Meet your Switzerland Elopement Photographer
Hey, I’m Morgane!
I’m an elopement photographer living in Switzerland, and I’m committed to helping you have an amazing and unforgettable Switzerland Elopement. Together we’ll create a day (or several!) of adventure in the most jaw-dropping landscapes, that’ll allow you to take time to enjoy being in nature and celebrate your relationship in a free and safe way.
I know planning an Elopement Package in Switzerland, especially if you don’t live in the country, is a huge task. But you’ve come to the right person, as I pretty much live for a well-planned event. From the start, I’ll be here to suggest the best locations, trusted vendors, and activities, as well as craft the schedule of your day for stunning imagery.
I am passionnate about stories. The ones I read or watch and that later inspire me to tell yours. Capturing your day, romanticizing it, and providing you with fairytale vibes pictures in a non-intrusive way is always my goal so that you get to relive your Switzerland Elopement over and over again.

The Elopement Package in Switzerland is carried out under all weather conditions, even if it rains. If the weather conditions make it dangerous to proceed with parts of the Switzerland Elopement, the itinerary might be adjusted.
The Elopement Package in the Swiss Alps can be moved to the previous/following day. If I have to rebook a hotel/transport, fees may apply.
The programme is always crafted specifically for each couple. The beauty of our elopement package is that there are no set rules, and you can truly do whatever you want, in whichever order suits you best. I’m also here to advise my couples on that, and to create the final timeline for their Elopement in Switzerland so that you get a stress-free day, that runs smoothly. I’m also taking light into account, so that you get the best pictures out of it.
I also want to mention that everything takes more time than you need on a Switzerland Elopement, so having a lot of time ahead of you is always a good idea.
No possibility of getting legally married on your Elopement in the Swiss Alps.
I’m open to any activity for your Switzerland Elopement, that can include hiking, going on a boat trip, paragliding, etc. I love suggesting ideas to my couples 🙂
LGBTQ-friendly: It is my main focus that EVERYONE can feel safe to express themselves around me. Holding space for every couple is a core value of mine and of my business, and I have a very strong position on that. My couple feeling safe enough to be themselves is, to me, even more important than the pictures.

Your Switzerland Elopement - Tips & Infos
Switzerland’s weather can be really unpredictable, all year round. I always recommend my couples to pack layers even in the summer, as being cold can really alter your Switzerland Elopement experience.
Also, be mentally prepared that it might not be sunny for your Elopement in the Swiss Alps, and that it’s completely okay! I can only encourage my couples to embrace the elements, as this is really what will make your Elopement in Switzerland experience memorable, and definitely super romantic. I mean, have you ever kissed your partner under the rain with the wind in your hair, like in the movies?
The weather in the Alps can change pretty quickly so you’ll need to be adaptable. I always check the weather in the days preceding your Switzerland Elopement, and I’ll do my utmost to suggest a backup plan in another location or adjust the schedule if necessary. In summer, evening thunderstorms are frequent, especially if the weather has been really hot during the day. If that happens, we can move the day or plan for a sunrise adventure instead, as it doesn’t happen at that time of day.
International airports in Switzerland are located in Geneva, Zürich and Basel. There, you can rent a car. We also have the best train network in Europe. It’s quite expensive but it can get you almost everywhere. You can buy a Swiss Travel Pass, that’ll allow you unlimited rides on regular trains (gondolas and cogwheel trains in touristic places aren’t included generally) on a set amount of days.
Hiking is not required on your Elopement in the Swiss Alps, but most accessible places will also be more crowded. If we pick an accessible location, I’ll make sure it’s possible to spread out to get some privacy during your Elopement in Switzerland. Stunning places can be reached in a 2-hour hike, or even less. Hiking doesn’t always mean it’s going to be super strenuous! Everything is possible, and I’m sending you a questionnaire before location scouting for you, so that my recommendations can really fit your needs and fitness level for your Switzerland Elopement.
Your Elopement in Switzerland - Add-ons
Up to 10 guests can attend your Switzerland Elopement at no extra cost. Additional costs for guest will be covered by the couples or their guests. If there are guests, I generally advise you to spend some part of the day with them (like the ceremony, or a supper in the evening), and to still do some part of the day just the two of you, or maybe with 1-2 people. This ensure you’ll get the intimate and stress-free Elopement in the Swiss Alps of your dreams.
