"We're so lucky Philippe was there to capture our elopement. He is incredibly talented and a truly special person. We felt so comfortable throughout the day—he made us laugh so much, picked the best locations, and was very thoughtful with his directions. The nearly 400 (!!!) pictures we received are stunning. We are incredibly grateful and highly recommend him".

I 100% recommend Philippe as a wedding photographer. First of all he is super friendly. He made us feel super comfortable and was very accommodating with the rain. Second, he knew exactly what to do. He knew exactly what poses worked and helped you understand them. Lastly, his photos just turned out brilliant”.

FAQS

How much does an elopement shoot cost?

Elopement packages start at €1,850 for our 3 hour package. Longer coverage is of course available.

Looking for something different - How open/flexible are you to switch things up ?

We provide a tailored questionnaire as part of the booking process. This allows us to understand your unique needs and preferences, so we can create a personalized experience that reflects you both.

Do we need to meet before our wedding day to discuss what we are looking for?

Distance shouldn't stop you from having the wedding of your dreams! We understand that many of our clients come from abroad, making it difficult to meet in person before the big day. But don't worry, we're here to help you every step of the way. Whether it's over Zoom, email, or your preferred method, we'll work with you to create the perfect wedding experience.
