Elopement Photography & Planning in Madeira

Have a meaningful wedding in nature - free from stress, judgement and rules.

Based in Germany - Available europe-wide

The big wedding just doesn't feel right, huh?

Did you ever feel out of place because the thought of having a ball room wedding with 100+ guests doesn't excite you AT ALL?

I totally get it!

You feel under pressure to meet all expectations and can't truly switch off and enjoy yourself

Being the center of attention for a whole day and speaking in front of a crowd makes you feel panicky and anxious

Weddings cost a fortune and planning them quickly turns into a stressful second job

You actually feel closest to your partner and your feelings in quiet moments together

YOU DESERVE A WEDDING THAT truly lights you up

Imagine: Eloping in Madeiras nature instead

It's your Elopement day and you're excited - not stressed.

You get to celebrate your wedding in a way that is truly meaningful to you, exploring misty laurel forests, vast mountain ranges, black sand beaches, wild forests and waterfalls.

No distractions, no pressure or rules to follow - just the soothing sounds of nature and the presence of your partner as you say your vows.

You feel free to be you and totally present in this moment and your emotions.

You feel like everything is falling into place for you.

"Storytelling at its best!"

Sina immediately made us feel as if we had known each other forever and we had such a great time with her. A photographer with a lot of talent and an eye for the extraordinary. The photos simply left us speechless.

Sina captured our emotions, so many details and the atmosphere so perfectly that we couldn't believe it. One photo is more beautiful than the next, but what impressed us most about them is that they look even more beautiful in their entirety and tell our story - storytelling at its best!
