HELLO,
WE’RE HENRY & SERGIO AND WE’RE COMMITTED TO YOUR WASHINGTON ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE
We’re one of the original elopement photographers before elopements became popular. Since 2018, we’ve helped over 200 couples elope all over Washington State and across the world.
Although our main duty is capturing you and your love in the most breath-taking landscapes, we are more than just photographers. We help couples craft an intentional experience that allows honest emotions to reveal themselves because everyone deserve to truly and fully immerse themselves into the day that commemorates the beginning of something new, magical, and worth every second living for.
Just like where you are today, we each also went through wedding planning with our own life partner.
We learned that at the core of who we are as humans, we already know how we want to live, to love, to experience this life.
But somehow, the external noises of expectations can often drown out what we truly believe in – and this happens quite often when it comes to weddings.
We want to empower you through the whole journey of wedding & elopement planning
Here are some places you might have seen our work on adventure elopement photography and how we’ve helped couples like yourselves:

WHY ELOPE IN WASHINGTON?
Adventurous Washington Elopement – Epic Love Deserves An Epic Location
We photograph love the way love naturally occurs: organically and tenderly. On your elopement day, you should be able to forget the world and just be with the one(s) who matters the most
So trust us to be there to celebrate you and with you. To hold your hands, to cry with you, and to create memories that will last a lifetime for you
We are inspired by your story, your voice, the way the wind touches your face, the way you look into each other’s eyes and tell each other your vows.
Washington State is our home and after years of hiking the rugged North Cascades, camped under the shadow of Mt. Rainier, and danced with the windy shore of the Olympic National Park, we can confidently say that Washington is truly the Pacific Northwest’s gem with multi-faceted beauty that is perfect for your wedding & elopement experience.

KIND WORDS
He was as much of a helpful planner as he is an AMAZING photographer.
We both admire his work and when it came to our day, if it’s even possible, Henry surpassed any expectation we could have had!! He was accessible through the whole planning process. He helped us keep little surprise secrets from each other, helped us choose where to stay, and had an amazing, vast knowledge, and solid recommendations of the several locations and hikes we should choose from. He even helped us pick places to go in the days after, including a recommendation for his favorite sushi place (which did not disappoint). He was as much of a helpful planner as he is an AMAZING photographer. The day of our elopement, Henry made our kids, our fur babies, and us, feel comfortable in front of his lens. He expressed excitement and joy in capturing every intimate moment throughout the day, and we absolutely felt like way more than just another client for him. We were both in tears as we looked through the beautiful sneak peek gallery that he sent, and we haven’t stopped looking through the gallery, a week later! We are eternally grateful for Henry, for both his amazing talent, and for his beautiful, kind soul.

Obviously incredible photos, but an overall amazing experience with Sergio!
Wow. Just, wow.
Our entire experience with Sergio was absolute perfection. There are quite a few options out there when it comes to choosing an elopement photographer, and I am so grateful we made the best decision in choosing Sergio. What a total, complete gem of a human he is, along with his very obvious skills with a camera! We were nervous about spending our 1:1 time with another person around, but if anything, Sergio enhanced that experience for us: making us laugh, sharing in our joy, and helping us to ensure we were capturing our day the way we wanted to. Everything felt incredibly natural and Sergio knew exactly what we wanted in our day and delivered it. I can’t thank him enough for the day he provided us and the memories he helped capture in our day!

VICTORIA & RONNIE
ELOPED IN WASHINGTON STATE
Henry is top tier! We feel so lucky to have got to work with him for our elopement. My husband and I are not the type that like being the center of attention. We wanted to get married and have it feel special and be in the moment. I found Henry on Instagram and knew he was who I wanted to work with, his art is unmatched! Henry is so much more than a photographer. He helped us choose a location and an Airbnb. Gave us recommendations for flowers, officiants, hair and makeup. He was pretty much our wedding coordinator 😉 When the day finally came Henry had done his research on the location. He went to check out the spot for the ceremony before we met for the day. He was checking the tide and keeping an eye on the weather. He was super flexible when we voiced our concerns for staying as dry as possible for the ceremony. He was totally fine with switching up the plan due to the weather. At the end of the day when we said our goodbyes my husband and I couldn’t stop talking about how much fun we had and how amazing of a person Henry is! It felt like hanging out with a friend all day. Like I said we both don’t love being the center of attention, we never felt awkward during our photos being taken, Henry made us feel so comfortable and made it so easy to be in the moment and enjoy our day!
Trust me, you will not regret working with Henry! He sent us sneak peaks a day after our elopement. It wasn’t just a few photos, he sent us 80!! On top of a few fun GIFs. It was so special to receive some photos so fast and also reassure our decision to work with Henry. The photos were mind blowing. We have received SO many compliments, they are simply perfection. I truly can’t recommend Henry enough!!
LEXI & CHELSEY
ELOPED IN THE NORTH CASCADES
We are from Georgia and knew we wanted to get married in the PNW. We were initially thinking about Mt. Rainier but during our first conversation with Henry, he recommended a different location with much shorter hiking. We immediately felt like he was listening and wanted to help make our elopement perfect. And perfect is an understatement. Other than his immaculate work, Henry is the greatest hype man and encourager. Given that it was just my wife and I who were there and we both wanted a first look, Henry helped both of us get into our dresses and even helped put on skin tape. We had a small snafu of forgetting our bouquets at our Airbnb, but Henry was so patient and talked with us through the realization.
And the photos, are you kidding me? Henry got us sneak peeks the day following our elopement and I have not stopped looking at them since. I cannot begin to describe the overwhelming joy these pictures give me. As someone who was not sure that my love could ever be celebrated, Henry made sure to capture everything wonderful about my love. Every single person who I have shown the pictures to has had the same reaction – in just complete awe. Several have even stated they want to get married again just so they could work with Henry.
I would recommend Henry to anybody and everybody who is considering working with him. It was the best decision I ever made (other than marrying my wife)!
ALISA & SHAWN
ELOPED IN MT. RAINIER NATIONAL PARK
Henry is above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined in an elopement photographer. We knew we wanted to work with him when we first came across his work because he posses the rare ability to capture the intimacy of a moment as well as the grandeur of any landscape. He is an incredible human being and an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire process. His creativity, artistry, is on a whole other level, and we are in love with every single image he captured.
From our first phone call together, Henry was able to answer any questions we had and provide great recommendations based on his experiences. We had never visited Mt. Rainier National Park, so he helped us choose and plan for our particular hike and location.
Henry made the entire planning process FUN. What normally is a daunting, stressful experience turned out to be one of the most fun adventures to plan. When we got to the big day, we really struggled to find anything to worry about.
When Henry arrived to begin capturing our elopement, he jumped right in. He knew what questions to ask and was able to be incredibly creative while on the fly. When he envisions something in his imagination, he knows how to bring it to life. He coached us through each part of the process that day and everyone felt comfortable and relaxed. You can see the evidence of this in the photos he took.
Speaking of his photos, we loved every single one that he took and shared with us in the sneak peaks. Henry knows how to “paint with light,” and his photos are absolutely breathtaking. We couldn’t be happier.
