a 12-week group coaching program for elopement photographers
Imagine making six figures as an elopement photographer and thriving in your business... without having to book 50+ elopements a year or investing in every elopement course you find.
✓ You've put " available for travel" or "destination elopement photographer" in your social bio
✓ You created elopement exclusive pricing packages
✓ You've invested into elopement photography courses or dedicated a ton of time researching on your own
BUT you aren't booking enough to be full-time.
If we’re being honest, you’re starting to feel pretty stuck and are wondering if business is always going to be this draining.
→ You believe you haven’t booked a $4k elopement because no one will pay that price, but you don’t actually have any evidence to support that.
→ You think you need 10k followers because that proves your legit, right?
→ You really want consistent inquiries in your inbox and you’ve even tried running ads but it still hasn’t worked the way you hoped it would.
→ You’ve offered travel only pricing to your favorite destinations and maybe even tried a giveaway but it hasn’t really gotten you anywhere. In fact, it’s just been a pretty big waste of your energy.
→ You book every client that wants to work with you because you can’t afford to turn anyone away and deep down you aren’t loving all the work you do
→ You set up your website, but you know it could be better and do more to connect with your dream couples
→ You sacrifice your time with loved ones trying to build this business all on your own and it makes you feel guilty every time it happens… you didn’t think it would be like this when you got into elopement photography
And at the end of the day, all you really want is to be able to build a full-time elopement photography business that gives you financial stability, creative freedom, and adventure — you see other elopement photographers living this every single day, and you’re bummed that that’s not your reality yet.
Believe me when I say I get it… because I’ve been exactly where you are right now.
The thing is, I’ve built a 6-figure elopement photography business without having to book 50 elopements.
So I can tell you without a doubt you don’t need 10k followers and a ton of bookings.
So… what is it?
Why aren’t you thriving in your business?
Before we get into that, it’s time for some good news:
Traveling to places you’ve dreamed of shooting, working with couples who are basically your new bffs, and you’re all spending the day adventuring and making epic memories.
Having more time with your partner, kids, or loved ones because you've automated your business and are free from being tied to your inbox.
Couples are leaving you detailed 5 star reviews raving about their experience (sometimes more than the actual photos) and they’re texting you messages like:
Inquiries are coming in consistently on autopilot. You only book the couples you truly connect with and people haggling you for a discount are a thing of the past.
Which can only be found inside of The Adventure + Thrive Mastermind
A 12-week group coaching program that will show you how to become an expert in elopements, make six figures, and break free from the grind mentality so you can thrive.
It has everything you need in order to attract dream couples, work in epic destinations, and craft unforgettable elopements...
Even if you’ve already invested in all the big-name elopement education courses, have been growing with the DIY method, or you feel like you've tried it all.
Adventure + Thrive is the missing link that will help you finally go full-time with elopement photography. You get access to The Thrive Method and all of the tools, strategies, accountability, AND support that you need to make your dream a reality.
I used to be in your shoes... stuck and overwhelmed, and getting nowhere trying to make elopement photography my full-time income.
I spent months and thousands of dollars doing allllll the things… posting on social media, offering my services for free or at a discount, commenting on every referral post in the Facebook wedding groups, investing in online courses from big named photographers... you name it, I tried it.
Then I hired a coach. That’s when I realized that even though I felt like I knew everything I needed to know, I really needed someone to guide the way.
I’ve taken everything that I learned on my journey and put it into Adventure + Thrive because it’s exactly what I wish I had when I was trying to make elopement photography my full time income.
It’s my mission to help as many elopement photographers as possible skip past the trial and error method by simply focusing on what works

Adventure + Thrive is a 12-week group coaching program for elopement photographers that includes a mix of recorded lessons and group coaching calls
Every week, we will meet on zoom. Every other week will be a hot seat zoom where we will do a status check and I'll answer any questions. The following week will be a lesson.
Worksheets,/spreadsheets/checklists are provided with the lessons so you can take action on the things you learn. I'll review each task and give you feedback, so you know you're on the right track every step of the way.
Ongoing support through chat Mon-Thurs 9am-3pm MST. As you work through the lessons and start making changes to your business, you can access me for questions as they pop up instead of waiting until the next zoom call.
One of the biggest components to the program is revamping your website, so that it actually converts visitors into inquiries. It is vital to your success,. When you've finalized your copy, design, and inquiry form- you will submit it to me and I'll send you a private loom video reviewing each page so you are ready to dive into marketing and driving those website visitors up.
