florida elopement & wedding photographer
I’m Claudya!
I’m a Florida-based documentary-style wedding & micro-wedding/elopement photographer, and I’m so friggin glad you’re here!! My goal is to help couples craft an intentional, adventurous celebration that feels true to who you are and what you value, and if you’re here, well hey, that’s you!
My love for nostalgic weddings all began with my own elopement
As I was planning my elopement, the last thing I wanted was for my wedding to feel like a performance. I wanted something custom, intimate, and totally true to us. It was the culminating moment in our love story up to that point – our wedding day! – and I wanted it to feel like that, not a cookie cutter, copy-paste wedding. Chances are that if you’re here, you feel the same way too.
sooooo.. how do i do things differently?
I’m so glad you asked!! When you book with me, you get…
What to expect on the big day
After months and months of planning and dreaming, when the big day comes, I want you to be fully present. No worrying about logistics or timelines – leave that up to me. With over a decade of luxury event experience, I know what it takes to keep an event running smoothly and on schedule, without feeling rushed. My couples are able to simply experience the day as it unfolds, and I capture it exactly as it happens with documentary-style meets editorial photography (aaaannd film in the mix). You’ll be able to focus on having the best day of your entire life, and relive the emotions through the photos I capture for years to come.
