And let it stay yours! Unique and special to you, stress free and relaxed, Intimate and meaningful and perhaps adventurous or just simply calm and private.
Perhaps you don’t like to be the center of attention, perhaps you don’t want to invite certain people, perhaps you want to spend money rather on an adventure than on fancy china, or perhaps you just simply want more privacy when you promise the rest of your life to your love
If you need help to plan a stress-free day that totally fits you and what you want out of your day, or perhaps you just simply need me to document your perfect day.
WEDDING IDEAS:
You planned your wedding day JUST how you want it to be. What if it was for noone else but you…
It’s the night before your wedding, the last drop of anxiety is taking over, the obligations that come with all the preparations, on top of that you’re not sure if your whole family there will cause too much drama, distracted with these insignificant burdens. Stressed last minute about who to invite or not, just for the sake of not disappointing others, was it a good idea to invite my X ? Should I have invited my boss?
As if this wasn’t enough all the investment that has gone into the wedding, leaves you with the pressure of everything having to look perfect, not to forget the post-wedding financial blues. The wedding day comes and everything is planned out by second, leaving no space to truly enjoy each moment. You start by taking the photos in a superficial setting with bright lights shining directly at you, being forced to smile, turn right and left, whilst feeling awkward and uncomfortable.
The party starts and you find yourself simply worrying about entertaining your guests. Feeling guilty realizing you haven’t managed to spend any intentional moment with the one person who matters in all of this. The moment comes to say your vows and you’re so overwhelmed that you don’t even remember. All of this leaving you longing for the honeymoon to have the true love experience…
And the worst part is when your kids will ask you few years later about your wedding day you won’t be able to recall much of it….
Then it hits you, you realize none of these wedding traditions are truly yours. They have been strategically formulated by the wedding industry to convince you that you need to spend to be happy, but let me tell you, true happiness is free from all the bells and whistles and A LOT simpler than this.
The sad truth is many people feel relieved once all of this is over. Which doesn’t surprise me; I went through a biggish wedding myself, and although my day was awesome in many ways, I would have done several things differently.
You have the permission to be selfish on your wedding day… let me introduce you to another type of wedding which is simply about you as a couple. Nobody else, nothing else. No random work colleagues, No controlling mothers. No cheesy table decorations. Just about you.
Forget posing and the stress of “looking good on the pictures”.
My goal ist to capturing genuine emotions from the adventure that you create together.
A memory for a lifetime.
Let’s rewind to the night before your wedding, You feel relaxed and excited to spend the first day of the rest of your life together with no distractions, simply each other. You haven’t wasted anytime planning unnecessary things, instead staying true to the simplicity of being together.
You choose a special place surrounded by nature, waking up cuddling in front of a campfire, savouring a delicious homemade breakfast with the scent of baked bread, fruity jams blended with wild grass and pine trees. You are in control of how YOU are spending your day with an activity you both love in an unforgettable landscape. Hiking with your dog and swimming in a wild waterfall, hearing the sound of the birds singing, celebrating your love, and the water from the rivers flowing endlessly as a symbol of you’re the life that is to come. Being truly present in every moment, finding the magic in the simplicity of nature accompanying you on this adventure of love.
Then its time for the pictures and you hardly don’t even notice the photographer, it’s simply you enjoying and being you whilst all of this is being documented in the most subtle natural manner, true to your memories. The moment comes to say your vows and you are able to stop, look each-other deeply in the eyes and be grateful, with a true moment of silence to honour your love, as a precious kept secret to each other, free from external validation. Feeling the wind gracefully caressing your faces, as a sign that you can now savor the enchantment of the first kiss as husband and wife.
Looking back, your children will brag to their friends about how cool their parents were to have gotten married in an unexpected location, prioritising their love above all, no matter what was expected of them.

WEDDING IDEAS:
Are you an adventurer? Then perhaps a princess wedding is not for you? Perhaps you want to spend your money on an adventure instead?
Wedding ideas:
You enjoy a calm ceremony in the Town hall, then you stroll down the cobblestone streets together…
Perhaps you feed the birds, perhaps you take a boat tour and a stroll along the lake. Perhaps you have dinner in the palace? Or simply a picnic tète-a-tète up the hill in the forrest or in your own garden? Only imagination sets the limits to a calmer wedding day.

” Thanks x1000000000 Malin for such great work, our dreams for the photos are true thanks to you!!!!.
It is a pleasure to be in contact with you, before and after our big day. IT IS REMARKABLE how easy was to let you know by email what we liked and what we didn’t like in photos before the wedding, you have picked it up all perfectly.
I must say that you will be a treasure as a photographer for anyone on any special day. Even more for any super busy couple doing the arrangements for big weddings (but I hope you not to have a bridezilla as a customer hahaha LOL).
Your kindness, friendliness and easy going personality is definitely a plus, and on my experience….not all photographers count with all these qualities.
We wish you do the best and we remain in touch!
ROCCIO & YAN
I will get up at 3 just to capture your moments at sunrise, climb a mountain, sail an ocean, ski down just about any slope. Just to make sure that you spend the day just as YOU are dreaming about!
As a true lover of the outdoors, I can hike any mountain, climb, ski, go on a boat, sleep in a tent and will do it all for you, get up at three in the morning for an amazing sunrise, all to assure your vision comes to life. I seek to inspire and encourage the adventurous spirit within each couple by guiding you along this elopement journey assuring this alternative way of getting married, relaxed and intimate, can indeed by a reality, helping craft YOUR dream wedding day.
I aim to make your experience as personalized as possible, providing custom guidance, documenting your invaluable memories to be truly spontaneous, by creating a unique story through images capturing your emotions in their purest form. My duty is to assure you that a few years later when you are flickering through the pages of your wedding album with your future children the photographs captured, will embed the magic to instantly transport you back to that day where it all began.
An elopement is simply a small, intimate wedding that is truly about the couple, free from any traditional expectation of a classic wedding. It can be only the couple or just the nearest family or friends.
The location can be just anywhere, perhaps a place that means a lot go you, where you walk your dog every day, in a dream destination, in your backyard, on a roof top, on a beach, on a boat, on a mountain, in a forrest, in a hot air ballon…
Simply where you want it to be.
The wedding can be adventurous and/or very special but it can also be super simple. What really means something is that you do it JUST FOR YOU and that you truly enjoy every single second of the day.
Some people think that people who elope don’t think that the wedding is important and that they just want to do the civil wedding and a couple of of portrait photos. But I don’t think so! Your day is JUST AS IMPORTANT! Just ask yourself the question:
– How do I want to remember my wedding day in 20 years?
MY OFFER
Elopements is not a quick fix with a photoshoot to get some nice photos, an elopement is as important as a big wedding. The whole story of your day deserves to be told! An elopement is still a wedding, not a photoshoot to get instagram photos.
Just because your wedding day has less guests, it shouldn’t be less photo coverage. Your wedding day should not be LESS! Simply just different – just exactly how you wish it to be. Not what your aunt wants it to be and not what your mother in law wants. It’s about YOU
