The Personalized, Stress-Free Elopement Experience

Ireland elopement photography & planning for a wedding day that feels like yours, not like everyone else’s

 

Not here for big, performative weddings? Neither am I.

Solar Rose exists for folks who just don’t see themselves getting married “the traditional way.”

But this is likely your first elopement, right? Maybe your first trip to Ireland? Probably your first time planning an international wedding.

That can feel like a lot, especially if you’re down a Google rabbit hole. And that’s ok.

Because you have me.

 

 

GET MARRIED DIFFERENTLY

Forget the rigid packages and crowded castle photoshoots — those aren’t elopements, they’re productions. As your photographer and consultant, I help folks just like you create an elopement that’s peaceful, whimsical, and yours.

Because your elopement should feel like…whatever you want it to feel like.

 

 

Whether you’re ready to book or you’re still in the investigation phase, you’ll find everything you need over on my website. Details on Ireland elopement packages, articles about eloping in Ireland, how to visit as an American, all of it.

(And I swear, it’s going to be so easy. I cannot describe to you how much easier it is than you’re imagining)

 

From custom location suggestions to a personalized timeline for your day, it’s a fully bespoke experience. Whatever it is you want your elopement day to be…that’s what you can have.

Nothing is ever rushed. There’s always time for breaks or spontaneity, whatever you need.

And if you aren’t sure what you want your elopement day to feel like yet? That’s ok too, I’m here to bounce ideas off of and brainstorm. Lean on my experience!

Ireland really is a fairytale place, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

 

All Ireland elopement packages include:

  • Photography (obviously); let’s talk and figure out exactly what you need
  • Highlight film
  • Drone photography/videography
  • The Elopement Compass, my unique planning system
  • Accommodations and assistance for neurodivergent folks
  • All your images displayed in a beautiful gallery that tells the story of your elopement
  • Printing rights to your images
  • A custom album design
  • Unlimited downloads
  • Hands-on planning assistance and consultations
  • My travel anywhere in the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland

 

Can you do this on your own?

Sure. But why would you?

 

Some of you have been to Ireland before and know exactly what you want and how to do it.

But most folks planning a destination elopement without this kind of support end up spending weeks sorting through travel blogs and “top 5” lists, stressing over details, and worrying about missing something because they don’t know what they don’t know.

This? Is not that.

It’s not Google, it’s personalized.

 

I’m Rachel (they/them), an introverted, queer, AuDHD elopement photographer.

I photograph elopements for all love. For folks who want to get married without pressure or judgment, who want their dream wedding but aren’t quite sure how to pull it off.

Be more than just accepted. Be seen. Be celebrated for exactly who you are. Have an enjoyable experience planning a wedding that reflects you and your relationship. And go somewhere magical to do it.

Welcome home xx

Hire Rachel! We truly cannot endorse them enough. They were friendly and helpful from the start, and incredibly easy to work with. We were on a short timeline, and they came through for us every step of the way, including getting us a permit for our location with short notice. They are thorough, thoughtful, and professional in every aspect of their work. They are an incredibly gifted photographer with a wonderful personality. Finding a photographer that we were comfortable with was a priority for us, and by the day of our ceremony, we felt like we had known them for ages. By the end of our time together, we were in pain from smiling and laughing so much. They truly get to know you individually, and as a couple, so that they are prepared to capture the meaningful moments of your day. Rachel is professional and talented. They are very laid-back and know how to make their clients feel special and comfortable. They genuinely enjoy what they do and will do everything that they can to make sure that you are prepared for and happy with what you have planned for your ceremony. They are so good at what they do that the whole process felt easy. We could not have asked for more of the entire experience.

Rachel had a great way of making us feel comfortable enough to be ourselves and was able to capture who we are as a couple. They communicated well with us about what we were doing next and never pressured us to do anything out of our comfort zone. Not to mention our photos came out GORGEOUS! We got them back quickly and we couldn’t believe the quality. We’ve received nothing but compliments about our photos! If you’re looking for an engagement or wedding photographer I’d hire Rachel, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Rachel was such an amazing photographer for our elopement! We chose Rachel because of their lovely portfolio and they were incredibly easy to talk with during our consultation. On the day of our elopement, they made my husband and I feel very comfortable in front of the camera and captured some beautiful candid shots. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the location we wanted to elope at and helped us with some of the logistics such as the timeline. The weather was definitely not what we were expecting (rainy and very, very cloudy) so understandably we were a bit nervous about how the photos would come out. However, Rachel worked their magic and we honestly can’t stop looking at all the pictures! 11/10 would recommend to a friend.

Taylor + Dominic

Rachel is so easy to get along with and shoots beautiful photos. They obliged our request for traditional family group shots but they really shine when they are alone with her couple. They capture real people in real moments at amazing locations. And if if your location is less then ideal they work their magic to create a stunning final product. Love, love, love them.

Sara + Kayla

Rachel is not only a technically skilled photographer, but a joyful presence to be around. Rachel does a fantastic job of honoring the couples that they work with, meeting your energy and style so your photos feel like you. If you are a couple that feels at odds traditional weddings, Rachel will help you craft an elopement experience that honors and feels like you. From the start of our communication, Rachel was transparent, enthusiastic, and detail-oriented. The planning support, ideas, and recommendations that Rachel provided made our elopement much less stressful and so special. I am so glad we made the decision to work with Rachel!

Julia + Justin

Rachel made our elopement day in Ireland so comfortable and special. They took such great care in scouting our location beforehand and made a last minute change in plan less of a stressor and more of an adventure. The quality of photography is incredible, we can’t imagine our wedding day being captured any differently. Fantastic to work with, highly highly recommend 💛

Mia + Deborah

My wife and I had the most incredible elopement we could have ever imagined. We had an adventure we will remember for the rest of our lives because of them and could not be more thankful and happy.
