Happy anniversary, Alicia & Ajani! ♥️

I still love looking back on your beautiful day in Portugal. You got married in the most magical setting and made the most of every moment — exploring Sintra and sailing into the sunset on a beautiful sailboat.
We were blessed with the most incredible late-summer sunshine, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Wandering through Sintra’s whimsical parks, discovering beautiful little corners, and turning them into everlasting elopement memories.
A day full of sunshine, adventure, and so much love

Happy anniversary ♥️♥️♥️

Gosh, Caitlin and Greg’s elopement was so whimsical. The weather gods definitely weren’t on our side when we were hoping for blue skies, sunshine, and a view.

We spent a beautiful day in Annecy, and for the vow exchange, we initially had the idea of driving up into the mountains for sunset. Well, life had another idea for us — and Caitlin and Greg went completely with the flow.

Sometimes I still feel the anxiety from my time as a big wedding photographer, when rain meant a little (or a big) disaster. I still can’t wrap my head around how easygoing my couples are now when it comes to the weather, or how easily you can adapt your plans to your mood when eloping. 😍

I just love everything about it. ♥️

Happy Anniversary
Milan & Austin ♥️

Gosh, already two years ago…

Two years since these two chose to begin their forever in one of the most beautiful places imaginable — the mountains of Annecy, France.

Their wedding day was such a beautiful reflection of what marriage is all about: having the quiet, intimate moments where it’s just the two of you, while also being surrounded by the people who have loved and supported you along the way.

They started their morning alone, exchanging their vows in the mountains, taking in those precious moments together before the celebrations began. And then, by noon, their closest family and friends had gathered — many of them traveling all the way from America to France just to celebrate their love.

There was something so incredibly special about watching these two worlds come together. The intimacy of their vows, the laughter and happy tears shared with their loved ones, celebrating on the boat, and all those little moments in between.

A day filled with so much love, warmth, and emotion — and one that still feels just as magical two years later.

Happy Anniversary, you two. May you always hold onto that feeling of choosing each other, again and again. ♥️

There’s something about eloping in Lisbon that makes the whole day feel slower.

I love starting early in the city — when the streets are still quiet, the light is beautiful and there’s time to wander, have coffee and simply enjoy being together.

And then, when Lisbon starts getting busy, we leave.

Within a short drive, the city disappears and the landscape opens up. Cliffs, ocean, wind and space.

That’s one of my favourite things about Lisbon for an elopement: you get both.

The beauty and energy of the city, followed by the freedom and quiet of nature.

No rushing. No trying to fit everything into one perfectly planned day.

Just a day that unfolds naturally — and feels like you.

Photos from Lindsey + Chris’ unforgettable Portugal elopement 🤍

When Lindsey and Chris first reached out, I had a feeling this one would be special.

As fate would have it, they chose April for their elopement month — one of the most magical times of year in Portugal. The countryside is lush, the light is soft, and every corner feels alive. It also happened to be the month my baby was due, so I knew from the very beginning that I wouldn’t be the one behind the camera on their day.

But I also knew exactly who I wanted to trust with it.

Laura immediately came to mind. I had followed her work for years and always admired the way she connects with couples — gently, intentionally, and with so much heart. The way she photographs love feels deeply familiar to my own approach, so asking her felt like the easiest decision.

When I shared the idea with Lindsey and Chris, they embraced it wholeheartedly.

And what a beautiful day it turned out to be.

We crafted an experience that felt true to them from start to finish — a slow morning wandering through the fairytale forests of Sintra, windswept moments by the ocean, w**e among the vineyards, and finally sailing from Cascais toward Lisbon as the sun began to dip lower in the sky.

As I sorted through the photographs afterward, I could feel the joy, the connection, and the ease that the three of them shared throughout the day. Every image tells a piece of their story.

Seeing it all come together filled my heart with so much gratitude. Sometimes things don’t unfold exactly as planned, but they end up exactly as they’re meant to.

Lindsey + Chris, thank you for trusting us with your adventure. 🤍

Small Wedding in Portugal • Sintra & Ericeira ✨🇵🇹

Please take me back already 🥹
Happy anniversary to these two funny, loving humans who brought all their favorite people to Portugal for the dreamiest intimate wedding celebration.

From slow moments together, to quality time with family before getting ready, every part of the day felt so relaxed and meaningful. Their ceremony took place in the magical garden of their Airbnb in Sintra — which once was a monastery!

Followed by an amazing dinner in Ericeira at .ericeira

As a German I truly enjoy the speeches that Americans can give. It’s such a difference to German weddings ( not all but many ) aren’t very good at giving speeches a bit stiff I would say 🫠

Portugal weddings just hit different
Thinking about an elopement or small wedding in Portugal? Sintra and Ericeira are pure magic for destination weddings, intimate ceremonies, and unforgettable wedding weekends.

Happy anniversary to Lauren & Jess!
From cozy morning moments to an unforgettable winter sports elopement in Chamonix, France, you two turned adventure into your love story. 🏔️

These two winter sport lovers started the day getting ready together with close friends, hit the iconic cable car up Aiguille du Midi for jaw-dropping alpine views, then skied and snowboarded down pristine slopes before saying their vows surrounded by snow-capped peaks.
With friends crafting their ceremony arch, heartfelt speeches, ch*****ne popped with skis, a surprise homemade cake, and epic après-ski celebrations at La Folie Douce, this was truly the ultimate snow elopement adventure.

Here’s to love on the mountain tops, intimate vows, sunny snowy skies, and many more winters together.
