Elopement Locations Across Illinois & the Midwest
Illinois
Illinois offers a beautifully diverse backdrop for intimate elopements and micro-weddings. Dramatic canyon views, waterfalls, quiet prairies, and forested trails create a setting that feels intentional, relaxed, and deeply personal.
The Midwest is full of understated beauty and meaningful places to say your vows. Rolling bluffs, riverfront views, wooded paths, and open skies create a setting that feels grounded and timeless. Imagine exchanging vows along the Mississippi River, in a quiet state park, or beneath the soft glow of golden hour in the heart of the Midwest.

Do you want images that are authentic, vibrant, & emotive? Well you've come to the right place..
Hi, I’m Angelina. I’m an elopement photographer based in Illinois, capturing wedding days in a way that feels real, emotional, and true to the love you share. My photography style blends authentic storytelling, rich color, and natural moments so nothing ever feels forced or performative.
I serve couples across Illinois and the surrounding Midwest, with a heart and camera always ready for adventure. Courthouse ceremonies, golden-hour vow exchanges, and quiet forest elopements all deserve to be documented with care, intention, and a little hype along the way.
Meet Angelina.
