How we came to love elopements
When I was a kid growing up in Sweden, weddings to me were large gatherings with unfamiliar faces. That’s what I thought a wedding was supposed to look like—until one trip changed everything.
Years later, me and my wife Irene visited Italy, specifically Capri. We stayed at a beautiful hotel perched high on a cliff, where we remember being mesmerized by the sight of seagulls flying below me. As we wandered back to the hotel, filled with awe and excitement, we suddenly found ourselves face-to-face with a woman in a stunning pearl-white wedding dress. She had just stepped out of the hotel, calling for someone inside. We exchanged quick glances before we hurried away, but our curiosity got the better of us.
She walked toward the cliffside where we had just been, leaning on the railing. Her face lit up as her partner approached, and they kissed and laughed together. Nearby, someone was taking photos of them, and it hit us—this was a wedding, but not like the ones we’d seen before. It was intimate, spontaneous, and full of life. We soon realized that this person having a camera did this as a job, what an dream job we thought, so right there on the island of Capri far away from home we decided that we wanted the same job as the person we saw earlier that day.
Later in the evening at a restaurant with a view over the bay, we spotted a bride and groom, sailing in to the sunset on a small sailboat. That memory still stays with us, and that's how we decided to become elopement photographers
