Cait and Will Pippin Hill Elopement

The day Cait contacted me about her and Will’s wedding plans, I thought it was too good to be true. She explained that she and Will planned to invite their closest family and friends to an “engagement party” and then surprise them with the news that it was actually their wedding day…and I started praying “oh please please please let this be as amazing as it sounds!!”

So, one dark as stormy night (literally), I met Will and Cait at a little coffee shop, where I immediately wanted to be their best friend – and photographer of course.

Thankfully they, too, felt we were a great match, and I started counting down the days until their surprise wedding.

Then, I get an email from Cait explaining that they had decided to have their surprise wedding at a different venue than originally planned, adding in that they hoped I was still willing to be their photographer now that it was going to be at…Pippin Hill . And my answer was ummmm, yes. Yes yes yes.

Now, I’ll add in here just what I said to Cait, which was this: for me, working with amazing couples holds precedence over amazing locations. Therefore, I would have followed them to any location they chose to get married, knowing that their sweet love would have been a joy to photograph anywhere.

However, getting the chance to work with such an amazing couple as Cait and Will AND have it be a surprise wedding held at a dream venue situated amidst the most incredible mountains? That was a true gift, one that I’ll forever be grateful to have been a part of.

So without further ado, here is the story of Cait and Will’s beautiful day:
