you saw your spouse for the first time, or the moment you burst into laughter at your best friend's stand-up improv. I want you to have the photo proof that yes, your breakdancing moves really did tear up the dance floor, and I want you to have the beautiful formal photos with your family that you deserve. More than anything, I want you to walk away from this meaningful day knowing that you were able to do and experience everything you possibly wanted. Bonus: When you book the Rocky Mountain Juniper package, you and your partner will also get a free engagement photography session in the lead-up to the wedding (digitals included).
