Switzerland Elopement Photographer

You’re dreaming of escaping the rush, the expectations, and the whirlwind of traditional weddings. You’d rather breathe, soak it all in, and let your love be you—unfiltered, beautifully unhurried.

That’s exactly why I’ve reimagined my elopement offerings. The packages I book most often now come with no time limits—so we can wander, explore, sip hot chocolate in a snowy meadow, sit quietly by your favorite mountain lake, and truly be present for your day. I want to gift you with time and space—not to capture a schedule, but to capture your truest selves.


1. Choose Your Wild & Wonderful Place

Switzerland spills over with romantic backdrops:

  • Lauterbrunnen Valley: Imagine 72 waterfalls cascading into fairytale alpine meadows. It’s pure magic.

  • Oeschinensee: one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen, astonishing blue lake.

  • Seealpsee or Bachalpsee: Quiet alpine lakes framed by peaks and mirrored skies—serene and otherworldly.

  • Lavaux Vineyards: UNESCO-listed terraces bathed in golden light by Lake Geneva—intimate, elegant, endlessly charming.

  • Zermatt & Matterhorn: For that epic, cinematic moment—say "I do" with the iconic peak watching over you.

No matter the mood—grand alpine, lakeside quiet, vineyard romance—Switzerland delivers.

2. Timing, Seasons & Logistics

Every season lends its own magic:

  • Spring brings blooms and gently thawed landscapes—just be aware some lifts may still be paused.

  • Summer invites sunshine and alpine adventures, with the best weather—though popular spots can get busy.

  • Fall offers cozy fog and autumn hues—intimate and often under the radar.

  • Winter blankets everything in snow—ideal for frosty ceremonies, plus maybe a spa or toboggan celebration afterward.

Planning 2–4 months ahead gives us room to dream big—and secure the best location and vendors. But hey, if spontaneity is your vibe, let's still talk!

3. The Legal Bits (the simple stuff)

For most symbolic outdoor ceremonies, you won’t need permits—unless we’re talking archways or altar-sized setups on a public trail. I’ll walk you through any logistics, no sweat.

4. Do Your Own Version of Romance

This is your day. Want to light a fire and toast marshmallows beneath alpine stars? Let's do it. Dreaming of a cozy spa evening to wind down? I know just the place. Fancy a private hover over vineyards or a boat ride on a turquoise lake? The possibilities are endless.

5. Keep the Day Free—Really Free

Here’s the part I’m most proud of: no stopwatch, no schedule. We’ll follow the light, the atmosphere, the feeling. Because the best photos come from real moments—your laughter, your quiet glances, the way the wind wraps around you both. I want you to live these moments, not simply pose through them.

A Final Whisper

When you elope, it’s not just a wedding—it’s a promise wrapped in a place that whispers 'always.' And Switzerland, with her lakes, peaks, castles, and vineyards, just gets that.

Let’s design a day that's unrushed, magical, and unmistakably you. Would you like help picking the best season or crafting a day that doesn’t rush you into a single moment—but lets them all breathe?

Do you have any questions? Let’s organize a videocall to discuss all the details!
