entirely yours.

Elopement photography by Jordan Kelm

A quiet exchange of vows. A few favorite people. Room to be present. However you choose to marry, the photographs should feel like you.

Less production. All the feeling.

Small in scale.
Full of meaning.

With eleven years behind the camera, I bring a thoughtful eye to the moments that matter: the anticipation, the promises, and the way you look at each other when the day finally slows down.

Based in Tri-Cities, Washington, I photograph celebrations in Richland, Kennewick and Pasco and elopements worldwide. From Washington and the Pacific Northwest to a destination across the globe, I would love to hear what you are imagining. Contact me for pricing and availability for your date, destination and plans.

A feel for the photographs

The place. The details.
The two of you.

Connection, movement and the quiet details worth remembering.

A few helpful details

Your elopement,
considered.

Do you photograph elopements in the Tri-Cities?

Yes. I welcome elopement inquiries in Richland, Kennewick and Pasco, throughout Washington and the Pacific Northwest, and worldwide. Contact me with your date and destination for pricing and availability.

Can we include a few guests?

Your celebration can be just the two of you or include a small group of people you love. Tell me the guest count and what you have planned so we can discuss the right coverage.

What if we have not chosen a date or location?

You can inquire while your plans are still taking shape. Share your preferred season, the kind of setting you love and any locations you are considering.

Do you photograph destination elopements worldwide?

Yes. I photograph elopements worldwide, with a home base in Tri-Cities, Washington. My wedding work has taken me across the Pacific Northwest and to Hawaii, Mexico and Spain. Contact me for pricing and availability for your destination; travel arrangements and costs are tailored to your plans.

Are permits, an officiant or a marriage license included?

Photography coverage does not by itself arrange legal requirements or venue access. Confirm marriage-license rules, officiant requirements and any photography or location permits with the relevant authorities or venue.

How much does elopement photography cost?

Coverage and travel depend on the date, location and plans. Inquire for a personalized quote and current availability. Submitting an inquiry does not reserve a date.

How do we book?

Start with an inquiry describing your date or preferred season, location and the celebration you have in mind. We will discuss coverage, pricing and the steps needed to confirm your booking.

What is included in an elopement photography collection?

Every final keeper is included, with professional editing, natural retouching and high-resolution and web-sized digital downloads. There are no additional editing or image-download fees. Coverage and travel are tailored to your plans.

How many photographs will we receive?

There is no image-count limit: every final keeper is included. I carefully select every keeper that meets my standards, then edit and naturally retouch those images. The final count depends on your coverage and what unfolds during your day.

Can we share our gallery and order prints?

Yes. Your online gallery includes high-resolution and web-sized downloads and easy sharing with family and friends. Professional-quality prints and products are available to purchase through my photography labs, with no obligation to order.

How long does gallery delivery take?

Your delivery timeline is confirmed with your individual collection before booking. Ask about your timing needs when you inquire.
