Elopement Photography — Perth, Australia + Worldwide

LOVE LIKE A SOFT EXHALE. MAXIMILIST MEMORIES.

{ scroll to discover more }

You’ve chosen your person — the one who knows you inside out, quirks and all, and adores you even more for it. Anywhere with them feels like home, your quiet place.

No fanfare needed. Just the two of you, eloping into a universe of your own making. A one-way ticket: you, me, forever. Only forward from here, no turning back.

Savour it. Milk it. Let loose. Cry, laugh, dance, scream, tease, wander, or just sit and stare at the clouds drifting by. Celebrate your love in real time. Live it.

Nothing to prove, everything to feel. Presence over performance. Lose yourself to the moment and take it all in, knowing they’re yours in this lifetime and the next.

Your memories — locked and loaded, artifacts steeped in meaning. I’ll be right there, holding space for you while capturing it all. Honest yet elevated, nothing staged. Vivid, overflowing with emotion, with a sartorial edge. Yes, obsessed would be an understatement.

OPEN HEARTS, grateful words

Maddison & Sean Cosgrave

“I simply could not recommend Diego enough. We initially reached out to him as we both loved his work and didn’t feel like it was typical ‘awkward’ wedding poses you often see — and he was easily the best decision we made for our city elopement wedding."

Not only did Diego make us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera, he made it fun; we were laughing and just having an awesome time — exactly what we wanted for our day. And we’re absolutely in love with the images we’ve received and still can’t pick our favourites!

He is beyond talented at what he does, and it makes me want to come up with excuses just to keep having photoshoots with him. Thank you, Diego!!

TLDR: Diego is the best photographer; he is everything you will want in a photographer on the day, and what he produces is beyond your imagination. Book him, you’ll not regret it, I promise. ”

“My (now) Husband and I hired Diego for our Elopement, and the whole experience was beautiful."

"Diego met with us beforehand to understand us as a couple, and it really showed throughout the whole day. He was a calming presence and directed us so well, we didn't feel rushed or pressured, and it was super fun. He was able to capture us, not just how the day looked, but how also how it felt.

When we got the photos back, they were better than anything we could have hoped for. We looked so full of love, warmth, and Diego really captured all the quiet little moments that made the day so special to us, but also he has just a really cool style that honestly felt like our photos could have been in a magazine!"

"Diego photographed our elopement/micro wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience and the photos."

From the very start, Diego was incredibly prepared and professional and while we had no idea what we were doing, he he made an effort to to get to know us and understand what we wanted—not just in terms of photos, but in how we wanted the day to feel.

He made us feel completely at ease, was open to all of our ideas, and pulled everything together with his own creative touches in a way that felt natural. He managed to capture so many unique shots that we didn’t even know happened and captured the vibe of the day.Diego was incredibly professional, prepared, artistic and creative while still being so warm and supportive and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him."
