Elopement Photography
Intimate. Intentional. Wildly You. Documentary- style photography for authentic moments.
Serving Rochester, NYC, Tampa, and destination weddings
Elopements are intimate, heartfelt, and uniquely yours. At Lydia Anne Photography, I specialize in capturing these cherished moments with authenticity and artistry, ensuring your love story is told beautifully.
Let’s Plan Your Day
Hey, I’m Lydia— an elopement photographer, videographer, storyteller, and your go-to guide for intimate 'i do's'.
I’m here for the couples who want something a little quieter, a little freer, a little more you. Elopements are about stripping away the expectations and leaning into connection—whether that’s under a canopy of trees or on the steps of City Hall.
I bring the same heart, intention, and artistry to elopements as I do to full weddings—just with more room to breathe and more space for the magic to unfold.
Let’s chase light, tell your story, and create something wildly beautiful together.

Our Elopement Experience
Intimate |IntentiONal | Entirely You
Eloping is about stripping away the noise and focusing on what truly matters - your connection, your vows, your story. Whether you're exchanging promises on a mountaintop, in your backyard, or across the world, I'm here to document every raw, beautiful, unfiltered moment.
This isn't about posing for the camera or creating a Pinterest - perfect day. It's about movement, emotion, and the quiet ( or wild!) in-between moments that make your love real.
Before the Elopement
On the Day
Afterward
- Choosing the perfect location ( even hidden gems)
- Creating a relaxed timeline that gives you space to be present
- vendor recommendations if you need them
- Permits, logistics, and backup plans (BECAuse nature can be unpredictable)
I'm here as your photographer, hype girl, and calm presence - whatever you need. You'll never feel overly posed or rushed. Instead, i gently guide YOU when needed and let you be yourselves the rest of the time. You'll hike, laugh, cry, dance, or just be still. I'll capture it all- the way it felt.
You'll get a sneak peek within a few days (BECAuse i know you're excited!), and your full gallery will be ready within 4-6 weeks. These images won't just be photos or videos- they'll be a time capsule of how your elopement day felt.

Lydia made sure that she captured every amazing moment at my Syracuse wedding. She was amazing to work with and i would recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing photographer. She is wonderful to work with and communication is easy for any questions you may have. Definitely would love to work with her again!

We couldn't have asked for better. Our wedding venue was a little remote, but Lydia was there before most of our guests! We were looking for a more relaxed, candid sort of photography for the event and from what I've seen so far we're really excited to see the finished editing. She had great ideas for photographs, and I think she did an awesome job incorporating the location (which is very dear to my husband) into the photos. We're very happy we trusted her with capturing our special day.

- Danielle + Sean
Lydia was an absolutely wonderful and fun photographer for our intimate wedding. Prior to the day, she made plenty of time to meet with me to discuss various aspects and prioritize some of our wants. Throughout the day, she was accommodating and went with the flow so easily, counteracting all the anxiety and stress a wedding day can bring!
We are grateful we chose Lydia to capture our wedding
