Intimate City Weddings & Elopements

Vibrant, personal, deeply emotional and genuine. Spur-of-the-moment or well-planned affairs. City hall elopements or your closest loved ones in a church, a celebratory pint, rowdy wine lunch or dinner at your favourite restaurants. Intimate weddings are no less emotional, fun or beautiful than a traditional wedding; they’re simply more focused on what’s really important.

My never-ending love for intimate weddings

Considering that I fell in love with weddings in the Dublin Registry Office, my overall love for anything that screams personality and my appreciation for street photography, it’s no surprise that intimate city weddings hold a special place in my heart. Maybe it’s a way for you to legalise things before a big wedding, or perhaps you just really want to elope. Or, maybe, a short and sweet ceremony in Stockholm City Hall, followed by a festive dinner with your loved ones, is just what feels most like you. Whether you choose to hit a pub, book your favourite restaurant or have a party in the evening, I’m here for it. Intimate weddings and elopements are, in my opinion, just as amazing as a more traditional wedding. (If not more amazing.)

My approach

Much like any other wedding I photograph, my approach is purely documentary. I embrace imperfections, love odd angles, seek interesting details and never tell you to do anything for the sake of a photo. I let you be in the moment and truly enjoy your day - whether it’s just the two of you, or you choose to have your closest friends and family there.

Unlike some other weddings, my inspiration from street photography really gets to shine. I love capturing you and your loved ones in a vibrant city scene, a buzzing restaurant or loud pub. The combination of extremely well-dressed people walking by a construction site or hitting the street from a taxi, along with random people on the street shouting their congratulations, is some of my all-time favourite scenes.

“Emma is lovely and professional! The photographs are amazing, she was able to capture all our emotions. Much more of what we could ever expect, her photos are full of love and style! We are delighted to have chosen her.”

-Giroga & Daniel

information

  • I’d love to get to know you and hear about what’s important to you! Fill out the form below or email me at emma@emmawiss.com, and we’ll get chatting about you and your day.

  • If we’re a good match, I’ll send you a contract for you to go through. Once you’re ready to book me, you simply sign the contract. You’ll be invoiced 1-3 days after your wedding, and pay no later than 10 days after receiving the invoice.

  • Given my approach is pure documentary, I’ll essentially be an extra guest armed with a camera on your wedding day. I read the room, chat with guests and bring an overall calm and joyful presence. I’ll cheer you on alongside your guests and will do everything in my power to ensure that your day is amazing, while I document it in all its raw, beautiful, honest glory.

  • Of course, we’ll take some portraits- if you want to. Most couples opt to have some portraits taken. I’ll help with simple guidance, if needed - but mainly I’ll observe and capture how you interact with each other. I’ll simply let you be yourselves, while proving that you are not awkward in photos. The portraits never take longer than 30 minutes, but can also be done in under 10.
