If someone were to ask us what one of the most epic things we’ve ever done is — documenting Emma + Sam’s elopement in Yosemite would make the list. Not just for the incredible views Yosemite is famous for or experiencing them for the first time, but for the fact that this journey was truly all encompassing of our careers as filmmakers and past-time adventurers.
As Emma and I tended to our sore feet at the bottom of the 4 mile trail to Glacier Point the immensity of the journey we had just accomplished began to sink in — I think our favorite part about the 24 miles we backpacked alongside Emma + Sam was how full-circle it all was. They embarked on this trip as engaged and as the miles kept on we heard of all the stories of their relationship leading up to this point, we saw their love expressed over shared MREs and groggy 2:45am hugs, and after sharing their vows which perfectly summarized each story and obvious commitment they have to each other, they hiked down as newlyweds.
Emma + Sam’s elopement film will hold a special place in our hearts and truly embodies this experience as a whole — for now, here is a peek into this amazing adventure ✨
