Eloping isn’t about running away to get married, 
It’s about choosing the kind of love story that feels true to you.

Your elopement can be simple or bold.
Quiet or adventurous.
Cliffside, oceanside, or tucked away in the woods.

Whether you’re travelling to Nova Scotia for an intimate celebration or you’re local and dreaming of something meaningful and small, I’ll help you create a day that feels like yours.

NOVA SCOTIA ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY

ELOPING IN NOVA SCOTIA FROM MAINE

Many couples travel to Yarmouth by the CAT Ferry from Bar Harbor, Maine, and it’s one of the most beautiful ways to begin an elopement journey.

If you’re arriving by ferry:

• You’ll land right here in Yarmouth, minutes from stunning cliffs, quiet beaches, and iconic Nova Scotia landscapes.
• I know the best local elopement spots for sunrise, sunset, fog, wind, and everything in between.
• We can build an intimate timeline that works perfectly with your ferry arrival and travel plans.

Whether you want something private, adventurous, or simply peaceful... Yarmouth is one of the most underrated elopement destinations on the East Coast.

Planning to arrive by ferry? Let's craft your perfect Nova Scotia Elopement!

Your gallery will look and feel like a short film, moody, emotional, honest, and full of meaning.

Cinematic Storytelling

I know hidden paths, rugged coastlines, quiet forest trails, and lighthouse lookouts perfect for intimate vows.

Locations That Feel Like Magic

No stiff instructions.
Just simple prompts that help you connect, move, and be yourselves.

Gentle Guidance, Never Awkward Posing

Your elopement is not a rushed ceremony.
We breathe. We explore. We wander.
We let the day unfold naturally.

A Space to Slow Down

The Experience

Eloping means freedom... the freedom to design a day that reflects your relationship, not tradition.

Here’s what your experience with me feels like:

Who Eloping is for

Eloping is perfect if you:

• want something intimate, meaningful, and true to your relationship
• value experience over tradition
• love nature, the ocean, or quiet moments
• prefer a day without rigid timelines or expectations
• want your vows to feel private and deeply personal

If that sounds like you, we’re already a beautiful match.

Raelynn was able to go with the flow and adjust with us to still beautifully capture our big day. She listened to all of our ideas and created a fun and friendly environment that allowed us to enjoy our session and get more intimate photos that we will forever treasure. 6 months later we got to meet again for precious golden hour baby announcement photos!

We actually have a massive one developed that we hang proudly in our room and have received many compliments on.

Our special day landed just days before she was about to give birth - a testament to her commitment towards her passion for her profession.

We recommend her to anyone seeking a talented and dedicated photographer for their special day.

Her professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to capture genuine moments left us in awe"

I personally love her detail shots, they feel extremely intimate. Thank you for a great experience, I’m sure my soon to be husband will love the surprise photos on our wedding day 🤍

especially for something as intimate as boudoir..."
