Above the Fog, an Elopement on Mount Tam

Maya and Theo wanted the ceremony above the fog line, which meant leaving the trailhead in the dark.

We shot one roll of Super 8 on the hike up and saved the second for the vows themselves, once the light broke over the ridge.

Elopements like this one are mostly about trust — trusting the weather, trusting the hike, trusting that four minutes of film will be enough to hold an entire morning.

It was.
