MAKING elopements INTO EPIC CAMPFIRE STORIES
As your adventure elopement photographers-slash-guides, we’re here to answer all those questions. We’ll turn the adventure wedding of your dreams into reality—and document every moment with stunning photos.
But when it comes to figuring out the where, when, and how of an outdoor adventure wedding, you’re not sure where to start.

Grab your hiking boots (we’ll bring the trail mix). the great outdoors awaits!
You're not that into the idea of a "traditional"wedding with tons of guests. Maybe you’re not keen on being in the spotlight all day, or the thought of a huge reception in a hotel ballroom exhausts you.
Instead, you catch yourself dreaming about something more relaxed, more intimate—just the two of you, or maybe a small group of your best people—in a lush forest, or at a mountain overlook, or in the high desert at sunset.
Now that you’re planning your adventure wedding, you’ve realized something:
What's it like to work with us?
— Katie & Cameron
“Our experience with Mollie and her team was nothing short of magical.”

our trail master, fearless leader, and chocolate chip cookie queen
How to pack a wedding dress so it doesn’t wrinkle during a 5-mile hike
Which trails make for the most dramatic photos (and at what time of day)
How to come up with a plan B, C, and even D in case Mother Nature isn’t feeling it
How to get just about anyone to feel relaxed in front of the camera
Exactly how much we can fit into your wedding day without overdoing it
- Drew: My husband, co-worker, and co-adventurer!
- Scout: Our Bernese Mountain Dog (and BtP's unofficial mascot!) Keep an eye out for her in the background of our Zoom calls.
- Maple: Our dependable—and cozy—camper van!
- Snacks!: Especially granola bars, apples, Hippeas and a classic PB&J.
- Community: Campfires, margaritas and queso, gardening, hanging with my people, and the Pacific Northwest.
here are a few of my everyday essentials:
Since getting started in 2018, I’ve hiked thousands of miles to photograph more than 100 adventure elopements in my rugged home base (Washington), my tropical home-away-from-home (Kauai), and elsewhere (hi, Oregon!).
Hey, I’m Mollie adams, founder and photographer-in-chief of Between the Pine.
— james & jessica
“She feels more like a friend than a photographer.”
As Seen on:
I’ve also taken thousands of photos...
...shared hundreds of homemade chocolate-chip cookies (yup, it’s a thing), gotten more rave reviews than I can count. I've even won awards like Junebug's Best Elopement for 2019
WANT TO MEET THEM?
then, in 2022, i added three seriously incredible photographers to the team...
