Why Should You Elope in Arizona?

Arizona boasts enchanting desert environments for couples that want adventure weddings and outdoor elopements.

Here’s how to find the perfect spot for your Arizona wedding or elopement.

Arizona is surprisingly diverse for a state known only for deserts. But Arizona is so much more than that, so making the right choice for your wedding can be tough. Luckily, your Arizona elopement photographer can help. (AKA—me!)

As an Arizona elopement photographer, it’s my top priority to put you at ease and capture the special moments of your wedding day.

Photography


Arizona requires an ordained minister and two witnesses for a legal wedding ceremony. Good news! We have an officiant on staff.

You might need a permit to get married in a national park, state park, or public location. If a permit is required, we’re happy to help you through the process.

Arizona is famous for its dry heat. We can help you look good while staying comfortable, no matter what the elements have in store.

Meet Your Arizona Elopement Photographer

I went to college in Arizona and even met my husband there! We went on so many trips to Sedona and Flagstaff, so it still holds a special place in my heart.

With so many natural wonders and cultural hot spots, it’s no wonder why I keep coming back. That’s one of the reasons why my husband and I choose to live in a van, driving all over Arizona to photograph weddings and elopements.

Even when I’m not working a wedding, I still have my trusty camera in hand to capture all that beauty. Let me show you what my lens sees.

“With Diana you don’t just get a photographer, you get a planner, second set of eyes, a confidant, and a friend. She made us feel like we had taken professional pictures before and like we knew what we were doing (we didn’t).”

-Alexis S.

“Absolutely the best experience we could have asked for. Diana made us so relaxed and kept everything fun! She was professional and helped us with planning and through the wedding day. Not only do I fully recommend a National Park wedding, I fully recommend using Diana.”

-Maddie N.

“It's hard to sum up just how incredible Diana is. She is so approachable, genuine and fun. My husband and I eloped in AZ with a few friends and we honestly felt as if we'd known Diana for years with how easily she fit into our group!”

-Bella P.S.
