WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILMS AS THE PERFECT BLEND BETWEEN EDITORIAL & CINEMATIC STYLE

THIS IS WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT MY WORK:

Gloria was a dream! We planned our wedding in Switzerland at relatively short notice and working with her was very professional and a wonderful experience.Before we booked her, she took a lot of time to get to know us personally in Zürich, and to answer all of our questions. It was very important to us that there was chemistry between our wedding photographer and us, as we only wanted positive vibes on our wedding day, and with Gloria, that was 100% the case. We had so much fun and a wonderful time during the pre wedding photoshoot. And on the wedding day it was as if a longtime friend had accompanied us. She took the most beautiful wedding pictures (more beautiful than I ever dreamed of), she was highly reliable, a very professional photographer and overall I recommend her to anyone and for any occasion! She really takes a lot of time for advice, for processing and is a real gem! I feel so lucky to have her as our wedding photographer.

Gloria was in our wedding in Zurich Switzerland last year in July and we are so happy to have found her. From the first moment we met her, everything felt right. she is such a lovely, attentive person. We told her about our wishes and picture ideas and she really created everything exactly as we dreamed.

Thanks to her, we have beautiful photographs of our wedding that we will always enjoy looking at. The best wedding possible. You can tell, she loves her job very much and everything she does is so creative and professional. We will always choose her in the future when we are looking for a photographer and can highly recommend her and her photography to everyone!

M+M came from the US to elope in the beautiful swiss mountains. The special blue of its lakes, the breathtaking alps and the typical spring fog are the perfect combination for their everlasting memories in the form of pictures. Thanks a lot for trusting me for your adventure!

Hello there! Trying to get back to publishing a bit more, since my visibility must be almost dead! I have so much to share, but let’s start with some pics of this cute couple who ended up eloping in Milano! Y+G looked amazing walking the main touristic places of a city I always loved. Thanks again for having me to portray those memories of this new stage in your lives ♥️

One of the most exciting elopements I’ve ever captured in 🇨🇭: A+J decided to go to the Jungfraujoch to celebrate their love! We got on a helicopter from @airglaciers_oberwallis and enjoyed the stunning views before reaching the summit, where they said their vows and promised to stay together in a beautiful and intimate ceremony!

So grateful to have lived this wonderful experience with this lovely couple, can’t wait for the elopements that this season will bring!

I want to introduce you probably the bravest couple I had the priviledge to shoot 🤍. They managed to stand under a snow storm, in the freezing weather, with their beautiful outfit and still posed for the pictures! Thank you guys for having me portraying your memories from your stay in Switzerland

Probably one of the most popular spots in Switzerland: Zermatt and the Matterhorn. This cute couple came from Singapore seeking snow and mountains for their pictures in front of the iconic Matterhorn. It’s always so nice to meet such lovely people from every part of the globe, thanks again @jasery for choosing me for your winter wedding photoshoot 🤍

Thanks @flor_bustos_makeupartist for your impecable work, like usual!

Engagement photoshoot in Switzerland 🇨🇭
I love scouting and hiking to new places to find amazing backgrounds for my job, but what I love the most is meeting every couple that comes to Switzerland to elope, get engaged or have a couple photoshoot. I love caring for the memories that they will take back to their countries, to share with their relatives and friends, and I love hearing their love and life stories. Both cloudy and sunny days can be magical, but grey foggy days have something romantic about them that I love above all!

This photoshoot was so beautiful and the couple was so cute and sweet, I can’t wait to share more from this day! Thanks Andrea and Jaydee for letting me capture this beautiful moments for you! It was great meeting you! ♥️

Eloping in Autumn in Switzerland can be challenging in terms of weather (it can easily rain or be cold, especially in November) but the colors are so wonderful that the cold weather is absolutely worth it!
