A wedding as wild as your love
You did not fall in love in a banquet hall. You fell in love on dusty trails, under open skies, chasing light through canyon walls and alpine meadows.
Peakbound Elopements was built for the couples who want their wedding day to feel like them, unhurried, intentional, and set against landscapes that take your breath away.
From the volcanic peaks of the Pacific Northwest to the granite spires of the Tetons and the wild heart of Glacier, we plan and photograph elopements across the American West that become the stories you tell for the rest of your lives.
Meet Ashley & Preston
We are Ashley and Preston, a husband and wife photography and planning team based in Sedona, Arizona. We have been shooting professionally since 2019, working with couples across the American West as well as on commercial projects with brands like Marriott and Hyatt. We also own and operate a proposal photography business in Sedona, so we know how to capture the most important moments of your relationship from beginning to forever.
We shoot on Canon mirrorless systems with professional R series lenses, delivering gallery-quality images in every condition, from golden hour summits to shaded canyon floors. Together we have visited over 30 national parks and have deep experience shooting in national parks and forests all across the West. We know firsthand how powerful it is to celebrate your love in wild places. We chose to spend our own wedding moments in Grand Teton National Park, then traveled to Washington's Cascades for an elopement session, because we understand deeply how special it is to say I do somewhere that makes you feel small in the best possible way.
We do not just show up with a camera. We plan your day from the ground up, from permits and timing to location scouting and logistics, so all you have to do is show up and get married.

The West is our backyard
We specialize in the national parks and wild places of the American West. These are a few of our favorite locations, though we are always open to exploring somewhere new with you.
Jagged granite peaks reflected in glacial lakes. One of the most dramatic wedding backdrops in the country.
Alpine wildflower meadows, ancient glaciers, and a volcano that commands every single frame.
Going-to-the-Sun Road, turquoise lakes, and wilderness that feels genuinely untouched.
Towering sandstone walls and hoodoo amphitheaters. Canyon country unlike anywhere else on earth.
Remote, rugged, and impossibly beautiful. The American Alps for couples who want something truly off the beaten path.
Fourteeners, wildflower basins, and the golden aspen corridors of a Colorado fall.
Simple, intentional, unforgettable
