Planning any kind of wedding is met with a wall of opinions on what you “should do” from strangers or even those close to you.

We’re here to ask and support you to make choices to create a wedding experience that feels authentic and true to you.

Eloping allows you the space to connect, slow down, and create intentional moments that create the memories you’ll look back on for years to come. A wedding experience that celebrates your unfiltered self without the obligations and conformity.

A Tailored Experience that goes beyond the Vows & Ceremony

There are no templates or formulas because you deserve a wedding experience that feels genuine and grounded.

Whether that’s spending the day just the two of you or with 10 of your closest loved ones, going on a long hike to the most amazing overlook to read your vows together, or driving out to a short hike in a spot that feels just like home then dancing the night away beneath the stars — deep in the heart of Texas. An elopement is an intentionally intimate wedding experience where the focus is placed solely on you as the couple.

We’re here to celebrate and support you however that looks like. And we’ll help you custom craft every little detail of your day to fully represent and celebrate your relationship.

The session [Sol & Sand] provided felt very personal and ‘tailor fit’ to us as a couple rather than a cookie-cutter setup. Kevin and Nora are clearly very passionate about what they do and that is clearly what is needed for wedding photography!

How do we do it?

A Caring Approach

Our approach is rooted in empathy, unwavering support, and a genuine investment in your love story. We're ready to listen, creating a safe and nurturing space for you to express yourselves authentically and become fully immersed in the moment. Your journey is not just an event to us; it's a heartfelt experience we deeply care about.


A Tailored Experience

We believe that every couple's love story is unique, and your elopement should reflect that individuality. This is why we take the time to truly get to know each couple we work with, we are deeply invested in your love story, and getting it to be as personal as we can is a fundamental part of our process. From that, we’ll create personalized location ideas, vendor recommendations, a thoughtfully designed timeline, and activity ideas to help craft your dream wedding experience.

Supportive Guidance

Throughout the planning process, we’ll offer valuable advice drawn from our years of experience and knowledge. You'll also have access to our comprehensive Elopement Planning Guidebook, a resource designed to help you navigate every step of your elopement journey. We're with you every step of the way, ensuring your celebration is as stress-free as it is memorable.

YOUR PHOTO & VIDEO DUO

This is a once-in-lifetime experience, who you trust matters.

We’re Nora & Kevin

We understand the isolating feeling that comes from making unconventional choices when surrounded by traditions. We also know the challenge of trying to meet the expectations of others that don't quite align with who you are. We firmly believe that couples like you should never have an ounce of worry about being accepted, seen, and safe — especially on your wedding day.

We’re here to make you feel valued, seen and cared for.

We Know Hiring a Photographer and a Videographer feels like “a bit much”

But consider this…

Your wedding day is a celebration of all the time you both have invested into this relationship that brought you to this day. This day is going to be the day you’ll remember every year on your anniversary. So much happens in the little moments before and after you read your vows, and those moments are what define you both as a couple.

Couples who choose to have big weddings get the entire story of their day documented, so why shouldn’t you?

We’ll capture your special day, but the difference is you’ll hardly know we’re there.

We understand that the idea of having both photo and video coverage might seem overwhelming, but our approach is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. Our goal is to capture the genuine moments that unfold throughout the day without disrupting the natural flow of your celebration.

Photos & video of your all-day elopement…

  • Tell the story of your wedding both visually and audibly

  • Allow your loved ones a chance to relive your day with you if they weren’t there

  • Become the way you’ll remember your day for years to come

  • Allow you to relive how your wedding day felt, beyond your ceremony

Create a day filled with meaning

Having an elopement means being able to invest in the elements you cherish most.

Choosing to elope means you’re investing in your experience together over anything else, and that shows how much you care. Dedicating a whole day to being grounded with your partner and celebrating your wedding true to your relationship is why we offer full-day coverage for our elopements. So much happens in the little moments before and after you read your vows, and those moments are what define you both as a couple.

We want to encapsulate the way your hand fits in theirs, the sweet looks that no one sees, the lifelong adventure you’re about to embark on, and every little moment in between.

It’s time for your love to be truly seen.

Love Notes

FAQs

Still wondering about a few things?

We want you to feel reassured and comfortable.

  • Not at all! Most couples who reach out usually have a general vision for their experience, but since this process is a collaboration, we can work together to refine that vision, nail down the details, and bring that vision to life.

  • This is actually the first thing we’ll help y’all figure out once you contact us. During your free consultation call, we’ll talk about what’s possible and help you pick the right amount of coverage for you — based on your vision and priorities. And you can always add more coverage time throughout the planning process.

  • Yes, Photo-Exclusive and Video-Exclusive packages are offered on a case-by-case basis, depending on our availability. You can fill out our contact form and let us know you’re interested in finding out more about a service-exclusive package.

  • Absolutely, typically we require a retainer fee that is 50% of your total to secure your date and then the rest of the total is due by 30 days before your wedding date. But we also have other payment plans available and we’d love to build a custom one that fits your needs on our call together. Contact us to schedule your call.

  • Your elopement experience should be one where you feel seen, valued, and supported — if including loved ones on your wedding day is what makes this day feel like that, then yes! You can definitely still have an elopement experience and a day that’s fully centered on you and your relationship with your loved ones involved.

    There are plenty of ways to include those closest to you in your elopement. If you need tips on how to incorporate this for your special day, let us know!

  • Embracing the outdoors for your wedding day means acknowledging elements beyond our control, such as the weather. We genuinely enjoy adapting to unforeseen circumstances as it becomes part of the unique story of your day. However, we're well-prepared to pivot plans where necessary. When crafting your location list, we’ll also develop alternative plans that are just as remarkable, if not better, than the original.

  • Nope! There are plenty of beautiful locations in Texas that are accessible and only involve a short walk. We can hike under a mile on your day, and still access some beautiful, private spots. Another option is to take an alternate form of transportation on your elopement day. This allows you to have plenty of adventure without the hike!

  • As fellow Texans, we'd love to help y’all discover the best locations that fit your vision. Once we get to know y’all’s story better, we can help you dream up the best vision for your day. After we discuss your vision and priorities for your day, we’ll curate a list of the best-fit elopement ideas for your experience.

  • In Texas, you must have an ordained officiant sign your marriage license. There are plenty of options to go about this and we can help you evaluate which is best for your celebration.

    If you’d rather not have to worry about the paperwork or inviting an officiant along for your intimate elopement ceremony, a popular option is signing the paperwork at another time at a courthouse.

    If friends and family will join you on your elopement day, another option is for one to get ordained and perform your ceremony. This is another popular option and getting ordained is easier than you’d think!

    We can also help in making your marriage official, as both of us are ordained officiants and can legally sign your marriage license.
