Elopement experiences in TUSCANY & Florence

There’s something different about a “just us” elopement

Instead of a big wedding with a busy schedule, your day is simple and intentional. It follows a natural flow, from one place to the next. More freedom, more presence, more of that la dolce vita feeling.

You’ve imagined it a hundred times just as you have seen in the movies

Walking hand in hand from quiet piazzas to open views over the hills, from a late afternoon wander through hidden streets to a glass of wine at sunset, and saying your vows with a breathtaking view as your backdrop.

“I can’t believe this is real!”

– said one of my couples while watching the sunset over the Tuscan hills.

And that’s exactly it – those rare moments when you feel completely inside your own life, with the person you love, in a place almost too beautiful to take in all at once.

What eloping in TUSCANY means

For most couples, eloping in Italy means keeping all the legal part and hassle at home and coming here for the experience of a symbolic ceremony.
Instead of managing paperwork and logistics, your day moves through real locations and activities you love doing. You get a day that feels exciting, fun and one of a kind.

Elopement or micro wedding in Italy?

With an elopement, you usually say your vows in a beautiful outside location and handle the legal part at home. This gives you full freedom to enjoy the day as you want.
A micro wedding instead involves a legal or formal ceremony in Italy, often at a venue or town hall, with a wedding planner, guests and a structured schedule.

Should we elope?

If you value intimacy and intentional experience then eloping might be the one for you.
By letting go of expectations and traditions, you can shape a wedding experience in Italy that truly reflects who you are. Ride in the Tuscan hills, celebrate in an ancient village or say your vows in a vineyard. In the end, it all comes down to what feels right for you.

  • Eva delivered the most perfect experience
    Eva couldn’t have guided our elopement any better! Being a local she had a plan B and plan C for every circumstances. She was incredibly friendly, easy to work with, and trustworthy. Throughout the process, we felt that she really got to know us through the questions she asked. And based on the information she gathered, she recommended great ceremony and photoshoot locations matching our requirements. Eva delivered the most perfect experience, far exceeding our expectations. We can’t recommend her enough!

CIAO, I’m Eva

Your local Elopement Photographer & Planning Consultant in tuscany

Photography for me isn’t just about portraits – it’s about designing a cinematic experience shaped by light, place, and story. With a degree in cinematography and life as a local in Tuscany, I plan each elopement around timing, light, and location, building scenes rather than isolated moments. For elopements, this means a curated Tuscan experience where the landscape becomes part of your story.

She made everything feel effortless and genuinely special.

UNIQUE benefits working with me

Local Expertise & extra Flexibility

Working exclusively in Tuscany means knowing this region in a way only a local can. Every elopement is planned with permits, logistics, and weather in mind, including built-in backup options.

Cinematic STYLE Storytelling

With a degree in cinematography, your elopement is captured with a cinematic vision. From hidden alleys to sunset terraces and cypress-lined pauses, each moment is timed and planned to flow into a visual story.

Clear Communication & International Experience

I speak fluent English and Italian, making communication smooth both with you and with everyone involved locally. Having worked with couples from over 30 countries, I understand different expectations and styles.

Local and Legal Photographer

I am an officially registered photographer based in Florence. Working with a local means no travel fees, visa concerns, or logistical risks as everything is already in place for a smooth experience in Italy.

More than just a photographer

how to get started with your elopement Journey

1. inquire

Get started by sending an email. Share your dreams & visions.

2. connect

We’ll connect over a complimentary call to get all your questions answered.

3. Reserve Your Date

I’ll prepare a proposal of services so you can fully understand how I can help.

4. the planning

After you picked your date we start the planning: we design the mood, timing, and the scenes of your story.

5. The Elopement day

The best part. You get to be fully present with your loved one while I document all the beautiful moments.

6. the photos

After your elopement, I’ll carefully edit your images using cinematic color grading. Each scene will be arranged like a visual narrative.

In general elopements are more affordable because you don’t spend money on venue, legal ceremony, decoration, large dinner, live music, etc. Your budget goes into traveling, the experiences, and how the day is built but the final budget depends a lot on your own preferences. Your main costs will be the travel, the experiences you book, your dress and your photographer. For the experiences you can opt for a romantic candle light picnic or an adventurous Ferrari ride.

All of my elopement packages are including the planning assistance so in case of a symbolic ceremony there is no need to hire an additional wedding planner. I’m here to help you with all the details.

Tuscany has the most versatile landscape in Italy. You can choose between the seaside venue, a small village, an olive farm – or a combinations of these during a full day or two days elopement. As a local I know hidden places you won’t find in the books.

Every single day! As a local I live with the rhythm of the land. Tuscany offers beach, hills, nature and towns and all of these have their own season. We can go through all the options at our first consultation call.

See how it looks like

  • “My wife and I knew that a traditional wedding route was not going to be for us. Our main focus was that we were celebrating our love and for the entire process to be about us. No one else. With that in mind, we knew an elopement style was the best fit. When we found YourDreamPictures we knew that this was exactly what we were looking for without even knowing it. The entire process was so effortless, seamless and fun. Eva is fantastic. She’s your planner, your local guide, your photographer, your literal everything. Every single detail was covered throughout her process. Literally from the weather of potential locations, to timing of sunsets and other vendors. She covers everything and more than you will need to know for you special day. It was everything we dreamed of! We would do this over and over and over again.”

Feeling overwhelmed by too many elopement options?

When every photographer and elopement package starts to look the same, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure where to start.

What you actually need is someone who knows Tuscany deeply, understands how a wedding day really flows here, and can turn all your ideas into one clear, fully designed experience.

That’s exactly what I do.

This is your wedding day, but it’s also real life in Italy, so all packages include built-in flexibility to adjust the timeline for weather, logistics, or unexpected changes.

“BUT we don’t know how to pose and we feel awkward in front of the camera!”

I get it. You might feel awkward, or think you’re “not photogenic.”

But not with me.

Almost every couple I work with felt the same at first, but then they all said that the whole experience was fun.

Your day is built around activities you actually enjoy – so instead of posing, you’re walking, exploring, sharing a glass of wine, driving through the hills, just being together.

No experience, no modeling skills, no stress.

Just real moments for genuine people, captured beautifully.

  • Exactly the stress-free elopement we were hoping for!
    We couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our elopement in Tuscany. Eva handled all the planning details, suggested beautiful but realistic locations, and gave us a timeline that made the day feel relaxed and well-paced. It was exactly what we hoped for: simple, personal, and beautifully organized.

  • The photos feel like a real story, not a photoshoot
    What surprised us most was how unposed everything felt on the day. Eva gave just enough direction for us to feel comfortable, then stepped back and let things unfold naturally. The final gallery doesn’t feel like we were “photographed”, it feels like we’re inside our own memory of the day. We are still obsessed with the photos and sent them to all our friends and family!

  • She actually knows Tuscany inside out!
    Working with Eva felt like having someone local who genuinely knows Tuscany, not just someone photographing there. She suggested places we would have never found on our own and explained exactly why each location would work and how to get there. The whole experience felt fun, real, and very thoughtfully put together.
