I’m Ellen—a cat mom with a goth streak, a proud Ladin local. Basically, someone who’s been born and wandering the Dolomites since long before Instagram found them. I photograph elopements and proposals for people who want something intimate, intentional, and a little bit unexpected. If there’s a hidden ridge, a quiet forest opening, or a view you can’t find on Google Maps, chances are I already know it (and how to get there without the crowds).
My approach is part creative guide, part local insider friend. Whether you choose one of my ready-made favorites or want something built from scratch, I plan experiences that feel personal, relaxed, and full of those tiny moments that end up becoming your favorite memories. I love to get that bit of Lord of the Rings drama, slow adventures, cozy corners, and a sprinkle of rock ’n’ roll energy.
I believe the best photographs come from moments where people feel free, understood, and completely themselves—so everything I do is designed to help you get there.
