As a Dolomites elopement photographer, born, raised and living in the Dolomites, I offer you:

Privacy & space to breathe — locations where you’re on your own, not surrounded by strangers.

Clarity & zero guesswork — logistics, weather strategies, and timing done for you.

Local expertise — So you get safety and access to places that Google doesn’t take you. Inspired by your own vision.

Real sense of place — culture, stories, food… you get the Dolomites, not just the postcard.

Fun & chill vibes — show up as you are, be your silly selves, let’s do what feels right to you. You get my dad jokes, puns and iron-knees for free.

No Regrets.
No Compromises.

THE EXPERIENCE

Ellen over delivers on her photography trade and that’s why you originally hire her. But the added bag of tricks… make the whole process and elopement day so much more special.

What I do, and who I am as a Dolomites elopement photographer,
in their words

SABRINA & RICHIE

Ellen is unapologetically herself, and that is what we most appreciated about her.
She makes everyone feel comfortable.
We appreciated how organised she was in advance of our special day, always available for calls to put our plan together

MARIA & BEN

Ellen was the most incredible photographer that I am also proud and happy to call a friend. She made the day super stress free and everything went off seamlessly. She knows all the special locations that aren’t super touristy.

ELEONORE & TIM

Ellen came to the slopes with us after the wedding and we took fantastic photos there, hats off to that because it’s not easy. Ellen definitely gets a clear recommendation from us for her humorous and professional manner.
