Olympic National Park Elopement Photographer
Climb the ridge. Touch the ocean. Get married where the mountains meet the sea.
You know that feeling you get when you see that view you’ve only ever seen in photos?
The one you’ve saved. The one you’ve zoomed into. The one you’ve said, “There’s no way it actually looks like that.”
And then one day… you’re standing there.
Mountains stretching in every direction. Wind in your hair. Deer wandering on the trail.
You look at each other. And it clicks.
This is no longer a background image. This is where you’re saying your vows.
That’s the feeling I want you to have on your wedding day.
Here’s what no one tells you about getting married…
You don’t need a ballroom, an open bar with your cousin Craig, or a buffet-style dinner at the end of the night.
Whatever you want to do is exactly what you should do. And as an Olympic National Park elopement photographer, I just so happen to know the best spots for all of the above…
“Considering we live on the East Coast and had yet to go to Olympic National Park, we were nervous to commit to someone who wasn’t familiar with the area we wanted to get married. Let’s just say that was NOT the case for Bri.
She truly knew this area like the back of her hand and delivered on the goal of taking couple’s “off the beaten path” to have privacy on their big day. She created the most detailed folder for us to have from the very beginning of the process with our elopement timeline, vendor recommendations, Airbnb and restaurant recommendations, you name it, she provided it. Not only did we walk away with the most breathtaking pictures from our wedding day, but we walked away with a new friend.
– Reilly + Brendan
The first time you locked eyes, you knew.
There wasn’t overthinking. There wasn’t a checklist. It just felt right.
And if you’re here, there’s a good chance you’re feeling that same knowing again. That a ballroom wedding doesn’t quite fit. That what you actually want is to feel something.
Like the first “I love you.”
Like the first “Should we get married?”
Eloping in Olympic gives you that feeling.
As someone who’s been an Olympic National Park elopement photographer for over seven years, I’ve watched it happen again and again.
Tears at the first glance of the mountains, laughter when your feet hit the sand, and awe when you get to see a rainforest for the first time.
This is the kind of wedding day I help you build.
(I’m Brianna, btw)
Can I make a guess about you?
You don’t want a wedding you’ll have to convince yourself was worth it.
You want something that actually feels like you. The kind you don’t second-guess on the drive home.
Sometimes that looks like slow mornings and takeout on the couch.
And sometimes it looks like boarding a plane, driving into the mountains of Olympic, and promising your life to your favorite person.
If the rainforests/beaches/waterfalls are calling your name, you know what to do…
(I promise you won’t regret it.)
“If you don’t choose Brianna as your Olympic National Park elopement photographer, you’re doing it all wrong.
We decided on an elopement and it wouldn’t have been possible without Brianna. She is extremely knowledgeable about the area (Olympic National Park) and had so many recommendations for local places to eat, things to do, and other wedding vendors. From the very start she was the most helpful resource we had. I am so extremely grateful we found her!! Aside from all of this- our photos are absolutely breathtaking. I still feel like I’m dreaming.

I’m Brianna, and I didn’t fall in love with Olympic because it was trending.
I’ve spent the last seven years photographing elopements here in every kind of weather. Fog over Hurricane Ridge. Rain in the rainforest. Golden hour on the coast.
Olympic isn’t just location to me. It’s a place I call home each summer.
I know which beaches clear out at sunset, which mountain ceremony locations work for guests, which trails stay quiet even in peak season, and how to pivot when the weather does what Olympic weather does best.
When you hire me as your Olympic National Park elopement photographer, you’re not hiring someone who Googled “best viewpoints” last week.
You’re hiring someone who knows every inch, trail, and tree of the park.
If you’re traveling across the country, or even just driving in for the day, you deserve someone who knows how to plan it right.
I’d love to help you do it well.
Enjoy the view. Kiss each other’s faces. Leave no trace.
Elopements allow us to explore some of Earth’s most beautiful places. We can honor that by keeping those places beautiful. (Don’t know what the heck I’m talking about? Learn more about Leave No Trace principles here. I stand for public lands protections.)
So… what is it actually like to elope in Olympic?
Because deep down, you already know this is the place.
You can see photos. You can hear people talk about it. But until you’re actually there — wind in your hair, wildflowers in the grass — you don’t really understand it.
And once you do, nothing else compares.
And as a Olympic National Park elopement photographer, I’ve helped countless couples navigate every permit, mountain, and guest count so you don’t have to figure it out alone.
If you’re still exploring what eloping here could look like, I put together a full guide that walks through things like:
- locations
- permits
- timelines
- crowds
- lodging recommendations
- cost
- and so much more
Shhhh. Let’s keep this between us…
These are the places as an Olympic National Park elopement photographer that I keep bringing couples back to year after year.
Packages, planning, and permits.
From an Olympic National Park elopement photographer who’s hiked the groves, handled the paperwork, and helped over 50 couples bring their dream day to life, here’s how it works.
Step 1: Don’t be a stranger
Maybe you already have a trail. Or maybe you don’t. Maybe you’ve been to Olympic 100+ times. Or maybe it’s your first. Whatever you’re experience/vision/idea is, I’d love to hear it.
Fill out my contact form where you can schedule a call and we can talk all things mountains/beaches/rainforests.
Step 2: I handle the logistics
After booking, I’ll send personalized location lists, handle permits, help with timelines, recommend trusted vendors. My Olympic National Park elopement packages are built to support you from first inquiry to final gallery, so you’re never left guessing.
Whatever your idea is, I’d love to help you bring it to life.
Step 3: You never want it to end
And then… you’re there.
Feet in the sand, wind in your hair, vow books in hand.
I’ll have to just let you feel it for yourself, when you get here. (And when words fall short, photos speak.)
“From start to finish, Brianna went above and beyond in every possible way. She made our elopement dreams come true.
Planning a wedding can be stressful (especially from across the country!) but thanks to Brianna, the entire process was smooth and easy. We felt overwhelmed at the idea of combing through reviews and did not know which vendors to choose, or really where to begin. From our very first meeting, we immediately connected with Brianna. We felt comfortable trusting her with our most special day.
Her communication was absolutely exceptional. Not only was she organized and professional in how she handled everything, but she was also always available to us—willing to meet with us at any time, and her responses were incredibly prompt. She even made travel resources for us and guests. We never once felt left in the dark or unsure of anything; she kept us completely in the loop and made us feel so supported and important throughout.
She also gave us amazing referrals for food vendors, bakeries, lodging, flowers, decorators, and officiants—every one of them was top-notch and made planning so much easier. We knew we could trust her; she was upfront, transparent, and gave accurate quotes from the beginning—no surprises, no stress. And we can say, every single one of her referrals delivered in spades.
You could feel her passion for our day and her work from the very start. She took the time to ask what we really wanted and then helped craft the experience exactly as we envisioned it. The surveys she gave us and the questions she asked help to perfectly capture our dreams. She then took time to personalize our photo spots based upon what we were hoping for. She listened and understood. Her suggestions were thoughtful, creative, and truly personalized. Even planning from across the country, she made us feel confident and cared for. Her consideration to our needs and interests kept us grounded throughout the planning process. We never felt alone.
On the day of the elopement, she was calm, collected, positive, and an incredible presence. She kept us on time and made everything flow smoothly—without ever making us feel rushed. Throughout the course of the day, it felt like we were hanging out and laughing with a loving friend. And most importantly, she captured the essence of our day beautifully. The photos are heartfelt, authentic, and truly everything we had hoped for. Working with her was one of the best decisions we made.
