We should be your Wedding Photographers, if:

you know what you (don’t) want and are free-spirited people,

Photo- and Film-Memories are very important to you,

you prefer to celebrate your wedding in a small, inner circle just the way you like it,

traditional weddings are not your thing,

you dream of giving each other the most significant love promise in free nature – maybe even at a spiritual place,

you love traveling, are open-minded, nature-loving and incredibly in love with each other,

you don’t mind being a bit crazy and showing yourself in all your unique facets,

being barefoot in the grass, feeling sand between your toes, breathing crystal clear air in the forest, looking at never-ending vistas on a mountain – in a word: discovering the most beautiful places on earth makes you happy!

Our passion is not only professional wedding photography
and wedding videography

… more than anything we enjoy the freedom to accompany our couples to lovely places on earth and cherish their free spirit and their love for eternity. What you will get from us, if you book us as your wedding photographers:

Freedom:

We believe in personal freedom and self-expression! We are so curious about life with all its unbelievable stories. The freedom to travel and discover the world makes us so happy. We want to pass this happiness on to you when we meet on your special day in your chosen country.

Authenticity and Closeness:

It is essential to us to create real, vivid, and authentic pictures – we interfere very little in the process and let things happen! In doing so, we often notice that our couples begin to glow from the inside, and we get the best results in pictures and films.

Emotion:

Bridal couples are immediately attracted emotionally to our portfolio as if they had been there themselves. We can capture the emotions of this day and create a fantastic story. Especially with Octavia, you can tell she has a huge passion for her work: She is shining while working and opens up the hearts of others because people feel intuitive that Octavia loves what she does! Both of us give our whole hearts to our couples!

On the wedding day -Together for eternity

This is how we work at weddings with family and guests:

We are very close to you guys but still discrete – especially as regards to our attire. We will talk to you and your guests and create trust. Always present but still not in the middle of the event – that’s very important for us. Furthermore, we don’t use flashlight – only after sunset when it is very dark, will we use a flashlight if needed!

Before the shoot we will give you some quiet and peace first – which is very important for you guys to relax – if needed we leave you alone for a bit. Very often we can see that all the tensions and emotions of the day roll off your back!

At the shooting you can enjoy the intimacy and togetherness – it will be the time for being playful and having a lot of intimacy. We encourage you to be tactile with each other! Also, we photograph a lot in motion because it leads to a nice and easy atmosphere and relaxes both of you.

Because we met you already in person before the wedding, we will know a lot about your connection with each other and we will use that for the shoot. For example, we have found that playing your favorite song in the background will create very deep and special emotions that you share!

We ensure that the shoot is not unnecessarily long, in total it will last no more than 45 minutes. This way you will get to be present in the moment and enjoy with your guests all the wonderful moments of your very special day.

Who are we and why are we the perfect match for your special day?

We have been working as professional wedding photographers and videographers since 2012 and we have been honored to accompany more than 200 bridal couples.
We stand for authentic, natural and emotional Visual Storytelling.
We live for tolerance, open-mindedness, true-self, authenticity and spirit of adventure.
Furthermore, we are empathetic, life-experienced, camper lovers and absolute cat fanatics!

FAQs for destination wedding photography and elopements:

When will we receive photo- and film material?

A few days after the wedding we will send you a photo slide show with music.
About 2-3 weeks later you will receive an online gallery with approximately 500 – 900 photos (perfectly edited and high- resolution)
The completion of your wedding film will take up to four months after your wedding maximum.
The online gallery will be available for at least a year – with different access variety for guests and family.
Photo albums are available for an extra charge. We will consult with you about the design which will be finalized when you are completely happy – and you will have wonderful memories to cherish together!

Which cameras do you work with?

We use a Canon Full Format Reflex Camera.
For the video we use Panasonic GH5.

What happens if the weather isn’t cooperating?

Beforehand we also talk to you about the timetable and possible bad- weather-scenarios. If the weather forecasts rain, we react flexibly and work around the weather taking our opportunities to shoot when available. If it rains heavily, we will shoot with you guys under an umbrella or a shelter and all other pictures indoors. This only happened a handful of times – we always achieved images with great atmosphere and intimacy even when it’s raining.

What happens with technical issues?

We always carry a backup camera should our primary camera have any problems. Furthermore, we always save the pictures on two separate memory cards, if one card becomes corrupted, we have a fail safety. But: Having shot over 200 weddings capturing over 200 000 images we’ve never lost a single one.

How do we arrive at your location?

We always travel to the location of the wedding in our camper and sleep in it, too.
You cover the cost of fuel either as a fix price or by kilometer charge (0,40 Euro / km).

Do you have questions?

We are a little camera shy - how will you make us feel comfortable?

Once the shoot begins, we will give you all the time you need to lose any stress. Moments of peace and relaxation are very important before the shoot begins – very often the tension of the day dissolves and our couples feel free and centered! Many couples don’t like to be the center of attention and already feel drained by the afternoon or evening, because there has been a lot of emotions and impressions throughout the day! We are aware of that and are there to help you that you find your inner balance and be relaxed when being photographed. We will help when you feel insecure and also when your nerves are bare. We totally understand how exciting this day is for our bridal couples and always manage to give some calmness and that you feel good!

Why should we book both of you?

Our added value is that we are a well-coordinated photo- and video team that exactly knows where the other person stands, so therefore, we never get in each other’s way, especially in important moments like the exchanging of wedding bands or the magical kiss after exchanging your vows!
