Meet your guide
and photographer
An eternal wanderer. A lover of real conversation, genuine people, and intimate stories.
Hey, I’m Amber. This page is the long version of who I am, what I believe in, and why I do this work. Pour a tea, get comfortable, and let’s begin.
When you find “the one”,
you’ll know
Deep into your heart. Into your bones. Into your soul.
I’m a true romantic at heart, and I believe love has no limits. This is why I’m constantly looking for it: in the way you look at each other, hold hands, smile. In the way you push her hair from her face, or the way she runs her fingers through your beard. I love watching that, with all the patience, passion, and story that brought you here today, on top of this mountain, by the shore of that lake, or in the glow of a sunset on that beach.
Love has no limit, and I’m endlessly passionate about it. I’m passionate about you, and about what brought you here today.
Being an elopement photographer has always been a dream come true, and I can’t wait to chat with you about your vision, and help you imagine your wildest dreams for this day that should celebrate you, and only you, as a couple.
Your love matters. Your story matters.
And your love deserves to be celebrated.
Because this is what our world needs: love.
I live life as an adventure, always on the go
I have a beautiful and wild child called Rune (yes, like the magic runes), and she is my everything. I still can’t believe I get to call “work” what I love doing the most: photographing people on one of the most vulnerable and amazing days of their lives, in beautiful places I’m happy to call home for 24 hours. Or a little more, sometimes.
Single mum of a wild soul
I’m a proud single mum to my incredible daughter, Rune, whose strength and resilience inspire me every day. Our journey hasn’t been easy. We’ve walked through challenges that led me to step away from a harmful relationship, to build a safe and loving environment for her. Every decision I make is to protect her joy, her light, and her boundless curiosity about the world. Together, we’ve built a life filled with adventure, love, and the quiet moments that remind us how far we’ve come.
Fun facts about me
I’m a nature-loving adventurer who’s always chasing magical sunsets and epic landscapes, think the wild cliffs of the Faroe Islands, or the serene, otherworldly plateaus of Patagonia. When I’m not planning epic elopements, I’m dreaming about my next escape with my daughter. And there’s always room in my heart, and in the welcome packages, for furry friends, because pets deserve a little adventure too.
Who said two cats and two (tiny) dogs is too much?
The best off-the-beaten-track tables, on me
All the destinations I offer have some incredible food to try, and I’m here to take your hand and visit the best off the beaten track restaurants, to eat the most delicious food you’ll ever have.
A space of genuine peace, for every couple
My neurodivergence allows me to create spaces of genuine peace, acceptance, and zero judgment for every couple I work with. Honestly, I’m convinced it’s my greatest strength.
- I’m a tasty breakfast kinda girl
- I could stare at a map for hours
- I have a secret dream of planning the first elopement in space
- I geek out over finding the perfect location that nobody knows about yet
- I genuinely believe sunsets are magic, and I’ll never stop chasing them
- I don’t swim in the ocean, because I’m terrified of sharks
- I rewatch the Lord of the Rings trilogy every year
- My favourite food ever is melted cheese
- I swear. A lot.
Your elopement supports these causes

Honest about the cost of adventure
At Zephyr & Luna, I embrace a candid perspective on travel and its environmental impact. I’m aware that travel contributes to the emission of harmful gases and affects our beautiful planet. I don’t shy away from this truth, nor do I indulge in greenwashing.
Yet I also recognise the profound personal growth and discovery that comes from exploring new places.
Experiencing a sunset in a distant land, feeling the rhythm of another time zone, or touching the waters of a foreign shore can be transformative. It’s about seeing the world, understanding different cultures, and finding where you fit into the broader tapestry of life. I celebrate this journey of self-discovery and the unique stories each traveller writes along their path. I’m honest about the impact of this industry, and committed to minimising it without pretending to be something I’m not.
Here’s how I actively reduce my footprint:
- I donate to impactful causes (see above), because financial support provides essential resources
- I prioritise partnerships with local vendors, to sustain regional economies
- My team and chosen vendors receive far more than livable wages and comprehensive benefits, encouraging local and sustainable consumption
- I champion mental health awareness, fostering a workplace where everyone is seen and heard
This is my approach to travel: unfiltered and responsible. People, earth and nature are all part of one ecosystem, and it’s on us to protect that balance, whenever we can. This is not only “the world.” This is our world. And it’s up to us to make it beautiful.
You show up.
I handle the rest.
If any of this feels like home, let’s talk about your elopement, your story, and where in the world we should tell it.
