The Soča Valley is known locally for it's crystal blue waters, bone white beaches, plunging canyons and plentiful waterfalls.

If you love water and mountains, a Slovenia elopement cannot be beat. There are few places with this many miles of pristine kayaking, fly fishing and canyoneering. The dense network of mountain passes, alpine huts and luxury chalets offer leisurely adventure for all.

The best part?

Every person, body and ability can choose their own adventure here. You tell me what you're most excited about, and I help you discover all the ways it's possible.

From Ljubljana's hip center, to the outdoor paradises of Bovec and Lake Bled, there is something here just for you.

Meet Slovenia's Triglav NP, Soča Valley & iconic Lake Bled

Promise to keep this our little secret?

An elopement in the Slovenian Alps checks all boxes. It has the scenery of a Swiss village, with better food, lower prices and fewer crowds.

If you're drawn to slower, more immersive travel, then ditch the herd for this lesser known alpine paradise.

Slovenia is off the beaten path for many, meaning you'll be surrounded by outdoor loving locals vs. hoards of day tourists. Land in Venice for a romantic evening, then make the stunning 3 hour trip north through the eastern Dolomites and into the lush Slovenian Alps.


Shhhh, don't spoil this gem on the 'Gram!!!

it's a big bad world out there...

What does a 10 hour Slovenia elopement look like?

an example timeline:

7-9am

Getting ready

Get ready in a charming wooden chalet in Triglav, or along the shores of Lake Bled. Share a coffee and the morning stillness as you write your vows.

9-11am

First Look

Continue up a nearby mountain pass to gain elevation, or stroll along a teal colored lake for your first look and a charming picnic. 

11-3pm

Hike, Kayak, explore

No matter how you spend the day, every corner you turn unveils another mesmerizing view.  Explore, relax, take your time and enjoy the treasures.

3-5pm

sunset vows

End the day with your commitment ceremony as the sun sets. Bust out the headlamps and stick around for star shots!

But why choose me as your Slovenia elopement photographer?

Because your experience is my #1 priority and elopements are so much more than pretty photos.

Real talk: every photographer you're looking at "takes pretty photos." You're looking for someone with that little something extra: knowledge. I know the Slovenian Alps, the trails, and how to take care of YOU. Hiring me means finding someone who's absolutely stoked about nature, experienced in the outdoors and dedicated to making your day absolutely kick ass.

Trouble narrowing down locations? I have a Slovenia location guide. Worried about crowds?
I know how to avoid them. Not sure where to go?
Easy peasy - I break down the options.

You need someone who knows the area, knows where to go and what to expect.
With me, those worries go away, no additional planner needed!




It felt like she stepped into our imagination and found EXACTLY what we envisioned. We’re so grateful we followed her recommendation to elope in Slovenia, as it truly exceeded our expectations!

hi, its me!

TRUST ME: I GET IT

I call BS on traditional weddings because the status quo didn't work for me either. I know marriage has a fingerprint. It's as unique as each couple. You define what marriage means to you...AND how to celebrate it.

I exist to empower couples, eliminate fear & create fun. I've been traveling and living abroad since 2013. I've built my life around exploring new places and telling those stories through photos.

What started as a love for travel and adventure has led me right here to you. I'd bet we have at least those things in common.

So, are we the dream team that's gonna take back your wedding day?

fILL OUT MY CONTACT FORM

From the moment we discovered her while searching for elopement options late one night, we were captivated. Her previous work in Slovenia and her energy was so compelling that we knew instantly that Mariah was the one to help bring our dream elopement to life. Our initial meeting with Mariah was incredibly smooth and reassuring. She provided thoughtful guides that helped us articulate our vision and priorities for the day. Her guidance made it easier to decide what mattered most to us and what we wouldn’t miss doing.  It felt like she stepped into our imagination and found EXACTLY what we envisioned. We’re so grateful we followed her recommendation as it truly exceeded our expectations!

