We're Autumn & Kyle
Artists creating intimate adventure elopements
I'm Autumn, the voice behind our company and creator of our elopement experiences. When I first meet someone I truly believe I've met them for a reason, I believe in fate and destiny. My connections with other humans runs deep, I genuinely want to know you down to your very core. I want real feelings, real honesty, real fears and real love. I use my camera as a vessel to capture these real moments in life. My passion is harnessing those moments in photographs for you to have, and to share, forever. Whether they take place in a cathedral, a small backyard gathering, or on the cliffs of a foreign cou
ntryside, I strive to capture the power of those emotions for you.
Together, with my partner, Kyle, we make a dream elopement team. We are unique in that we offer photography, live acoustic music, and officiant services all in one package.

Autumn Marie
Lake Tahoe Photographer and Elopement planner
I want to hear all your stories and not the PG-13 versions, I want to hear them from you like you're talking to your best friends. I want to be able to look at you and your partner like I know who you are and capture your true selfs. I'm pretty much an open book so If you want to hear my stories just ask (though you probably won't have to ask). I didn't go to some fancy school, I went through something even better, a hard life at an early age and one that was filled with adventures and more life lessons than I can count the world of traveling taught me more than I could've ever learned in a classroom. I took off at the age of 17 on my own to work at multiple National parks and picked up a variety of skills and worked with people from every part of the world at these parks. It changed my life and made me fall in love with nature.
I ended up in Montana for about 5 years which is when I started my professional photography career path by mentoring under an incredible group of photographers and later continuing my online studies on business and social media marketing. Most would call me an old soul. I love curling up and watching an old movie, getting creative in the kitchen, throwing on my favorite record and enjoying a glass of wine, or two.
I'm currently based in South Lake Tahoe, CA but I'm down to travel anywhere and go on a new adventure with you. I have been shooting weddings and elopements for 5 years and can't wait for all the future love stories I'll tell.
More About Kyle...
Kyle Kirch
Lake Tahoe Officiant & Musician
Hey, I'm Kyle and my passion in life is music. I love writing it as much as I love playing it. It has been at the center of my life since I was about 15. Growing up in the small mountain town of South Lake Tahoe gifted me with musical opportunities that, I feel, are unique. There are so many talented people in that town, and being able to see each other at gigs, jam with each other after hours, it really helps you pull ideas and understandings from various styles and abilities. From black metal to bluegrass, there was always someone playing something new or different than me, and I feel that exposure to all types of genres and players solidified an appreciation and style within me as a player as well as a songwriter. Aside from music, I have always been an outdoor kid. I was lucky to grow up within riding distance of trailheads and beaches in Northern California. And I didn't take that for granted at all as a kid.
From my first conversation with Autumn she was bright, charismatic, and unlike anyone I'd ever met. I knew that very shortly after, this was who I was going to be with for the rest of my life.
It was when we got the green-light on our first joint adventure elopement that the idea of a truly unique elopement team was born. I'm excited to see what the future holds and where our next couples are going to take us. Wherever it is, I got my backpack and my guitar and I'm ready to go.

Pricing
It's important that you understand the value we offer.
I know it can be stressful to plan your dream elopement or intimate wedding on a budget but I'm here to tell you this is the easy part of your decision making. While other vendors require 100%-50% down to book your date we are different. Paying for half of a wedding up front is never ideal so we have a payment plan option for all of our packages. You only have to pay a 30% retainer fee upfront along with spilt monthly or quarterly payments leading up to your wedding day. Also we accept credit cards, Paypal, Venmo and direct bank transfers.

Autumn is amazing. She is sweet and funny and made me feel really comfortable, while also being professional and respectful. She didn't have a time limit so I didn't feel rushed at all, and she was able to capture the most beautiful moments. My pictures turned out beautiful and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer
-Nathalia and Ryan
Autumn’s photos take you back to the moment and I can actually feel the emotions we had during our wedding by looking at her photos of us. She makes you feel so comfortable and helps with shyness in front of the camera. Also, she is hilarious and I always have a great time with her. She actually flew all the way to Austin, TX for our engagement pictures and also flew to Arkansas for the wedding. She makes every session so personal and comfortable. I have never felt comfortable with being center of attention, but Autumn made me feel confident and beautiful. I highly recommend her for wedding, engagement, family, or whatever type of photos you’d like! I can’t wait for her to shoot future photos of us!
- Megan & Lyle
Autumn is the best! She listened to what we were hoping to have with our photos and then ran with it. I’m in love with every single shot she took and she was hilarious and easy to work with in person! Do not hesitate to book her - you won’t regret it!
