A romantic pre-elopement Photoshoot

Couples photography for kind-hearted humans in Munich, germany

As a couples photographer, every single love story I get to document holds a place in my heart, but some are seriously unforgettable. Spending the morning with Miranda and Hart for their romantic couples photoshoot in Munich was one of those moments! We giggled across the iconic Odeonsplatz and the Hofgarten all morning long. Words can't describe how sweet it was to capture the giddiness and excitement before their wedding day in the alps!



So, what is a Pre-Elopement Photoshoot?

A pre-elopement photoshoot is an intimate session designed to document the journey leading up to your elopement. Unlike traditional engagement shoots, these sessions are designed to have beautiful, timeless imagery in your wedding clothes in a beautiful location!


If you find yourself taking a trip across the world before your wedding or elopement, a pre-elopement/wedding photoshoot is the way to go. It gives you the the perfect opportunity to capture the beauty of the destination while getting dolled up, looking snazzy in your wedding clothes.


For Miranda and Hart, the idea was to create a collection of images that felt natural, heartfelt, and reflective of their decision to elope in Europe, and to have a few photos to their families in Canada!



Locations: Why we chose Odeonsplatz and Hofgarten in Munich

When Miranda and Hart told me they wanted their photos to feel timeless and elegant, showcasing the architecture Munich had to offer. I knew Odeonsplatz and Hofgarten would be the perfect location. They offered everything we needed: historic architecture, natural beauty, and a touch of Bavarian magic.


Odeonsplatz

We started at Odeonsplatz, where the grandeur of the square set the tone for the shoot. The stunning Theatinerkirche, with its bright yellow Baroque facade, and the majestic Feldherrnhalle provided striking visual contrasts to the couple’s soft, romantic style.


Hofgarten

From Odeonsplatz, we wandered into the nearby Hofgarten, a haven of peace and beauty. This Renaissance-style garden offered a softer, more intimate setting.



Exploring More of Munich

If you're heading to Munich yourself, be sure to immerse yourself in its rich history and vibrant culture! Don't forget to visit:


  • Marienplatz: The beating heart of Munich with its stunning Neues Rathaus and famous glockenspiel.
  • Nymphenburg Palace: A fairy-tale destination with opulent interiors and sprawling gardens perfect for a romantic walk.
  • The English Garden: For a laid-back vibe, you can enjoy a picnic or watch surfers ride the Eisbach wave. (Seriously, they surf here!)
  • Traditional Bavarian Cuisine: You can't leave without trying pretzels, schnitzel, and a glass of freshly brewed beer at a local beer garden.
