Downtown Elopement

There’s something effortlessly romantic about keeping things simple —

And that’s exactly what this couple did for their downtown elopement. Inspired by the nostalgic charm of vintage film, Jila and Joseph embraced the timeless beauty of Tallahassee’s historic architecture as their backdrop. With the red-brick facades and marble columns, every moment felt cinematic.

Their classic attire—a suit and an elegant, understated dress—perfectly complemented the old-world charm, creating the feeling of stepping back into another era.

They strolled hand-in-hand through downtown streets lined with history and character. From the ornate details of the capitol building to the quiet corners of hidden alleyways, we worked together to create that dreamy, old-soul energy they envisioned.

Every moment felt sweet, simple, and perfectly them. Their wedding day wasn’t about big crowds or fancy details—it was about love, nostalgia, and the kind of romance that never goes out of style.

Jila + Joseph’s complete wedding gallery was refined using my “Old Money” Lightroom Preset Pack.

Drawing inspiration from luxury editorials and timeless film palettes, these presets create soft contrast and perfectly balanced warmth, delivering a look that is effortless, sophisticated, and undeniably elevated.
