Why couples choose us

More than beautiful photographs

01

A calm experience

Guidance when you need it, without turning your wedding into a photoshoot. Most of the day we are simply there, and you will forget we are.

02

Destination experience

Comfortable working with international couples, travel schedules and unfamiliar venues — including the ones none of us has seen until the week of the wedding.

03

Professional backup

Professional equipment, every frame written to two memory cards at once, and your images backed up off-site within twenty-four hours.

04

Clear communication

Straightforward packages, transparent pricing and a simple booking process. You always know what happens next, and what it costs.

Our promises

What every couple can count on

Nothing is published without your consent

No blog post, no portfolio entry, no social post, no submission to a publication. Your wedding is private by default and stays private unless you write to say otherwise. A non-disclosure agreement is signed on request and at no cost.

You meet your photographer before the day

The photographer on your wedding is the one you spoke to, and if a second is added you are told who they are in advance. Both have read the timeline and know the venue. Nobody learns your names that morning.

A preview in seven days, everything in eight weeks

A preview set within seven days of the wedding, and the complete edited set within eight weeks — four for an elopement. Those are commitments rather than estimates. If we are ever going to miss one, you hear it from us before the date passes.

Your archive is kept, and it is yours

Full-resolution files, a private online archive, and a print release for personal use with no expiry and no territory limit. You are never asked to buy back your own photographs.

Local knowledge

Getting married in Palm Beach?

What matters for your photographs here: the places, the hours and the practicalities — from planning weddings in Palm Beach, not from a travel guide.

Portrait locations

  • Worth Avenue vias. Stucco courtyard passages off the main street, with bougainvillea, tile and wrought iron.
  • The Lake Trail. A path along the Intracoastal side of the island, past gardens and banyans, facing west across the water.
  • Palm Beach Municipal Beach. The public beach in the middle of the island, facing the sunrise over the Atlantic.

The best light

  • December to February. The season proper.
  • March to April. Warm and bright with the humidity beginning.
  • June to November. Hot, humid and the hurricane season.

Popular venues

  • The BreakersOceanfront grand hotel
  • The Flagler MuseumGilded-Age mansion, Whitehall
  • The Colony HotelHistoric hotel, near Worth Avenue
  • The Brazilian CourtHistoric hotel, near Worth Avenue

Good to know

  • The island has an ocean side and a lake side and they light at opposite ends of the day.
  • Many of the clubs here have firm rules about photography on their property and about what may leave it.
  • The Atlantic hurricane season runs through summer and autumn, and a date in it needs a contingency that is written down rather than assumed.

The full Palm Beach guide

Wedding photography in Palm Beach

We photograph weddings and elopements in Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Manalapan and Jupiter — Mediterranean-revival hotels and clubs, oceanfront lawns and waterfront houses on the Lake Worth Lagoon.

The island is narrow, with the Atlantic on one side and the Intracoastal on the other, so one day can use a sunrise over the ocean and a sunset across calm water if the schedule is written for both.

Palm Beach is an island less than a mile wide with the Atlantic on one side and the Intracoastal on the other, which means that within a short drive you have both a sunrise over open ocean and a sunset over calm water. No other destination on this list offers both on the same schedule.

The look is specific and worth leaning into rather than resisting: Mediterranean Revival architecture, coral stucco, banyan and coconut palm, white awnings, and a colour palette that is fundamentally warm. Photographed neutrally it is pleasant. Photographed with its own palette it is unmistakable.

The season runs against the rest of the country’s. The calendar here is at its fullest from December to April, when everywhere north is closed for winter, and the summer is hot, wet and largely empty. That is an opportunity if your date is flexible, and a fact to plan around if it is not.

The best wedding photography locations in Palm Beach

01

Worth Avenue vias

Stucco courtyard passages off the main street, with bougainvillea, tile and wrought iron. Hard-edged shade at the hottest hour of the day.

02

The Lake Trail

A path along the Intracoastal side of the island, past gardens and banyans, facing west across the water. The sunset side of Palm Beach.

03

Palm Beach Municipal Beach

The public beach in the middle of the island, facing the sunrise over the Atlantic. Early morning is the hour, before the heat and the crowds.

04

The Society of the Four Arts gardens

Small themed gardens, a sculpture garden and a banyan, open to the public. Quiet, shaded and good in the middle of the day.

05

Clematis Street waterfront, West Palm Beach

The downtown waterfront across the lagoon, with palms, fountains and the island’s skyline in the evening light.

Popular wedding venues in Palm Beach

Places couples choose between here, and how each behaves for photographs. A list, not a list of partners: we recommend nowhere for a fee.

  • The Breakers

    Oceanfront grand hotel

    Painted ceilings and an ocean lawn, so the interiors and the exteriors are two different centuries. Both photograph well and they want different hours.

  • The Flagler Museum

    Gilded-Age mansion, Whitehall

    A marble entrance hall and a pavilion on the lake side. Operated as a museum, so access is timed and the route through it is defined.

  • The Colony Hotel

    Historic hotel, near Worth Avenue

    Palm-print colour and a courtyard, which is the Palm Beach palette at full strength. Photographed neutrally it is pleasant; photographed for its own colour it is unmistakable.

  • The Brazilian Court

    Historic hotel, near Worth Avenue

    Yellow stucco and enclosed courtyards with fountains, which give shade and even light through the middle of the day.

  • Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach

    Oceanfront resort, south end of the island

    Directly on the Atlantic, so the morning belongs to this lawn; the sunset is across the island on the lake side.

When to marry in Palm Beach, and at what hour

December to February

The season proper. Dry, warm, clear, low sun, and the fullest social calendar of the year.

March to April

Warm and bright with the humidity beginning. Still the best of both.

June to November

Hot, humid and the hurricane season. Frequent afternoon storms, and a real reason the local calendar empties.

The kind of place

  • Mediterranean Revival estates and private clubs, coral stucco and courtyards
  • Oceanfront grand hotels with terraces on both the sea and the lawn
  • Waterfront houses on the Intracoastal, facing the sunset across the water
  • Banyan-shaded gardens, which give usable shade at the hottest hour

Planning a wedding in Palm Beach

  • The island has an ocean side and a lake side and they light at opposite ends of the day. A schedule can use both if it is written to; most are not.
  • Many of the clubs here have firm rules about photography on their property and about what may leave it. We agree those in advance and abide by them.
  • The Atlantic hurricane season runs through summer and autumn, and a date in it needs a contingency that is written down rather than assumed.
  • Afternoon storms in summer arrive quickly and pass quickly. The half hour after one is often the best light of the day.

Most Palm Beach couples book Full Day coverage, from $2,550: one photographer for up to ten hours, with a second photographer available as an addition for a large hotel or club wedding. Couples flying in often choose Destination Wedding, from $3,350, for the full day. Travel and accommodation are quoted separately and itemised at cost, and the exact price comes in reply to your inquiry.

The schedule here can do something unusual that almost nobody uses. The ocean side is best early — the sun comes up out of the water — and the Intracoastal is where the sunset is, a short drive away. A day written for both gives you two entirely different sets from one wedding; a day written for neither gives you a hotel lawn at noon.

A date in hurricane season needs a contingency that is written down rather than assumed. Preview within seven days, the full set within eight weeks, a private online gallery, full-resolution downloads and a personal print release.

More questions about Palm Beach

How much does a wedding photographer cost in Palm Beach?
Full Day coverage starts at $2,550 for one photographer and up to ten hours, which is where most Palm Beach hotel and club weddings sit. Half Day coverage starts at $1,650 for up to five hours, and a full-day Destination Wedding at $3,350. Travel and accommodation are itemised at cost, and your exact quote is sent in reply to your inquiry.
Ocean or Intracoastal for the portraits?
Both, if the schedule allows. The ocean side is best early and the Intracoastal is where the sunset is; a short drive separates them, and a schedule that uses both gives you two different sets from one day.
When is the best season for a Palm Beach wedding?
December to April, which runs against the rest of the country — dry, warm, clear and low sun, with the fullest social calendar of the year. If your date is flexible that is an opportunity; if it is not, summer needs planning around.
How far ahead should we book?
Winter and spring Saturdays at the island’s hotels and clubs go well ahead, often more than a year. Summer dates are much more open, for the obvious reason.
Can we elope on the beach in Palm Beach?
A small ceremony on a public beach is a question for the town, which sets its own rules, and your planner or the Town of Palm Beach will confirm them. The Elopement booking starts at $950 for two hours with one photographer, with location and timing planning and permit help.
What about hurricane season?
It runs through summer and autumn, and a date in it needs a written contingency rather than an assumption. It is not a reason to avoid the months; it is a reason to have the conversation early.
Are the private clubs restrictive?
Several have firm rules about photography on the property and about what may leave it. We agree them in advance and abide by them, and nothing from any wedding is published without your written consent in any case.

Wedding photography in Palm Beach: your questions

How much does wedding photography in Palm Beach cost?

Elopements start from US$950 for one to two hours, a Half Day from US$1,650 and a Full Day from US$2,550. The final price depends on your date, location and coverage, and any travel is itemised at cost — we send an exact quote when we reply.

How far in advance should we book?

Nine to fifteen months ahead is usual for a weekend between May and October, and the most popular dates go first. Weekdays and elopements can often be arranged with less notice, so a closer date is always worth asking about.

Do you photograph intimate weddings and elopements?

Yes — often. An elopement or a wedding of a dozen guests gets the same care as a large one, with coverage from US$950 for one to two hours and help choosing the places and the hour.

Can you photograph weddings at our venue?

Almost certainly. We work at venues across Palm Beach and beyond, and if we have not photographed yours we plan it from the light, the layout and the timeline before the day. Tell us the venue when you check your date.

Do you travel outside Palm Beach?

Yes. We photograph weddings across the United States, the rest of Europe and the United States. Travel is quoted separately, itemised and at cost, so you can see exactly what it adds.

How many photographs will we receive?

It depends on the day rather than the clock: a full day usually comes to several hundred edited photographs, an elopement fewer. We do not set a minimum, because a number becomes a target — everything worth keeping is delivered.

When will we receive our gallery?

A preview within seven days, then the complete edited gallery within eight weeks for a wedding and four weeks for an elopement, with high-resolution downloads and personal printing rights.

Do you require a deposit to book?

Yes. A short agreement and a booking deposit reserve your date, and the deposit is part of the total, not added to it. The balance is due before the wedding.

What happens if the weather changes?

We plan a covered alternative for the portraits with you before the day and adapt the timing on the day itself. Soft rain and cloud can make beautiful photographs; nobody is sent out into a storm.
