Elopements that feel like poetry — effortless, intimate, and wildly you.

Your love story deserves to be felt — not just seen. I create cinematic, heart-led imagery for couples who crave adventure, beauty, and meaning. My work is rooted in the untamed magic of Costa Rica — the golden beaches of Santa Teresa, the jungle quiet of Nosara, the lush Nicoya Peninsula — and flows across Europe’s most romantic landscapes: Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Greece. And for those drawn to the edge of the world, I also capture love stories in Iceland — where waterfalls thunder through moss-covered cliffs and the light feels almost otherworldly. Whether barefoot on a cliffside or wrapped in silk beneath ancient olive trees, I’ll capture your day with intention, artistry, and emotion — the wild, the sacred, and everything in between. Cinematic photography and personalized planning for couples who want their day to feel like an experience — not a production.

A day that feels like you — wild, beautiful, and free.

Imagine waking with the sound of waves and sunlight spilling through your window. You share coffee, laughter, and the soft quiet before the day begins. You walk hand in hand toward your ceremony — wind in your hair, salt on your skin, your vows echoing against the sea. Later, there’s champagne and dancing barefoot in golden light, or a slow dinner under the stars — no timelines, no stress, just presence. This is what it means to elope: intention, freedom, and love — captured in artful, cinematic detail.

Hi, Im malin

I’m a destination photographer and storyteller capturing love where wild landscapes meet soulful connection. Based in Costa Rica and often found between Europe and the U.S., I’m drawn to light, movement, and emotion — the quiet in-between moments that say everything. My work blends fine art composition with a natural, intuitive approach. I’ll guide you gently when needed, then step back to let the real magic unfold — the wind, the laughter, the stillness.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me in the ocean — surfing, exploring new coastlines, or chasing golden light through the jungle. That sense of adventure is woven into everything I create. I want your day to feel alive — grounded in nature, full of movement, and uniquely yours.
