You’re young at heart, wildly in love, and ready to do this your way.
Let's Start planning your Idaho elopement!
Idaho Elopement Photographer
Serving Coeur d'Alene, Priest river, Sandpoint or wherever your love takes us.
—it’s about choosing a wedding experience that’s intentional, personal, and free from expectations. That means celebrating love on your terms—without the pressure of tradition or the need for a big production, or a quick visit to the courthouse.
Eloping isn't about running off in secret, It's about celebrating your new adventure.
Who says epic adventures are just for the young?
Adventure doesn’t have an age limit. Whether it’s your first “I do” or a new beginning, your story deserves to be celebrated with wonder, laughter, and the kind of quiet beauty that comes from living fully and loving deeply.
And Idaho is the perfect place to do it—where crystal-blue lakes, hidden forests, and rugged peaks create a backdrop that feels both wild and welcoming. It’s a place where you can slow down, breathe deeper, and choose an experience that’s meaningful, intimate, and entirely your own.
Did you feel the stress melt away
when you decided to elope?
Choosing to elope means saying goodbye to the stress of planning a big wedding and opening up a world of endless possibilities for your day. You're probably thinking, "This sounds amazing, but how does it all come together?"
That’s where I come in!
I’m here to help you dream, plan, and bring your Idaho elopement vision to life—down to the smallest details. Whether you imagine a quiet lakeside picnic on Lake Pend Oreille, a sunrise kayak in the Sawtooths, a scenic floatplane ride over rugged backcountry, or exchanging vows on a cliff overlooking the Salmon River, I’m here to make it all happen.
So take a deep breath, relax, and celebrate your choice to embrace a different kind of adventure—one that’s all about what YOU want.
Freedom to be you
Why choose me as your photographer?
By the time you reach this point in life, you know what matters — love that’s real, connection that lasts, and experiences that feel true to who you are.
I photograph elopements for couples who’ve experienced life’s seasons and know the beauty of starting anew. I understand how special it is to find love again—and how freeing it feels to celebrate it in a way that fits your life now: slower, more meaningful, intentional, and sprinkled with a little laughter along the way.
With me, there’s no pressure to perform or fit into someone else’s idea of what a wedding should be. Just the two of you, in a beautiful place, doing what feels right — whether that’s exchanging vows on the shore of Priest Lake, sharing a quiet toast in the forest, or dancing in your hiking boots at sunset.
I’m there to bring a steady, grounded presence — the kind that helps you feel at ease so you can fully enjoy every moment. I’ll gently guide when needed, step back when it’s right, and make sure the photos reflect your day exactly as it felt: real, relaxed, and full of meaning. Let's make this next chapter you're best one yet.

Why we chose Anita
"When we met Anita it was like everything just clicked."
"She just got us.
As we planned our elopement at Priest Lake, we weren’t sure we’d find a photographer who really understood where we are in life. But from the very beginning, everything just felt easy—like we were in good hands.
There was an instant connection. She knew how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and we appreciated that she brings both experience and heart to her work. It was refreshing to work with someone who shares a similar outlook—someone who’s lived a little and truly understands how meaningful this moment was for us.
She captured the emotion, the laughter, and all those quiet, in-between moments that made the day so special. Nothing ever felt rushed or staged—it was just real.
Anita didn’t just take beautiful photos (though she absolutely did); she helped create an experience that felt calm, natural, and totally us."
-Mike and Reanna
Eloping isn’t about following a script—it’s about creating a day that feels right for you. Whether you’re dreaming of a sunrise ceremony on a mountaintop, a quiet lakeside moment, or an all-day adventure from forest trails to starlit skies, I’m here to bring your vision to life.
I offer several pricing options, each designed to capture your story in a way that fits your day. But every elopement is unique, and I can tailor any package to match what truly matters to you. Maybe you want a laid-back morning together before saying your vows, an intimate first look, or time to soak in the moment without feeling rushed. Or maybe you’re looking to avoid stress, crowds, or anything that feels staged or forced. I get it.
By this stage in life, you know what matters most. This isn’t about following trends—it’s about celebrating your love in a way that feels effortless, meaningful, and completely yours. I take the time to understand your vision, priorities, and concerns—what excites you and what you’d rather skip—so your experience is seamless, deeply personal, and full of moments that feel so you.

"She really listened to what we were hoping to accomplish, organizing everything seamlessly around what we wanted — and freeing us from stress.
She even went as far as to help put the bouquet together and brought thoughtful accessories that enhanced our day.
She worked with us to make sure the photos we dreamed of were possible — even scouting out locations ahead of time so all we had to do was show up.
The lighting that day was tricky (from overcast sunrise, to bright sunshine, to shifting clouds, and finally evening light), but every picture turned out beautifully. Her enthusiasm was obvious and it shows in the final results.
We aren’t frequent subjects of photoshoots, but she made it easy. Her direction felt natural, and our poses suited each backdrop perfectly.
Her flexibility and willingness to adapt to our needs meant everything — and the quiet moments in between (hiking, chatting) made it clear she could be a friend to anyone within a day.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to plan and document our elopement.”
— Michael & Kyla

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide other photography services such as seniors or maternity sessions?
Elopements can just be the couple or shared with a few close friends and family, consisting of 5-10 guests depending on the restrictions of the planned location. Elopements take place somewhere in nature, including national parks that will usually require permits and making arrangements well in advance.
Intimate weddings can range from 10-25 guests depending on the restrictions of the location. Couples may choose to capture their ceremony more like an elopement with a celebration of more guests later in the day. Intimate weddings may take place somewhere out in nature or at a small wedding venue.

Frequently Asked Questions
DO YOU TRAVEL?
It all depends on what your vision of your day looks like. If you are having a quick ceremony and only want a few images of sharing your vows and portraits, a four hour session is plenty.
However, if you want to have a relaxed day and a bit of adventure including getting ready, first look, family portraits, and dancing under the stars as you end your day, you will want to look for a 8-10 hour timeline to ensure you get photos of your entire day.
Do you have an example Timeline?
Yes! I travel all over the country to capture love stories. Let me know what location you're looking at, or if you're still unsure, I can help you decide!
