Carlee + Austin | Elopement in the Tetons
Carlee and Austin were married on a stormy fall day at Schwabacher’s Landing with their closest family and friends gathered in a small circle around them. The rain and wind moved through the valley all afternoon, but we caught the perfect break in the weather for their ceremony, giving them a moody, romantic backdrop that felt unmistakably like autumn in the Tetons. They rolled with every shift in the day and trusted the process, and we documented the love, the people, and the details exactly as they unfolded, rain or shine. Because most of my wedding collections include “in case it rains” coverage, we planned a second portrait day and soaked up the sunshine, colorful fall leaves, and Teton views at the Moulton Barn. While dogs aren’t allowed at Schwabacher’s Landing, we did sneak in a few sweet shots with their pups later in dog approved areas. The entire celebration was intimate, heartfelt, and beautifully them.
