Ohio Planning Resources
"She always took our wants into consideration and was two steps ahead with her planning."
"My husband doesn't like to do pictures and he was very nervous about spending literally an entire day being photographed. Desiree arranged practically everything so that we would be in intimate spaces that wouldn't have a lot of people even though we were in public.
We had to keep track of the weather often (as you have to do if you're in Ohio) and Desiree was so flexible and accommodating when we had to move things around from the original plan. She always took our wants into consideration and was two steps ahead with her planning."

My favorite Ohio Elopement locations:
"From beginning to end, desiree thought about all the details"
"From beginning to end, Desiree thought about all of the details. She had an amazing creative vision for us on our day. I think she captured our goofy personalities and special moments together perfectly. She found absolutely stunning places for photographs. Also, can we talk about the itinerary and the packing reminders list?! Absolutely loved our experience with Desiree and would love to shoot with her again!"

I'm based in Stow, Ohio, and I do travel.
Standard travel fees are included in my elopement packages. Any travel involving the use of a 4x4 vehicle or anything other than a normal commercial airline may be an additional charge.
I recommend starting to book around 6 months out so we can ensure there is enough time to secure your preferred locations and activities. Running on a shorter time frame? No worries, just reach out and we can start planning ASAP!
My planning assistance includes providing advice and recommendations for your elopement day. From there, you would decide on your final locations, activities, and vendors. Then you would book and reserve independently.
As we are planning your elopement, we will think through some back up locations and activities in case of inclement weather. If it is just sprinkling day of, we can likely continue on as normal. In case of more severe weather, we will work together to pivot.
Yes, I am happy to hike with you on your elopement day! I am able to accompany you on up to a half-day (4 hour) hike. If you have something longer in mind, please let me know and I can let you know if it will be possible for me to accompany you.
Yes! You can have up to 15 additional people at your elopement ceremony and celebration. If you would like to include more people in your day, however, I would recommend a photographer who specializes in weddings.
Yes! Depending on the location of your elopement, you can bring your pet(s) along for the fun! You'll just want to be aware of any leash laws or similar policies.
