Japan Elopements & Destination Weddings

An elopement in Japan, photographed slowly.

Your wedding doesn't have to begin and end with a ceremony.

It could be a morning in Kyoto, a train into the mountains, a quiet afternoon wandering through an unfamiliar neighborhood, dinner somewhere you've been dreaming about, and a few hours set aside simply to be together.

I want to photograph the whole experience—not just the part where you officially get married.

Places I’m drawn to

A New Chapter

The Japan elopement experience is currently a developing part of The Style Eclectic.

I'm currently connecting with venues and local creatives to create something thoughtful for couples traveling to Japan from abroad.

If you're considering an elopement in Japan, I'd love to hear what you're imagining—even if you haven't figured out the details yet.
