BIG SUR ELOPEMENT PACKAGES & PRICING

That's the wedding day you deserve - a day that's genuine, that's authentic, that's true to who you are and celebrates the incredible love you share. Let's be honest - wedding and elopement planning can often spiral into a stressful process (even if you're planning for an intimate wedding!) and it's easy to lose sight of what your wedding day is all about. I'm here to root for you both behind the scenes and in front of the scenes, to help you craft a day that focuses on what's most important to you. Your day is about the memories, not about being a production. At the heart of it all, those big and small moments, for the smallest 1/250th of a second, capture the magic of your love story. That's why I love to share real life, real love stories - not styled ones of models created for Instagram-worthy content. I'd rather capture a million messy, beautiful, real life moments than one perfectly posed one because face it, your smile will definitely get stiff trying to stay still for that long.

So real talk: I’m not here to sell you on me. I’m here to walk you through the process, to see if you and I are a good fit. I’m here to see if I can meet your needs, and if that’s not me, then I’m happy to send you on your merry way. So don't hesitate to reach out because if you don't, you’ll never know!

You might be wondering...

What makes you different?

I'M A PLANNER. If you're a fan of personality tests, I'm an Enneagram 5, also known as the investigator, the troubleshooter, the problem solver. If there's something I don't know, I won't stop until I find the answer. I'm here to make sure your elopement day is easy and stress-free.

TRUST AND RELIABILITY ARE SUPER IMPORTANT TO ME. I don’t take the trust you put in me lightly. Your wedding day is so precious, and I do everything in my power to be there 110% throughout the process and on the day of. To this day, I’ve personally photographed every wedding and elopement I’ve committed to. And I’m not one to leaving you hanging, even during busy season. You’ll almost always get a response within 24 hours - if not within a few hours unless I’m out shooting a wedding or out of town.

I DON'T TRAVEL FOR ELOPEMENTS. That's right. The California coast is my home - it's my backyard, my home office, the place where I retreat to in my free time, my daily walk with our pup Bixby. You'll find countless photographers who'll travel anywhere, but that's not me. I'll turn down an Iceland elopement over a Big Sur elopement any day. I absolutely love this magical part of the California coast, and get excited everytime I get to show that magic to couples. It also means I keep couples posted when conditions change and know this area inside and out. No matter what happens (and things do happen when you're planning around the unpredictability of nature!), I can roll with the punches and make sure you still have an incredible day.

I LOVE THE DIVERSITY OF PEOPLE I GET TO MEET AND STORIES I GET TO BE APART OF. Let's be real, the wedding industry isn't always the most diverse, and can sometimes make you feel like you're not good enough. You'll see the same things on Instagram over and over again, model-like couples who look as free-spirited and carefree as can be. But guess what? That's not always real. Your unique story, your background, your history, your quirks, that's what I care about. And the incredible story you've created with your partner? That's the one I want to tell.

Wow, Lynn is a genius.

If you are thinking about working with her, DO IT!! Every aspect of working with her was amazing. I will start off by saying, our elopement day and photos were **perfect** thanks her mastery. She knows the Big Sur coastline so well, and was able to tailor the day exactly to our needs. Her expertise of the area really shows in her amazing photography. As a small bonus, I have spent a lot of time in Big Sur, as it is dear to my heart, and yet she still she showed us new exciting spots and angles on our favorite trails. Seriously, amazing. Her talent is out of this world. Plus, she is SO nice. We genuinely loved getting to know Lynn, and Keith! Lynn introduced us to Keith, who officiated our wedding perfectly and is also wonderful. Amazing duo. Thank you for giving us the elopement experience and photos of our dreams! They are seriously, THE BEST. I couldn't think of anyone better to work with! -N+K

I just want to say

INCREDIBLE, DREAMY, BREATHTAKING, SURREAL, UNFORGETTABLE, STUNNING & ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! Those are just the few words to describe my experience with Lynn. Her work is all of that and MORE! I truly can’t recommend her enough! I traveled from SW Kansas to have my wedding in Big Sur & I will never regret or forget it.

Lynn helped me plan the whole thing out, from location, to timeline and all between. She was so conducive in finding a location for our ceremony size. Lynn, just has something about her that will truly put all of your stresses at ease! Don’t walk, RUN to book with her! -L+J

The most amazing photographer

I ever could have hoped for. She was so thorough and her questionnaire beforehand made sure we were fully prepared day of. She was so flexible and willing to help and answer all of my incessant questions haha. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area planning an elopement or wedding.

The photos came out absolutely incredible. We are thrilled! Every detail was taken care of, and my husband was so comfortable with her, considering he isn't super thrilled being photographed in the first place. It didn't take long to feel like old friends and its all thanks to her friendly demeanor and helpful direction. She made sure to get every location we wanted in the time we had allotted. I can't say enough about how happy I am that we chose Lynn for our special day! -F+K

Whether you're like me who has a few too many Excel sheets, or more like my husband who prefers to send cute puppy GIFs over planning any day, I've got you. Here's some insight into what the process looks like:

1

Let's chat! How you met, what you two love to do, what you envision for your wedding day, I want to hear it all! Tell me your story and what you're looking for so that we can see if we'd be a good fit together. You only have one wedding day, and you deserve someone who gets you 100%.

2

Now we plan. Whether you have questions on how to create your timeline, whether you need cake (I'm all for boba, churros, donuts...the options are endless), or ways to make your wedding day special, I can guarantee you that I will be there to help in any way I can. If you're eloping in Big Sur, I'll send over a full planning checklist that goes over everything you need to know, from all the different ceremony sites in every budget to a map of the best hidden gems in the redwoods and on the coast.

3

The day has finally arrived - celebrate and take it all in. As a candid photographer with a focus on documenting your wedding day authentically, I'll be at the ready to capture all the warm hugs and reunions, the secret smiles and glances between the two of you, the belly laughs with your loved ones. When it comes to portraits, don't worry if you're like 99% of my couples who feel awkward in front of the camera - I'm here to direct and help you feel comfortable, to create a space where you can't help smiling and laughing. At the end of the day, my goal is to deliver a gallery that allows you to relive your day and remember all the memories when you look back years later.
