Lake Como elopement photographer, on the water and on the shore

Just the two of you, the lake and a wooden boat. We photograph couples on Lake Como, from the villa gardens to the open water.

On the boat

A wooden boat is the most beautiful way to see the lake. You leave the shore, the mountains rise on both sides and the light moves with you. For many couples this is the part of the day they remember most.

On the shore

Between the boat rides we photograph at places the lake is known for, such as the gardens and rooms of Villa Carlotta and Grand Hotel Tremezzo. Everything is close together, so the day stays relaxed.

Good to know

Keep an eye on the weather. A boat trip depends on it, so we plan a plan B and a flexible schedule. Our guide Lake elopements and photo shoots: plan for changing weather explains how.

Parking is difficult. If you are not a guest at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, finding a parking space is very hard. Plan your arrival with that in mind.

Planning your elopement

Elopements start from €4,000 plus tax. They include 3 to 6 hours of coverage and travel within Europe, and Dennis photographs every elopement personally. Tell us your date, how many people will be with you and what you imagine. We reply personally and plan the day with you. You can find more about our work on the lake on wedding photographer Lake Como and our general collections on the investment page.

What does an elopement cost?

Elopements start from €4,000 plus tax. That includes 3 to 6 hours of coverage and travel within Europe, and Dennis photographs every elopement personally. Once we know your plans, you receive a clear proposal with no surprises.

Can we combine the photos with a boat trip?

Yes, this is a popular combination. Portraits on the shore and a boat ride on Lake Como work well together.

What if the weather is bad?

The weather matters for the gardens and for the boat. We recommend a plan B and a flexible schedule.

Is parking a problem?

If you are not a guest at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo, finding parking is very difficult. Plan for it early.
