Africa Wedding Photography, Engagement Photo Sessions + Elopements
YOU CAN'T STOP LOVE - In recent days, some of our Africa wedding photographer vendors have expressed their desire to accommodate couples who don’t want to wait to be married and are rushing the ceremony.
Many couples have recently discovered that less is more when it comes to wedding planning in Africa, and those small weddings allow them to truly enjoy every aspect of their day. These intimate events allow brides and grooms to be fully present, as they are less worried and intimidated about the sheer size and scope of the day. While they may be planning a sweet and simple Africa elopement, couples still want to have their wedding day documented. It's important to work with a WPJA Africa photographer who specializes in elopements and who understands the unique dynamic of this type of event. The right photographer will capture the events of the day, the atmosphere of the event and the most important details.
The WPJA has an abundance of top-ranked, Africa documentary wedding photographers available right now who understand that some weddings and elopements can’t wait. Find yours today!

Dear Francesca, I asked Simona to thank you from both Francesco and I...but I really want to say it myself too. From my heart, thank you so very much! You are so talented and we absolutely LOVE our wedding photos. You captured our happy day so perfectly. Francesco thinks I am silly because I have been looking at the photographs for hours every day :) During our wedding, several people also commented on your lovely personality and gentle manner too. This made me very proud. Thank you for being professional, for being lovely and for taking incredible photographs. Sei meraviglioso!
