Living The Dream

How to design your dream life and let it define your career, instead of the other way around.

BY The hearnes

To live your dream, you have to know exactly what it is and how to bring that into your business.

One of our most commonly asked questions is – how did we do it? How did we go from our little photo business based in Texas to specializing in adventure elopements, bringing couples out to the most incredible places we've ever seen, giving them the best adventures of their lives and living… the dream?

The truth is, we never planned this to be what it is now, we just took the next step. We have always been intentional about making sure our life is as full as it can be, and when it wasn't, we figured out what to change. It has taken us years to build this life – we've made mistakes, taken huge risks, and learned from our losses.

This course is not meant to teach you how to become us, it's meant to inspire you, to uncover the things that make your heart beat faster, and ultimately guide you to living a life you may have only dreamed of.

We're here to show you it's possible. We're here to teach you how.

When you offer something you are passionate about, something that makes you feel alive, it makes all the difference.

Do you ever feel like…

This course will inspire you to find your unique niche in the wedding industry, discover your own passions (beyond industry trends), help you market that passion in a successful way, and then guide you to transform your business to live your dream.

You are getting booked but your jobs are all over the place and you aren't really doing what you love?

Your life is starting to revolve around your work and not the other way around?

Your work is repetitive, un-inspiring, and creatively unfulfilling?

About the Educators

The Hearnes

Hey! We are Abbi and Callen Hearne and we are adventure elopement photographers who have created our dream lifestyle in tandem with our photography career with the simple goal of “more time in the places we love.”

After living on the road full time for over three years and photographing adventure elopements all over the western US, we have found that we are most inspired by the Southwest Desert and Alaska's mountainous glacial landscapes. We now live at home in Moab, Utah and spend about 4-5 months a year on the road in our camper, road tripping in the west and driving up to Alaska for a few months every summer.

We've intentionally kept our photography business small, with the goal being able to work with couples who are drawn to adventure and experiences over material things, who want an extremely personal elopement experience, and who prefer to trust the experts to create an incredible experience for them. We work with couples on every aspect of their day, from location planning to travel logistics, vendor connections and adventure suggestions, and of course, photography that truly captures the couple, their connection, their experience, and the landscape they've chosen to get married in.

The course was full of gold.

I was challenged to think outside the box.

The best thing I ever did was sign up for this course.

When I stumbled across The Hearns on instagram I fell in love with their vibe, their photography and how they were living this rad life full of adventure – it’s exactly what I saw for myself! When I found out that they were releasing their Living The Dream course it was a no brainer that I was signing up. Best thing I ever did because it inspired the hell out of me and made me realize that this crazy dream is totally possible.

I was really inspired to create a business to support my dreams and passions. The living the dream perspective is going to change the game for me as I start to re-evaluate the life I want to be living and how my photo business can fit into it! This is the perfect course for someone who is looking for ways to build a business without sacrificing their adventurous way of life. I came away from this course with knowledge on marketing, workflow, and client experience to aid me when I start to only market to two select locations that are on my new master plan.

Living The Dream was a crash course in teaching one how to actually live their life on their terms when it comes to building out a successful travel elopement photography business. What the Immersed team and the Hearnes have put together gives the viewer a front row seat to experiencing life on the road, while also learning from two of the best elopement photographers out there. If you are looking for a behind the scenes look at how one can structure their own dreams to live a wild adventure on their own terms, I highly recommend this course!
