Trovare il fotografo per il giorno del proprio matrimonio non è semplice...anzi...ma quando si trova la persona giusta con cui fin da subito si entra in sintonia, beh, è come vincere al lotto. Ellen è una persona incredibile, simpatica, solare e piena di idee, sempre disponibile ad ascoltare le perplessità e sempre pronta a trovare una soluzione a tutti i problemi.
Presenza silenziosa durante il matrimonio ma capace di catturare anche il più piccolo dettaglio.
Il fotolibro è stato il culmine di tutto, abbiamo lavorato tanto per renderlo perfetto e grazie a lei ci siamo riusciti.
Non credo proprio che ci saremmo trovati così bene con un altro forografo...è stato tutto perfetto!
Ogni coppia dovrebbe avere Ellen ad immortalare i momenti importanti...è una garanzia!!

Per il reportage del nostro matrimonio, volevamo essenzialmente delle foto capaci di catturare – senza cliché o atteggiamenti impostati – il flusso di emozioni uniche che si sarebbe generato quel giorno.
Ellen, muovendosi tra noi e i nostri invitati come un angelo custode, invisibile agli occhi ma sempre presente, è riuscita perfettamente a cogliere la spontaneità dei gesti, degli sguardi, dei vari momenti di festa, fermandoli in immagini che non ci stanchiamo mai di riguardare, anche a distanza di settimane da quella bellissima data.
Il nostro album di nozze è il risultato di un lavoro fatto con grande serietà, passione e professionalità, in cui non ci siamo mai sentiti trattati da meri committenti di un servizio, ma come protagonisti da accompagnare con discrezione nella loro favola, cercando di capire ed interpretare al meglio i loro sentimenti.
Grazie!

My experience with Ellen was beyond amazing! She was able to work with my budget and still create an incredible photography experience for us! The photos turned out even better than I imagined them to be. Ellen is so easy to work with and has such a bright spirit. I would hands down recommend her to anyone wanting to create beautiful memories in the Dolomites! So grateful for her artistry!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ellen to capture one of the most significant moments of my life - my surprise marriage proposal. From the very beginning, Ellen exhibited the utmost professionalism and a keen eye for detail.

Throughout the entire proposal planning process, Ellen was an absolute lifeline. Her willingness to go the extra mile, coordinating and guiding me remotely through Zoom and email, significantly eased any stress that I had been feeling. She patiently listened to my ideas, offering expert suggestions that not only fit my vision but also maximized the beauty of the Dolomites.

Her attention to detail was remarkable, ensuring that every element of the proposal, from timing to the ideal spot, was meticulously planned. It was her dedication and support that allowed me to focus on the excitement of the moment rather than the logistics, and for that, I am profoundly grateful. Her expertise and warm guidance were instrumental in making our Dolomites proposal a seamless and joyous experience.

What truly sets Ellen apart is her ability to capture raw emotions. The photos she took are not just pictures but windows into the depth of feeling shared between my partner and me during that pivotal moment. Each shot is a work of art, filled with genuine smiles, joyful tears, and the overwhelming love we felt for each other.

Additionally, the turnaround time for receiving our photos was incredibly quick, and the quality was impeccable. Ellen truly went above and beyond to ensure that we had a beautiful collection of images to relive our special day.

If you're looking for a photographer who can capture the essence of your most cherished moments with grace and artistry, I wholeheartedly recommend booking Ellen. Her talent, professionalism, and passion for her craft is truly exceptional, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Thank you, Ellen, for preserving our proposal in such a breathtaking way. You've given us a gift that will be treasured for the rest of our lives.

I cannot recommend Ellen enough, for any couple looking to elope in the Dolomites.

From the very beginning, we could tell that Ellen prioritised our needs. She took the time to get to know us, what we were looking for, and gave us so many good tips and suggestions. As a local to the area, Ellen is very knowledgeable about potential elopement spots, as she's personally scouted hundreds of these herself.

Ellen was incredibly communicative leading up to the elopement day, and also extremely flexible- my partner and I were so assured by Ellen that we literally did not have to worry about a thing. Even on the day, our plans shifted a bit because of the forecast, but it actually worked out so well because Ellen was able to suggest a different area that wasn't affected as much by the cloudy/foggy weather.

Ellen is so much more than a photographer, she goes above and beyond and you can see how passionate she is about making the day for her booked couples as special as possible. She made us feel extremely comfortable even though we had never posed for photos before. Her positive energy made her such a joy to be with!

Before we even headed out for dinner later that day of the elopement, we already received a gallery of preview photos from Ellen. Lightning fast!! And my goodness the photos were absolutely breathtaking (see for yourself!)

I look back on this day with such fondness, not only because it was a truly beautiful event with my partner, but because Ellen was there and made it so magical. I literally can't imagine having done this without her. What are you waiting for, book her now!!

If you are looking for someone who will capture the moments of your special day in an authentic, adventurous, and totally “unique-to-you” way, look no further! Ellen is so much more than a photographer; she is a local Dolomites guide who infuses her heritage with the area into her art. Not only did our elopement photos blow us away, but the planning process also brought us closer as a couple and heightened the excitement for that magical day. This is because Ellen has curated a well thought out “get to know you” curriculum adapted to the needs and vibes of the couple. There is no template approach to her trade, no cliché pictures captured. If you’re looking for those overdone Instagram locations, Ellen is NOT your gal! But if you’re looking for secret moments tied intimately to you as a couple that you will revisit time and time again, then wait not longer – you’ve found your match.

From the moment we met Ellen on Zoom we could tell we loved her clever, funny personality…the “awesome sauce” sign offs and the “drop it like it’s hot” forms always made us smile. We genuinely looked forward to our meetings and had a blast filling out the questionaries together. Each connection point allowed her to dig into us as a couple/family, our wishes, and gave her the tools to craft the most magical experience we could have ever dreamed of. That day was brought to light in such a vibrant way with not standard wedding pics, but instead true moments capturing us as a family – silly, adventurous, and connected.

Oh, and one more point to make…her adaptability. Ellen had the pleasure of shooting us as a threesome…bride, groom, and 1 year old baby girl. Having a baby can make any elopement day “up in the air.” She seamlessly worked around our daughter’s nap schedule as well as her melt down moments. Ellen also saved the day with an awesome Plan B location option when we forgot the baby carrier for our 2-hour hike. Then again, she saved the day when the groom lost the car keys…she kept the bride and baby calm, drove them back to the hotel, and returned to help the groom find the key - yippee.

Ellen’s experience is extremely multifaceted. Yes, she over delivers on her photography trade and that’s why you originally hire her. But the added bag of tricks of local recommendations, vendor connections, secret locations, native heritage storytelling, and her brilliantly funny personality make the whole planning process and elopement day so much more special. We knew we hired a amazing local photographer, but in the end, we got an amazing local Ladin friend. Thank you Ellen for making our elopement exceed all of our expectations. We miss you and Colfosco!
