About Karen Agurto Photography

Karen Agurto Photography

Photographer

I’m Karen, your expert California elopement photographer. I'm passionate about making sure couples feel seen and heard when it comes to their wedding day. No elopement is too "out-of-the-ordinary" nor too out of reach. I believe in the power of eloping so much I did it myself. Away from crowds, enveloped in nature, against a badass view, with the people I feel most comfortable with. I'm with you every step of the way. By providing personalized location lists, planning resources, vendor recommendations, permits, and so much more we bring your dream wedding to life.

This elopement experience is for those who find comfort in nature, seek shared adventures together, and want to exchange their vows against a breathtaking view. How you get married matters and you deserve to live the adventure you're dreaming up. Wedding photos are important, but more than that - your experience is priority. Let's honor you the way you want to be celebrated and the way that best reflects your love.

    Special Photographer

    Karen’s work is incredible! We watched the slideshow tonight with our daughter and it was perfect for story telling. Karen delivers more than just a file of photos, she delivers a story. With Karen’s well balanced guidance, energy, and peacefulness My husband and I were able to submerge ourselves in the present moment and truly feel like it was just the two of us. Thank you Karen for such a wonderful experience!

Typically, couples book me anywhere from 2 months to a year before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.
No, I focus on photography only, so you can get the best wedding pictures possible.
Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 12 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive sneek peeks!
No, I specialize in elopements and small weddings with 10 guests only.
I photograph weddings with up to approximately 10 guests. If you anticipate having more, please let me know and we can chat.
I embrace a cloudy day, but if the weather is unsafe (lightning, storms, high winds on a mountain, etc.) then we will switch to our backup plan or reschedule.
Not at all. Hiking doesn’t even have to be part of your experience! I will work closely with you to pick a location you two feel most comfortable getting to. This adventure is yours to create.
All of my packages include travel fees so there are zero hidden fees.
I do not. I don’t believe in rushed elopements. Your elopement isn’t just about checking a box or squeezing a few photos into a tight window—it’s about truly experiencing the moment, soaking in your surroundings, and celebrating your love in a way that feels real and meaningful. I specialize in adventure elopements that allow you to slow down, be present, and create a day that feels like you. Whether it’s hiking to a secluded overlook, exploring the coastline, or sharing a quiet meal under the stars, these moments deserve time to unfold naturally.
