Elopement Photography Pricing + Packages
Pretty/Bold Photography offers two different elopement pricing options for couples who want to elope by themselves (with only an officiant and photographer) and couples who want to include a few of their closest family and friends.
More than 15 attendees is considered an intimate wedding, which has a separate pricing structure.
Many couples begin the elopement planning process unsure of how much coverage they’re going to need, and that’s no problem at all! If you’re unsure, Lisa always suggests booking the base package because you can always add on (not subtract) hours as we establish a game plan for your day!

What’s the Most Popular Elopement Package?
The half-day option tends to be the most popular because it allows you to take your time both before and after the ceremony! The extra hours can be used in a few different ways: to capture some getting ready and detail shots, a first look, a longer hike, a relaxing picnic, and driving time to different locations within the same area.
All-Inclusive Elopement Packages
While Pretty/Bold Photography provides vendor/activity suggestions, we don’t offer all-inclusive planning (booking/managing vendors, activities or accommodations or providing full day-of coordination), there are many experienced elopement planners who can be of assistance. If you’re more of the “completely hands-off” type, let me know during our intro call! I’ll be sure to include a few names of excellent individuals or companies along with your other vendor recommendations once booked!

Giving Back
As an ardent supporter of animal and environmental causes, Lisa makes it a priority to support a variety of nonprofits. This includes volunteering in person and also donating to organizations that prioritize making an immediate difference versus funding advertising campaigns. After booking, clients get to pick which organization they’d like to support from a list of researched and vetted organizations that align with Pretty/Bold Photography’s core values. Currently, that list includes: Kitten Rescue, National Forest Foundation, and Equal Justice Initiative among others.
