Getting married in Copenhagen

Copenhagen is the most popular place in Denmark for international couples, with its canals, old streets, royal gardens and historic buildings. Many couples marry in a civil ceremony at a city hall and then spend time exploring the city for portraits. It is easy to arrive with a small group, or only the two of you, and still have a full, beautiful set of photos.

How it works with me

I am based in Copenhagen, so I know its streets, harbour and gardens well. We start with an online video call, so we get to know each other and plan the day, even if you are still abroad. I suggest locations and timings based on your ceremony, the season and how much walking you would enjoy.

My packages always include the photoshoot at agreed locations with an assistant if needed, the editing of the photos and an online gallery to download and share with family and friends.

Ideas for your Copenhagen photos

  • Historic streets and harbour: the old town and the waterfront give colour and atmosphere.
  • Parks and gardens: quiet green spots away from the crowds are perfect for calm portraits.
  • Early or late: going out early morning or after the ceremony in the evening means fewer people and softer light.
  • A slower pace: even with a short ceremony, a relaxed portrait walk afterwards turns the day into a real story.
