Elli Bel
We designed the wedding photography packages the way we would have wanted our own weddings to be photographed—with care, creativity, and without time constraints. That’s why we offer unlimited time, allowing you to enjoy your day exactly as you envisioned, free from the stress of overtime charges or being late. Every fleeting moment, every heartfelt exchange, and every detail is captured naturally, preserving the true essence of your wedding.
As masterful portraitists we blend timeless, elegant portraits with candid storytelling, ensuring your photos reflect the emotions, energy, and uniqueness of your celebration. We don’t believe in a cookie-cutter approach—every couple is different, and your personalities should shine through in your wedding images. We take the time to truly document your love story, letting you be yourselves while creating a collection of photographs that feel as authentic and one-of-a-kind as you are.
Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime experience—let’s capture it beautifully, with artistry and intention, so you can relive it for generations to come.
Engagement Photography
An engagement session is a perfect way to celebrate your love and tell your story in a way that feels true to you. We take the time to get to know my couples, learning what they love to do together and using that as inspiration for the location and theme of the session. Whether it’s revisiting the place where the proposal happened, capturing moments at your wedding venue, or simply choosing a beautiful park or urban setting, every session is thoughtfully tailored to reflect your unique connection.
With a blend of candid storytelling and masterful portraiture, we create images that feel natural, effortless, and full of genuine emotion. There’s no pressure to pose perfectly—just be yourselves, and we'll guide you through a relaxed, fun experience that brings out your personalities.
We also have plenty of creative ideas and a few dream locations still on my engagement photography bucket list—if you're up for an adventure, let’s make it happen!
Family Photography and Mini Sessions
Life moves fast, but your family’s most cherished moments deserve to be captured and remembered. Our family photography sessions are all about real connections, natural interactions, and preserving the love and joy that make your family unique. Whether it’s a playful outdoor adventure, a cozy at-home session, or a classic portrait, we create timeless images that reflect your family’s genuine bond.
For those looking for a shorter, stress-free experience, the mini sessions are a perfect option. These quick, beautifully curated sessions are ideal for busy families, holiday cards, milestones, or just updating your family portraits. With a relaxed approach, we ensure every session is fun and effortless, allowing kids and parents alike to feel at ease while we capture the love that makes you a family.
Wedding Videography
Your wedding day is more than an event—it’s an experience filled with emotion, fleeting moments, and unforgettable memories. Our videographers captures every detail, immersing you in the sights, sounds, and feelings of your day.
We go beyond visuals to preserve the laughter, whispers, and music that make your wedding unique. Through cinematic storytelling, sweeping shots, and intimate close-ups, we create a film that unfolds like a beautifully told love story—personal and timeless.
From your first kiss to the joyful cheers of your guests, video brings every moment to life. We also capture the little details you might miss—the reactions, the venue, and candid moments that complete your story.
With expert editing, cinematic techniques, and custom music, we craft a polished, high-end film that reflects your love. Relive your wedding day again and again with a keepsake that lasts a lifetime.
