Like the world slows down.
Like you're completely present, soaking in the beauty of the moment - and each other.
Like it’s just the two of you, on the edge of something incredible.
that’s exactly how it should feel.
“I can’t believe this is real.”
That’s what one of my couples whispered during their elopement, and honestly - it stuck with me, because.
"Emma was so so fantastic to work with!! My partner (now fiancé) arranged the whole (proposal) photo shoot with her. She was very well disguised and took stunning photos of our special moment! We are so so grateful to have this moment captured so beautifully."

"Emma was amazing at capturing our special (wedding) day and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful moments she captured for us! She made us both feel so at ease and comfortable, we really loved that!"
nikki & richie
"Emma was incredible to work with! We eloped in a country we’re unfamiliar with and she helped us organise locations perfectly. She was timely in responding and we got our gallery back so fast! Could not recommend her enough"

testimonials
Eloping is for the dreamers, the wild-hearted, the ones who aren’t afraid to do things their own way.
It’s for couples who crave connection, beauty, and meaning over tradition.
Who want to feel every second of their day - not rush through it.
It’s not about hiking for hours or ticking off adrenaline-filled checklists (unless you want to!).
It’s about crafting a day that feels like you - joyful, intentional, and unforgettable.

PORTFOLIO
That moment when you look at an image and think, “That’s so us.” The way your partner looks at you when they think no one’s watching. The belly laughs, quiet pauses, the real stuff. That’s the magic I’m always chasing.
Your story isn’t cookie-cutter. It’s layered and lived-in - and your photos should feel the same. You’ve already built something beautiful together, and when it comes to your photo session, you want more than staged smiles. You want to feel it all again, every time you look back. Not just what it looked like - but what it felt like.
You don’t just need a highlight reel, you need a time capsule. That’s what I do.
And it’s something we create - together.
Sound like what you’re after? Let’s tell your story in a way that feels exactly like you. 💫
More than pretty pictures – I capture what makes you undeniably you

We couldn't be more thrilled with the experience and the photos! Many people describing them as the most beautiful wedding photos they have ever seen and like something from a magazine! From the very beginning, she made us feel so at ease, and the entire session felt incredibly natural, no posing or awkwardness.
If you're looking for a photographer who can make you feel comfortable, create beautiful, candid moments, and deliver breathtaking images, we highly recommend Emma!
the entire session felt incredibly natural.

Planning our engagement shoot from abroad felt daunting at first, but working with Emma made everything effortless. She was incredibly responsive, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. When strong winds made our original location impossible, she arrived early to scout alternatives, ensuring we still had the perfect backdrop. Her adaptability, professionalism, and warm energy made us feel completely at ease. The final photos were breathtaking—capturing both the beauty of Queenstown and the intimate moments we’ll cherish forever. If you’re considering a photoshoot here, we can’t recommend Emma enough!
