BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT HELGA

Hi, I’m Helga — a destination wedding and elopement photographer based in Europe, capturing bold love stories along the Amalfi Coast, Positano, Ravello, and beyond.

For 25+ years, I’ve turned real moments into timeless imagery. My work blends cinematic storytelling with a natural, editorial feel — and my signature approach? All heart, all fun, all you.

Whether I’m photographing a surprise proposal by boat in Capri, a luxury wedding weekend in the Austrian Alps, or barefoot vows at sunrise in Ravello, I show up with creative direction, warm energy, and the eye of someone who truly loves what she does.

Clients always say the same thing after our session:

“That didn’t feel like a photo shoot — it felt like we were floating.”
And it shows. My galleries are filled with real emotion, golden light, and that can't-stop-smiling kind of magic.

When I’m not shooting, I’m in my rose garden, sipping Prosecco, or dreaming up my next creative project — but no matter where I go, my camera’s with me.

If you're looking for a luxury wedding photographer in Italy who will hype you up, handle the details, and deliver drop-dead-gorgeous images that feel like memories — I’m your girl.

Let’s make magic.

Something Beautiful

Beauty is just the beginning — I’m here to craft imagery that moves you.
Whether it’s a cinematic bridal portrait, a multicultural wedding celebration, or an editorial elopement on the Amalfi Coast, my work is rooted in emotion, storytelling, and timeless elegance.
I’m based in Germany and available for weddings, portraits, and elopements across Europe — from the Alps to Amalfi. With thoughtful direction and soulful editing, I don’t just capture how it looked — I help you feel it again.
Let’s create something bold, beautiful, and unapologetically you.
