Las Vegas All-Day Elopement | Desert and The Strip

Disclaimer: no hate to traditional weddings - they are beautiful and elegant and all about doing it big! But we all know how much stress, expense, and chaos come with the planning alone. Haley and Chandler knew just how crazy a traditional wedding would be and said "bump that mess!", ran away to Vegas to elope, and lived happily ever after! Goodnight!

Totally joking -- there's so much more to talk about with this session!

In her inquiry, Haley said that Vegas is one of their top favorite destinations next to the gorgeous state of Colorado. They even named their firstborn Denver! How sweet! When they were deciding where to elope, though, Vegas was the obvious choice to bring together their love of the outdoors and their love of a good time. She even said that when it comes to Vegas, they are OBSESSED. Girl, same.

Haley and Chandler met in college in their psychology class and have been best friends ever since. Chandler is a police officer and Haley is a nurse, and from their friendly and welcoming personalities it's clear that their love for people and serving their community is what drives them.

Haley also asked me for local hair stylist and makeup artist recommendations for their session and I have to say, I LOVE when clients do this! Even though I work all around Nevada and Southern California for engagement and elopement photos, I still love to support everyone in my local Las Vegas area.

Overall, the SEVEN WHOLE HOURS Haley, Chandler, and I spent together rocking around the desert and on the Vegas Strip for their elopement photos were so fun and flew by in a heartbeat! I'm so excited for these two to start their lives together as a married couple!
