About Couple o' Mittens Photography

Couple o' Mittens Photography

Adventure Elopement Photographer | Husband & Wife Team

Hey there! We’re Shannon and Devin, the husband-and-wife team behind Couple o’ Mittens! We specialize in adventure elopements and intimate weddings across Michigan for couples who want a day that feels meaningful, relaxed, and surrounded by beautiful landscapes. Outside of photography, we spend a lot of time exploring deep into the backcountry in our home state and beyond (AK, WA, WY, CA, TN, etc) —hiking trails, scouting scenic overlooks, and discovering quiet places along the Great Lakes. That experience allows us to help couples find incredible locations and create a wedding day that feels natural, personal, and unforgettable.

We're more than just photographers. We're your built-in adventure crew and planners dedicated to making your vision come to life. Because we spend so much time exploring Michigan’s landscapes ourselves, we’re able to help couples discover incredible locations, plan around the best lighting, and design an elopement day that feels relaxed, adventurous, and uniquely theirs.

    Winter Engagement Session

    Couple o' Mittens Photography was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. There was never any pressure, more like a guiding hand. They made us feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process and were happy to provide a variety of locations and styling recommendations for our shoot. There was no awkward posing, just natural, candid photos that truly reflected our personalities. They captured several special moments, including some beautiful shots during the twilight hours. We were thrilled with the quick turnaround time and variety of photos they provided, giving us wonderful memories to cherish.

We photograph elopements and intimate weddings throughout Michigan, including the Upper Peninsula, Northern Michigan, Sleeping Bear Dunes, Pictured Rocks, West Michigan and Mackinac Island. We’re also available for destination adventure elopements across the United States.
We recommend booking as soon as possible, especially for popular seasons like summer and fall, as popular dates fill up fast. That said, we occasionally have last-minute availability, so it’s always worth reaching out even if your elopement is coming up soon.

The number of images depends on the length of coverage, but most couples receive 150–300 fully edited high-resolution images for shorter elopements, and more for longer coverage. Every image is carefully edited to match our natural, cinematic style.
Your images are delivered through a private online gallery where you can download high-resolution photos, share them with friends and family, and order professional-quality prints.
