I cannot rave enough about our elopement experience with Brooke & her husband Conagher. I miraculously stumbled upon Primose Wedding & Adventure Photography’s page on Facebook while searching for an elopement photographer for Big Bend National Park. After viewing her page and looking at her work, I just had a really good feeling. I met Brooke via Zoom and she was the most down to earth and helpful person that we desperately needed in that time ... We genuinely had fun working with them and they made our elopement weekend so special. I truly feel like we gained new friends through this experience. If you’re on the fence about a photographer, elopement or not, Primrose Wedding & Adventure Photography is the way to go!!!

My husband and I have spent the majority of our 20s on the road. I honestly have lost track of how many road trips we've been on. Normally we just set up the tripod and maybe get one good pic from our trips. But now thanks to Brooke- Primrose Wedding Photography we have photos capturing our adventurous lifestyle 😭🫶✨️ We love Big Bend and Brooke was so amazing. From her personality and silliness to scouting our location. She even sent the most beautiful sneak peeks. The photos are beautiful and I'm on cloud 9! If I could do it over again with her, I absolutely would!!

I was lucky enough to be able to book a session with Brooke while she was visiting Colorado and the results are phenomenal.
I can be very picky when it comes to pictures, so to say Brooke was GREAT means a lot to me.
She went above and beyond, even scouted location at the National Park for us before hand.
She was easy to work with, flexible, and dependable.
The pictures are gorgeous, the editing is lovely and everyone has complimented it.
I highly recommend this photographer.
