Bella + Ty were originally supposed to have a dreamy elopement in Italy. Of course, 2020 had other plans. They decided they weren’t going to wait anymore and planned the drive from Minnesota to Atlanta with their rescue dog, Misty, to elopement at an Airbnb Treehouse. It might not have been what they had planned but it was magical in its own way. They soaked up the crisp, November air as they exchanged vows and had their first dance. Their sweet pup made everything more fun as she photobombed many photos and got to be a part of their day. This afternoon was a dream as we photographed this Atlanta Treehouse Elopement.
about eloping
This was a dream day for them as much as it was for us! We spent over 3 hours getting to know them, playing with their pup, and capturing their love story. It was a fun, unique start to their marriage. While eloping is not for everyone, it’s becoming less taboo, especially these days, and we are here for it. Wedding days aren’t always conducive for a photography emphasis. They can be SO much and sweet, but often only allow for 30-45 minutes newlywed portraits. Bella and Ty had 3 hours of coverage that allowed for lots of detail photos, photos with their pup, and breathing room in between shots.
Elopements are 1000% about just the bride and groom, no agenda, no pressure, no one else to please. It’s a start to marriage that doesn’t leave you exhausted and drained, but with hours of memories and adventures. Again, elopements aren’t for everyone, but we strongly suggest them if you would rather climb a mountain for epic shots rather than spend hours chatting with guests. If breaking it down on the dance floor and spending $3000+ on food isn’t your thing, maybe look at a dream travel destination or your favorite local spot to start your marriage. It’s unique, sweet, completely about you two, and our favorite thing to be a part of as photographers.
we want to join you!
If this sounds like a dream to you, let us know + we’re right behind. To be honest, our bags are already packed!
We can’t wait to continue to capture these moments with more elopements in 2021!
