don’t think there are words to describe our experience with Emily. From the first enquiry to the elopement day to receiving our photos. everything was just perfect.
The enquiry went through and we received initial information super quickly. Emily was super kind in replying to any kind of questions, so when we decided to book her for our big day, we knew exactly what we are getting and had a great feeling about that. After the booking, Emily made sure to keep in touch with us, by either providing her elopement booklet and the countdown emails.
On the day, Emily arrived to the agreed time, fully prepared. Meeting Emily in person was so lovely. it felt like we knew her all our lives, and she just slotted into our wedding day, making us feel at ease right from the start. Her approach and her ability as a photographer are amazing, at no time did we feel like we are posing, or doing something that was unnatural to us. She would suggest some loose poses, and everything else was up to us. We are super awkward infront of camera, but at no time did we feel awkward with Emily. Thank you for that. Instead, the hours booked with Emily passed by so quickly, that we couldnt believe when it was time to say goodbye. After the wedding, Emily made sure we had a little preview to share with friends and family and kept us up to date with the rest of the gallery. The preview as well as the slide show already blew us away, but seeing the full gallery and every lilttle moment of the day now beautifully captured was amazing. The pictures Emily took are all breathtaking! Family and friends are all speechless and compliment on how easily Emily was able to capture that happiness and love of the day! We are so happy we have chosen Emily, and cant recommend her enough!

I only decided on the Wedding date once I found Emily.... I decided on our wedding date after stumbling upon Emily on instagram. To be honest, I was in a world of trying to choose which style I wanted for our day, and I had no ideas about where to have it. When I saw Emily's beautiful work, artistic, romantic, and just stunning – I knew that her photography was exactly what we needed to capture our connection and the day itself.

Emily is not only a pro behind the camera but also a genuinely friendly and lovely person. I asked her to pick our location, and she nailed it. Thanks to her, our day was nothing short of perfect. I don't just like the pictures; I absolutely adore every single one of them. I can't recommend Emily enough to anyone thinking of eloping. You won't regret it! x

Choosing Emily as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our Iceland elopement. Emily’s relaxed personality perfectly aligned with our vibe. It was an incredibly easy choice once we saw her extraordinary work. The emotion she is able to capture felt like it would have been impossible for us to be seen in this way, but Emily made it so easy and we could not have been happier with the results. We have received so many incredible comments about how amazing our photos are, and it absolutely speaks to Emily as a photographer and artist. You can feel the story in every photograph, and we instantly feel transported back. Her guidance through finding the locations allowed us to have a beautifully quiet ceremony, alongside finding some of the most stunning spots for us to be photographed in. She even had recommendations on where to stop for hot chocolate throughout the day. Emily is incredibly kind, patient and compassionate. At our last location, the weather took a turn for the worse with torrential downpour and wind, but Emily’s enthusiasm and creativity allowed us to enjoy the unpredictable Iceland weather, and the photos of us embracing the wind and rain are amongst some of our favourites from the day. If you’re on the fence about finding your elopement photographer, look no further than Emily Black Photography.

My husband and I made the decision to elope to Iceland for an intimate wedding -- the two of us, a photographer, videographer, and officiant (for the ceremony portion). I put so much time into carefully choosing the two humans to share our special day with. Eloping to Iceland and hiring Emily as our photographer (and our videographer Martin) were the best decisions we could have made. Our wedding was unequivocally the BEST, most magical, day of our lives.
Emily's talents and her capacity to capture all of the emotions and everything in between makes her work worth sooo much more than a thousand words. On top of this, Emily is such a pure, kind, and soothing spirit -- really just a true joy to be around. We are so happy to have made these memories with her.
The video that was included in our package was such a special addition. I had showed our friends we were with after receiving, and could never have expected the waterworks that were happening in the room.. seriously!! It created such a special moment outside of our wedding day that I'll cherish forever. To watch our friends reactions and experience how moving her work really is, how emotionally captivating it is to even those that weren't there to experience the day, was magic.
It's through Emily's talents that so much of our family who 'didn't get it' when we chose to elope, had that 'aha' moment hit them to their core. And, just like us, share our story, these photos, and the magic that exists in an Iceland elopement to pretty much anyone who'll listen! Emily, we love you so much and are eternally grateful for you!!! And for anyone who made it to the end of this review, just book her!

Having Emily as our photographer was one of the highlights of our big day. She was incredibly accommodating. She offered to drive us to each photo location, helped me zip my dress and even let me borrow her jacket when the wind picked up between photos. Emily is a down to earth person with skill that is out of this world. Our photos are GORGEOUS. Her moody, romantic style is exactly what we were looking for. Our friends and family are obsessed with our photos and we couldn't be happier. If you are considering Emily as your photographer, you will not be disappointed.
