Welcome to ELOPE ACADEMY 🏔️

If you’re ready to grow beyond one income stream, this is your starting point.

Over the years, I’ve built coaching programs, retreats, content days, done-for-you launches, memberships, and digital systems - because scaling looks different depending on what you’re building.

Some photographers come to me to strengthen their elopement bookings. Others want to host profitable retreats. Some are ready to expand into education or build income that isn’t tied to their calendar.

This post is your quick field guide to how we can work together inside Elope Academy, based on what you’re building right now.

Swipe through, find the offer that fits, and comment the keyword on that slide - or DM me if you want help sorting it out.  And swipe to the end if you want some freebies 😉 by @elopeacademy

Enrollment is officially OPEN for The Intensive and Learn to Host! 🎉

Both programs are up to HALF OFF right now. This is the biggest discount I have ever offered on either one, and the biggest I ever plan to.

It’s also the very last time enrollment opens until summer 2027. After this round, the doors close for a while.

Here’s how to know which one is for you:

THE INTENSIVE is for you if you want to book more all-day adventure elopements in 2027 and build a business that fills your calendar with dream couples. We map out your whole marketing plan, your website copy, your pricing, your SEO, and your sales process together.

👉 Comment “INTENSIVE” and I’ll send you the details + pricing

LEARN TO HOST is for you if you want to host your own retreat or content day in 2027 and sell it out. We build your launch plan from idea to sold-out tickets, including your sales page, your marketing, your profitability plan, and your launch strategy.

👉 Comment “LEARN TO HOST” and I’ll send you the details + pricing

Both programs include bi-weekly live group coaching with me through the end of 2026, Slack support, homework reviews, guest expert workshops, and lifetime access to all of the materials. You are not buying a course and figuring it out alone. We build it together, in real time, with me in your corner.

Think about how fast January is going to get here. If you want your 2027 elopement season or your 2027 events planned out before it starts, this is the time to get going.

To get started, comment the name of the program that fits you, read through the details and pricing, and apply for your spot. If you’re not sure which one is the right fit, send me a DM and I’ll help you figure it out!

I can’t wait to coach some of you through the rest of this year. 💛 by @elopeacademy

ROUND TWO. GRAND TETON: JACKSON HOLE. 🤠

Okay, you guys have been asking me for MONTHS to bring on another Tetons retreat. The first one sold out within HOURS of opening. And ever since, my inbox has been full of “please tell me you’re doing this again.”

So... it’s happening. A second Grand Teton Retreat date set is officially live !!!

May 14-17, 2027 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Iconic elopement destination in the American West. Where refined luxury meets true western grit. This is the retreat where you get both.

Here’s what we’re doing: Saddling up and riding horses through the Tetons. Shooting inside Grand Teton National Park at some of the most iconic (yet hidden gem) spots in the park. A fully styled luxury elopement at the most iconic mountain ranch in Jackson Hole (spoiler: it’s also where we’re staying). Designing custom western hats. Ending a night outside the neon-lit Million Dollar Cowboy Bar.

You’re also walking away with a full portfolio, a business strategy, and everything you need to start booking western luxury elopements the second you land back home.

Here’s what you need to know: The waitlist is officially open! Getting on it means you get access to spots before anyone else, and if you sign up during our launch week (September 23-30), you’ll also score a spot at the bonus adventure shoot at one of my favorite secluded natural hot springs!

Comment “TETONS” and I’ll send you all the details, pricing, and the waitlist link. 👇

Applications officially open this Wednesday, September 23rd at 8am MDT!  Photos © Elope with Kasey Jo LLC, licensed stock imagery & provided by the event vendors. taken in Grand Teton National Park by @elopeacademy

Do I have anyone interested in creating a passive income offer this fall/winter, during your off-season? This could look like an online course, a guide or resource, a preset, digital templates... really anything that’s passive income!

I’m looking for a few interested people that I can coach throughout the month of November for a new program I’ve been working on. it’s all about creating, launching, and SELLING a passive income offer.

and FYI, you don’t need to have created any sort of product yet, we’ll make time for that during the program!

if this is you, just comment “PASSIVE INCOME” and I’ll DM you more info about this! 💛 by @elopeacademy

A little elopement inspiration from deep in the San Juan Mountains 🏔️🤍

For this styled elopement at Yankee Boy Basin, we hopped into a 4x4 truck in Ouray and made our way up into the mountains, stopping for waterfalls, winding mountain roads, and some seriously unreal views along the way.

If you’re dreaming up your own Ouray elopement, let this be your sign that your wedding day can look a little different! Yankee Boy Basin is one of those places that stunning views all around and is exactly why the San Juan Mountains are such an incredible place to elope. Throw on your wedding attire, grab a 4x4, head into the mountains, and let’s make an entire adventure out of it.⛰️✨💍

Okay, I want to get a little real with you for a second.

There are just a few spots left for the Alaska retreat, and I know some of you have been sitting with this. Not because you don’t want to come. Because something’s holding you back, maybe it’s finances, maybe it’s timing, maybe you’re just not sure if this is the right season for you to invest in yourself like this.

Twelve other girls just like you came to Alaska with me this month. Some of them were on the fence too. Some of them almost didn’t sign up. And they left with exactly the kind of Alaska elopement content and know-how they’d only ever dreamed of, real friendships they’re already planning trips around, and a level of confidence in their business that didn’t exist a month ago.

Swipe through to see what a few of them had to say. 🥹

I hope this is the year you say yes to yourself. I’d be so honored to have you there.

If you’re on the fence, send me a DM. Let’s talk it through, together. 💛  And if you’re ready, comment “ALASKA” and I’ll send you the link to join us! taken in Alaska by @elopeacademy

ALASKA IS BACK! 🏔️🚁 
You guys have asked me to bring this retreat back more times than I can count, and I’m so excited to say: it’s happening. The Alaska Retreat is officially live for September 2027. 
September 6-9, 2027 in Seward, Alaska. One of the most jaw-dropping elopement destinations on the entire planet. Wild, remote, and completely unforgettable, this is the retreat where every day feels like a bucket-list moment. 
Here’s what we’re doing: Photographing a real seaplane elopement on a remote alpine lake. A fully styled luxury intimate wedding at Salted Roots A-Frame Cabins, ceremony on a private black sand beach, candlelit dinner in the woods, s’mores by the campfire under string lights. A welcome dinner at the Flamingo Lounge to kick things off right. And for anyone who wants to go even further, an optional add-on: helicoptering out to Knik Glacier, landing beside the blue glacier pools, cold-plunging and pack-rafting in one of the most remote landscapes you’ll ever photograph.

You’re also walking away with a full portfolio, a business strategy inside The Elope Academy Retreat Course, a full library of Alaska Elopement Resources and everything you need to start booking & planning Alaska elopements the second you land back home.

Here’s what you need to know: this retreat launches this Wednesday, August 26th at 8am MT. Sign up on launch day and you’ll get a full month of group coaching with me, completely free!!

Comment “ALASKA” and I’ll send you all the details & pricing! 👇
