WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE PART ABOUT BEING A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?
Making new friendships and travelling to new places. It’s funny, but it’s the essence of being a photographer to me.
How many bookings do you accept per year?
I only accept 30 bookings per year. It means 02~03 bookings per month. I would love to spend more time communicating with couples, continuously learning more about photography, enjoying nature on our beautiful Earth and of course spending more time editing pictures carefully for every elopement/wedding.
WHY SHOULD YOU ELOPE IN VIETNAM?
From all the beautiful landscapes to all the beaches, forests, mountains and deserts in Vietnam. Vietnam would 100% have something that fits your vision for your elopements. I have compiled a blog named “Why you should elope in Vietnam“.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO ELOPE IN VIETNAM?
The best time to elope in Vietnam is when you want to! In all seriousness, it depends on the location you choose. There is no bad time to elope in Vietnam though in many places it can be good to avoid the summer months due to extreme heat or crowds.
WHERE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST LOCATION TO ELOPE IN VIETNAM?
Vietnam has it all gorgeous landscapes from epic mountains, lakes, wildflower fields, rugged beaches, moody forests, and dramatic coastlines to deserts! I have compiled a list of the best places to elope in Vietnam. My country is known for its coasts and beaches, but that’s not all it has to offer. So if you’re having trouble narrowing down a location, you can always get in touch with me and I am ready to help on finding an ideal location for you.
WHAT ARE INCLUDED IN MY PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGES?
My service price includes photography and my travel fees (adjusted based on the destination) in Vietnam or Asia. I’ve averaged out my travel fees and rolled them into my pricing for specific areas.
I can customize your package to fit your expectations. With international packages, you can kindly plus my travel fees and I can do it by myself. Learn more about my elopement and wedding packages here.
WHEN WILL WE GET OUR PHOTOS?
You’ll get a sneak peek within 3 days & the full gallery of your season within 5~6 weeks.
HOW MANY PICTURES ARE INCLUDED?
I don’t promise a specific amount because every wedding is different! But don’t worry. I only get rid of blurry photos, ones where someone is blinking, or if it’s almost the same as another one.
Can you help me find the best-fit VENDORS?
Absolutely! I collaborate with vendors such as M.U.A, Wedding planners, Florists, and Wedding gowns/suits that might be suitable for you. I will give you a recommendation list if you need it. Everything you need for your epic day.
DO YOU GIVE US RAW FILES (UNEDITED) PHOTOS?
I don’t deliver RAW files or unedited pictures in any case. That would be like your cake decorator giving you a blank cake and telling you to decorate it yourself.
DO YOU PHOTOGRAPH WEDDINGS OR JUST ELOPEMENTS?
Yes, I photograph both intimate weddings and elopements and these events include up to 50 guests. See my wedding photography here and elopements here.
How many photographers do we get for my elopement?
Booking with me includes one photographer. After you inquire, I will reach out to you directly and will continue to be your elopement guide from day 1 til the day you get married.
The best thing is, that I have an entire team behind every beautiful elopement. All of us communicate with each other every day and help each other with location scouting, permit research, unique finds on accommodations and hidden gems. Overall, when you hire me, you get all of us.
HOW DO WE RESERVE A DATE?
If you decide I’m the best fit for your day, awesome, reach out to me on my Contact Page. I’ll get on a video call on WhatsApp, Zoom or Facetime to get to know each other and for me to share with you more knowledge, details, and tips.
I figure out the best date for the best weather at your dream location, I’ll prepare a contract to reserve that date right away. Trust me, it is as easy as it sounds.
I can help plan your elopement in as little as a few weeks, but ideally, I like to plan between 06-09 months in advance. Booking early also helps ensure I am available on your preferred date.
HOW CAN I MAKE A DEPOSIT?
All payments can be transferred by TransferWise, Western Union, MoneyGram, Taptap Send or made in cash. I will provide my bank information in the contract.
How Do We Start This Process?
– You should learn all about adventure elopements and destination weddings to decide whether elopement is for you
– Explore stories on real adventure elopements and intimate weddings for inspiration
– Contact me and share with me your story or what your dream elopement looks like
Here Are What We Are Going To Do Next Together:
Initial Phone Call: I will schedule a Video Call on WhatsApp, Zoom or Facetime. I will learn about one another and get all your questions answered.
Reserve Your Date: I will proceed with a contract and a retainer fee when you guys are ready to book so I can save the date for you.
Plan Your Elopement Together: Our job starts the day you inquire. I will recommend an expected timeline, what to pack, and vendors booking for our adventure. With nature being your destination wedding venue and beautiful landscapes as your ceremony backdrops, the possibility is endless. But don’t let these factors overwhelm you with planning your dream elopement.
Photographing your love for one another always comes first, but in order to truly see you and photograph you organically and authentically, I do more than just photography.
Vendor Recommendations: I can provide elopement vendor recommendations. No matter how big or small your elopement is, you’ll probably need more vendors than just a photographer.
For adventure elopements and intimate weddings that require a bit more coordination & design, I have a list of wedding planners I can recommend.
Elopement Day: Let’s adventure, explore, get married, vows exchange, pop champagne, twerk in front of the beautiful nature backdrop, and re-live all those moments over and over again via photographs.
SO, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
