THROUGH CINEMATIC STORYTELLING
Switzerland ELOPEMENT Photographer
Experience sharing your vows amidst the most breathtaking backdrops in Switzerland
Elopement Photography Rooted in Storytelling, Simplicity and Soul.
At Story Of Your Day, we understand that eloping isn’t about compromise – it’s about choosing intimacy over tradition, and crafting a day that reflects your story, not anyone else’s.
“Emma made the entire experience of our elopement extremely special”
“It’s not about a transaction. It’s an experience”

Specialists in the Jungfrau REgion. Storytellers across Switzerland
Story Of Your Day Creative Director Emma Wilson photographs and films elopements across the Swiss Alps, from Lake Geneva to St. Moritz.
But as specialists in the Jungfrau Region, our local knowledge runs deep. Based in Wengen, we know the best light, the hidden trails, and the quietest spots throughout Lauterbrunnen, Mürren, Grindelwald and beyond.
Whether you’re exchanging vows above the clouds or beside the still waters of Lake Brienz, we document your day with a calm, confident presence and a trained storyteller’s eye.
We offer authentic, editorial-style elopement photography across Switzerland, creating timeless images that feel personal yet extraordinary.

Why Photography Comes First. And How We Help Plan It All
For most couples, choosing a photographer is the first step in planning their elopement. But with Story Of Your Day, you get more than photography. You get full support in creating an experience that’s thoughtful, seamless, and unforgettable. And, if you want a film capturing your story, then look no further.
We offer a complete planning service for elopements across Switzerland, with a focus on nature and adventure elopements in the Jungfrau Region. From permits and timelines to locations, logistics, and trusted local vendors, we help you plan a day that flows naturally and reflects who you are.
Our photography is shaped by how your day unfolds and we help shape that day with care and intention from the very start.
But I’m more than your photographer. I’m also your guide.
Living in Wengen year-round gives me unrivalled access to this region – not just the scenery, but the hidden spots and local experiences most visitors never discover.
Enjoy a private picnic with panoramic views over the Lauterbrunnen Valley. Sip fresh milk straight from the cow. Sample local alpine cheese. Ride through farmland on a tractor tour with a local farmer.
This isn’t a just a photoshoot it’s a chance to immerse yourself into real alpine life.
And if you’re dreaming bigger? I’ve got you covered. From helicopter landings on remote glaciers to private gondola access and luxury alpine hideaways, my network ensures your experience is unforgettable – and uniquely yours.
Eloping is like choosing the scenic route
to happily ever after …
Photography and Film. A unique, Seamless offering
And for couples wanting both photography and film, this is where we truly stand apart.
As a highly sought-after international wedding videographer, I create films that are story-driven, personal and entirely unique. Nothing outsourced. Nothing formulaic.
While many photographers offer video as a basic add-on, the films I create are carefully crafted, cinematic time capsules that match the quality and emotion of your photography.
Your elopement film won’t be a generic highlights reel. It will be a soulful, story-led piece of art that’s exclusive to Story Of Your Day.
And because I offer both services in-house, our combined photography and videography packages offer exceptional value without compromising on quality

Marriam + Tayab
The Jungfrau Region, Switzerland
Our experience with Emma and Story Of Your Day was nothing short of magical. Emma went above and beyond to capture our special moments, meticulously planning every detail to perfection. What made this experience genuinely unforgettable was the way she welcomed us into her world, making us feel like we had always belonged. We didn’t just find a talented photographer and planner, we found a wonderful new friend. We couldn’t recommend Emma more highly. See you at the next event!
Natalie + William
Intimate Wedding at The Falken, Wengen
Emma is absolutely brilliant! She may be the fairy godmother in disguise with how much magic she was able to weave throughout the entire wedding planning and operation. We got a perfectly planned wedding, a beautiful venue, videography, photography, and a stunning appearance by the fantastic folks from the Trychler Club of Wengen (these guys were awesome), but best of all is that my wife and I feel like we got new and wonderful friends in Emma and Fabian!
Kat + DMETREY
Wengen and Interlaken, Switzerland
“Emma made the entire experience for our elopement extremely special and the way she portrayed the video was unlimited times of reliving the experience.
It is truly priceless. She has all the connections you could ever dream of and coordinated some extraordinary moments because of that. In such a busy country full of tourists we had the utmost privacy with breathtaking views.
I cannot say enough good things about Story of Your Day. If you want to have the most intimate, special occasion and relive it as many times as you want- EMMA IS THE ONE YOU WANT!!!”
