What’s different about an elopement for later-celebration couples

An elopement booked by later-celebration couples has a slightly different brief to the average session, even if the process looks similar on paper.

The images need to work harder for a specific purpose, whether that’s a particular platform, a particular audience, or a particular use case that a generic elopement wouldn’t necessarily account for. That means a slightly different conversation before the shoot, and sometimes a different selection of looks or setups on the day.

If you fall into this group, it’s worth saying so clearly when you enquire, so the session gets planned around the actual use case from the start rather than adjusted afterwards.

Pricing, process and everything else sits on the Elopements & Small Weddings page, and a direct message gets a straight answer faster than a search ever will, so get in touch if in doubt.

FAQs

A couple of quick answers.

Can you help us plan the day if it is just the two of us?
Happily. A good number of elopements shot means timings, backup locations and small touches are easy to suggest for a stripped-back day that still feels considered.

What counts as an elopement or small wedding?
Anything from two people at a registry office to a wedding breakfast with twenty guests. If it is intimate by choice rather than by necessity, this is the coverage built for it.
