Asheville Elopement & Intimate Wedding Photographer
planning and capturing Fairytale elopements in the enchanted Blue Ridge Mountains!
You've always dreamed of a cozy mountain wedding (think waking up together in a cozy mountain cabin, saying your vows on top of the Blue Ridge Mountains, going on a brewery tour downtown Asheville to celebrate and ending the day with roasting marshmallows under the stars!
Meet the Photographer
Hey, I'm Dominique!
I’m an Asheville elopement and intimate wedding photographer for couples who crave connection, adventure, and a celebration that feels like it’s been pulled from the pages of your own fairytale. Whether you’re imagining misty mountaintop vows or a cozy ceremony tucked away in the forest, Asheville is the perfect place to begin your story!
As someone who calls Asheville home, I know this place like the back of my hand. From the fog-kissed ridgelines of Craggy Gardens to hidden wildflower meadows at Max Patch, I’ve explored just about every trail, overlook, and cozy cabin this region has to offer. I don’t just photograph here...I live and breathe these mountains!
With years of experience capturing elopements and intimate weddings in Asheville, I bring more than just a camera. I’m your guide, your location scout, and your calm in the chaos. I’ll help you find the perfect ceremony spot (even the secret ones), avoid the crowds, work around mountain weather, and make planning feel effortless. You bring the love story, I’ll bring the local know-how (and probably a trail snack or two)!
Four Seasons of Beauty
From blooming wildflowers in spring, to the fiery foliage of fall, to snow-dusted peaks in winter...every season offers a unique kind of magic!
The Blue Ridge Mountains
Rolling ridgelines, glowing golden-hour light, misty trails, and cinematic views that feel like they’re straight from a dream.
The Blue Ridge Mountains create the most stunning backdrop for a storybook adventure!
If you love beer and craft cocktails...
After your vows, head into Asheville for craft brews, rooftop cocktails, or a candlelit dinner in a cozy mountain bistro!
We are known as "Beer City, USA" and are considered the craft beer capital!
"Dominique is an amazing person and photographer. She created a space where Adam and I could be unapologetically ourselves. Every photo captured the love we have for each other with a timeless and romantic touch. She is so talented and kind. We immediately heard from her as soon as we initially reached out, and we knew we wanted her to capture our special moments!"

My Favorite Asheville & Blue Ridge Mountain Elopement Locations!
There’s no shortage of fairytale-worthy spots to say “I do” around Asheville. A few of my favorites include:
Craggy Gardens – For those misty, moody mountain vibes and epic sunset views
Max Patch – Open fields, wildflowers, and 360° dreamscape panoramas
Black Balsam Knob – Easy hike, otherworldly views, and magical light
Looking Glass Falls or Catawba Falls – Say your vows with the sound of rushing water behind you
Downtown Asheville – Colorful murals, vintage architecture, and post-ceremony brews at one of our 30+ local breweries
Whether you want a sunrise vow exchange on a mountaintop or a candlelit picnic under the stars, I’ll help you find a location that speaks to your hearts.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
This is more than just pretty photos on a mountaintop in Italy (though, let’s be real… we’re definitely getting those). My heart is fully in helping you create a day that feels like you—fun, meaningful, relaxed, and full of real connection. I want this to be a full-on experience, not just a photoshoot.
My philosophy?
The best photos happen when you’re having the time of your life—laughing, exploring, being present with your person, not stressing about timelines or posing. I’m here to take the pressure off, guide you through every part of the process, and help you create something that’s not only beautiful but deeply true to you.
My love of storytelling...
When it comes to editing and storytelling, I lean into a timeless, film-inspired aesthetic that feels like a scene from your favorite movie—dreamy, rich, and full of soul. These are the kinds of images that tell the full story: the wind in your hair, the way you looked at each other when no one else was around, the wild joy of running barefoot through an olive grove.

"I cannot say enough positive things about Dominique! She did an amazing job shooting our engagement photos in Colorado then surpassed that at our wedding! She kept the shoots fun and made us feel so comfortable. You will not regret choosing Dominique as your photographer!"

This is for the couples who dream big and want every moment of their wild, unforgettable day captured—from sunrise to sunset (and maybe even a little stargazing after).
Twelve hours might sound like a lot, but when you’re exploring the most jaw-dropping corners of the country with your person, time slips away in the best way. Whether it’s hiking through alpine trails, off-roading to secret overlooks, brewery hopping, rock climbing, paddle boarding, or simply chasing golden light together—this is your chance to do it all, and have it all documented with intention and heart.
It’s the ultimate all-day adventure. And yes, a premium heirloom album is included, because a day like this deserves to be remembered forever!

This package is designed for couples who want to slow down, soak it all in, and truly live their elopement day—without feeling rushed. With a full day to explore, we’ll have space for everything from quiet getting ready moments to heartfelt vows, scenic locations, time with loved ones, a mountaintop picnic, a spontaneous first dance—whatever feels like you.

This is my most loved and booked package...and for good reason. It gives us time to create something real, honest, and completely you!

4 Hour Elopement
$4200
This short and sweet elopement package is made for couples who are ready to skip the fuss and dive straight into what matters most—sharing vows and capturing a beautiful little adventure along the way.
I only open up a handful of these 4-hour elopement spots each year, because I’ve found that the full magic of an elopement really shines in a full-day experience. That’s where we can slow down, explore more, and tell your story in a deeper, more intentional way.
