Welcome to the enchanting world of Dana and Kellen's intimate elopement at Todd Lake, in the heart of Bend, Oregon's Cascade lakes. Dana and Kellen's love story is one for the books - high school sweethearts who were drawn back together by the magnetism of their souls. They envisioned a simple and down-to-earth wedding, adorned with beautiful wildflowers and thoughtful details, such as Kellen's floral shirt and Dana's stunning blue boots.

On the day of their elopement, a wildfire created a golden haze across the meadow and lake, creating an ethereal atmosphere for the couple's intimate ceremony. Kellen's brother officiated the wedding, with only close family in attendance, while remnants of Mount Bachelor and Broken Top served as a breathtaking backdrop for the event. The couple chose to marry on Dana's grandma's birthday as a tribute to her love.

As a wedding photographer, I was honored to capture the magic of this couple's special day. Every moment was filled with love and laughter, and the natural beauty of Todd Lake provided the perfect ambiance for this intimate celebration of love. Join me in reliving the unforgettable moments of Dana and Kellen's elopement, and experience the pure magic of their romantic love story.
