Once you’ve finalized the locations for your elopement, we will guide you through the process of obtaining any necessary permits for your ceremony or portrait spots. We’ll ensure you have all the information you need, making it a smooth and stress-free experience.
We’ll collaborate with you on a detailed timeline that ensures you hit all your desired spots at the perfect times for the best lighting and atmosphere. The goal? To make sure you soak in every moment without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
On your wedding day, our approach balances guiding you for beautiful poses with capturing those spontaneous, genuine moments that make your celebration uniquely yours. You’ll feel free to be yourselves, lost in each other while we capture the story of your unforgettable day.
Within just 7 days of your elopement, we’ll send you a high-resolution sneak peek of your images to share with family and friends. The rest of your carefully edited gallery will be delivered within only 4 weeks, allowing you to relive those cherished moments.

STEP-BY-STEP, HERE’S WHAT TO EXPECT
“The experience couldn’t have been”
The Rocker in Love team seems like a part of our family. My sister first discovered them. They did such a good job that two of my cousins and one of my second-cousins used them. It was really one of the easiest choices we needed to make. We’ve seen Rocker-in-Love in action, we’ve seen the high-quality work they produce, and we knew they’d be the only choice for our wedding. The experience couldn’t have been better. When working with the Rocker team you’re working with honest, great-hearted people. They’re creative, they’re professional, but they do such a great job of making you feel comfortable and relaxed.
-LAUREN & JARED
“Grasi has helped me with the timeline and it was so helpful to me as I felt like I was planning by myself for the majority of the time.”
“Felt comfortable“
We have looked through all of our photos from the love session and the wedding and are absolutely amazed. The amount of professionalism and skill shown not only by Dani and Grasi but by their son Otto as well shines through in their photography. As two people that characterize ourselves as awkward in front of a camera, we felt comfortable and cared for by Rocker in Love.
On the day of the wedding, Grasi and Dani made it a point to keep things calm and low-pressure, to the point where there are pictures we received we don’t remember them being there to take! They blended in and captured genuine memories rather than just photos from the day. We recommend Grasi and Dani to anyone looking for artistic, unique photos to remember the best day of their life!
-LIZA + DREW
Not at all! It’s the day you are committing to each other. You’ll be celebrating this day every year, over and over, renewing your vows – till you are old and gray.
Think of it as those moments, big and small, all mixed up with emotions that you know in advance you will never want to forget.
We totally get it – the idea of having someone follow you around with a camera for hours can seem a bit much, especially when you just want to enjoy your day. But that’s not how we roll.
When you have us as your photographers, you’re not signing up for an all-day photoshoot; you’re inviting us to be part of your day! Imagine waking up in your beautiful Airbnb, excited and surrounded by all those special things you planned and envision – your stunning dress, meaningful details, and those vow books. We’ll be there to capture all of those beautiful moments without getting in your way.
Then comes the excitement of your first look! We’ll photograph that moment of joy and surprise when you see each other for the first time, capturing those genuine emotions you’ll cherish forever.
Your ceremony will be set against the breathtaking Joshua Tree landscape, filled with love and warmth. And when that golden hour hits, we can follow you on a stroll through those iconic rock formations, capturing those gorgeous couple portraits that blend candid moments with an artistic flair. Think warm tones and a style that feels both natural and elegant—exactly what you’ve been dreaming of!
As the day unfolds, you can kick back and enjoy some drinks, indulge in dessert, and maybe even have a little first dance under the stars – all while we document those sweet, intimate moments as they happen.
This is all about celebrating your love story authentically, not feeling like a centerpiece in a photoshoot. We’re here to help you create memories you’ll treasure.
Doesn’t that sound like a much better way to spend your day? We think so too!