Mariah was an absolute angel to have

One night, I couldn’t sleep and at 2am I was searching for photographers and came across Mariah’s website. It immediately stood out from the hundreds of websites that I was looking at. I felt like she completely understood me, what I wanted out of a photographer, what I wanted out of a wedding…and most of all, the photos were beautiful.
It was the wedding we wanted that everyone is jealous of. 
The wedding that everyone asks to see photos of.
The wedding that everyone wishes they had, but didn’t do because they are doing what their parents want them to do. We had a blast! 

I searched for elopement photographers for months across the US and Europe and I interviewed over 30. 

One of the most remarkable things about Mariah is her ability to blend into the background while simultaneously being in the right place at the right time to capture those candid, emotional moments. The result is a collection of photos that not only look visually stunning but also feel authentic and true to the essence of our elopement.
Beyond the technical excellence, what truly sets Mariah apart is the emotional depth of her work. Looking through our album, we are transported back to that magical day, feeling every emotion as if it were happening all over again. It's a testament to her ability to capture not just moments but the essence of our love and the beauty of the surroundings.


Mariah is the photographer you need

Elopements are scary, going against traditional ESPECIALLY in a foreign country with no understanding of the language. But believe me when I tell you that this was the once in a lifetime experience I’ve been waiting for and tops ANY wedding. Mariah is TRULY one of a kind. Trust me on this. This is her calling.  With Mariah, you’re not just hiring a photographer, you’re hiring someone that takes your vision to the highest quality to create a life long memory of the best wedding experiences. The dedication she has to researching the BEST and most BREATHTAKING views is by far more than ANY other photographer would ever go. I mean seriously!! How many photographers do you know that would climb a mountain not once but TWICE!

I can go on ALL day about how precious and ORIGINAL Mariah is!

Two days with Mariah was not just magical—it was like stepping into a fairy tale where the photographer is also your fairy godmother. First of all, the sneak peeks? STUNNING. Like, "blow-it-up-to-wall-size-and-show-it-off-to-everyone-you’ve-ever-met" stunning. Mariah’s skill with a camera is undeniable, but it’s her ability to capture those raw, real, tear-jerking emotions that takes her to a whole other level. But here’s the kicker: Mariah isn’t just talented—her soul is pure gold. I struggle with mental health, and the idea of having someone document our two-day elopement honestly had me in tears before it even started (thanks, insecurities). But five minutes after meeting her, all my fears evaporated faster than an ice cube in July. She made me feel comfortable, beautiful, and—most shockingly—like myself.

Mariah isn’t just talented—her soul is pure gold

frequently asked questions

I'VE GOT ANSWERS, NO MATTER WHAT THE FAQ HAPPENS

A good place to start is to ask yourselves what kind of experience you want to have. Most adventure based elopements require 3-4 hours of activity on top of the commitment ceremonies and traveling between locations. I recommend a full day for those who want getting ready, first look, one activity and one vow location. I recommend a multi day if you have activity ideas or additional locations you want outside of that.

Although it doesn't sound ideal, moody weather can make for some seriously beautiful photos, and clouds are actually wonderful for soft, even lighting. I live in these mountains, so I know how to read forecasts and prepare you for all conditions.

YES! And for so many reasons - one, trails and locations are almost ALWAYS quieter on weekdays. You can almost guarantee yourself more seclusion by choosing days like Tuesday or Wednesday.

Include it. Eloping doesn't mean giving up the important traditions that come with big weddings. Have a ring bearer, a first dance, anything you want! In our planning calls, I help you design your ceremony around those wishes.

What's stopping you? It ain't me! The wonderful thing about elopements is this: there are no rules! You get to decide what is most important to you, and what to do about it. For outdoor locations I recommend keeping groups under 8 people for logistics and sustainability reasons.

The short answer is yes. The honest answer is: it's complicated. The easiest thing is to complete the legal paperwork in your home country and have a meaningful vow and commitment ceremony in your elopement location. Most couples do this.

Not necessarily. Most of my favorite viewpoints are actually very close to the road or parking areas. What we do on your elopement day, whether hiking or otherwise, always depends on your physical abilities and preferences. I'm always down for physically challenging hikes, treks, climbs or rides, but also love more leisurely days.
