Meet your elopement photographer:

Lisa McWhirter.

I'm thrilled to welcome you to the world of adventurous elopements in Iceland!

I’m Lisa McWhirter and I have been calling Iceland home for over three years. Usually, you can find me capturing adventurous elopements on a glacier, surrounded by mountains or feeling the water drops from a waterfall.

With nine years of photography experience: Say goodbye to strict posed photoshoots and hello to candid moments of love and excitement!

My favourite part of elopement is the magic moment when the couple realizes they've made the perfect choice to elope. Seeing that sheer joy and contentment on their faces is what it's all about for me.

See you in Iceland!”

-Lisa

“ She listened to all of our requests and ideas, making us feel valued and heard.”

“ Lisa immediately made me feel at ease with her positive energy and eagerness not only in her photography but sharing her joy of such a beautiful country.”

“ When we found Lisa we hit the jackpot! Everything got easier when planning our Iceland elopement day.”

“ From keeping us warm with hot chocolate and hand warmers to updating us on storms, Lisa went above and beyond.”

“We felt safe, like friends, and like she was really invested in our happiness.”

Comprehensive Planning & Coordination – We've Got You Covered

Eloping in Iceland should feel like an adventure, not a logistical nightmare. From navigating travel plans to securing permits and choosing the right vendors, planning from afar can feel overwhelming. That’s where I come in.

With years of experience and deep local connections, I take care of all the details so you don’t have to. Whether it’s arranging transportation, keeping an eye on ever-changing Icelandic weather, or coordinating with trusted vendors, I ensure your elopement is seamless and stress-free. My hands-on approach means you’ll have expert guidance at every step—from scouting the perfect ceremony location to helping you pack for the unpredictable Icelandic climate.

All you have to do is show up, soak in the beauty, and say your vows. I’ll handle the rest.

What this means to you, besides booking a local photographer:

Planning an overseas elopement can be quite nerve-wracking but Lisa helped ease any anxieties we may have felt.

“Lisa is incredible! Planning an overseas elopement can be quite nerve-wracking but Lisa helped ease any anxieties we may have felt. From bridal floral services to car rental insurance, Lisa was always an email or video chat away to help us plan the most magical day.

While we planned our wedding day photo locations well in advance with Lisa, Iceland had some other plans in store for us! The weather was too intense to go to any of our planned locations so, Lisa immediately pivoted and provided multiple backup locations and safety precautions. We were so impressed with Lisa’s wonderful balance of professionalism and friendliness as she guided us through quite an adventurous day! She constantly checked on our well being and made sure we were warm, happy, and safe every step of the way.

Lisa really went the extra mile to put our day together. She was beyond helpful with reaching out to multiple vendors and referring us to Thordis Flowers, Baked in Reykjavík, and the Hair and Makeup Agency, all of which were gorgeous!

Thank you for not only making our day incredible but also capturing all of the magical moments to be cherished and remembered forever.” - Jess & Alejandro

What truly sets Lisa apart, however, is her ability to make you feel like old friends from the moment you meet.

“From the moment we stumbled upon Lisa's portfolio, we knew we had found someone special to document our elopement. And boy, were we right!

Lisa exudes professionalism in every aspect of her work. From our initial inquiry to the final delivery of our stunning photos, she was prompt, organized, and incredibly attentive to our vision. Her thoughtful approach made us feel heard and understood every step of the way. What truly sets Lisa apart, however, is her ability to make you feel like old friends from the moment you meet. Despite having just met her on our elopement day, she effortlessly blended in, making us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. Her warm demeanour and genuine interest in our story created an atmosphere of comfort and trust, allowing us to relax and be ourselves throughout the entire shoot.

The way Lisa captured our love and connection was nothing short of magical. Every frame reflects not just the beauty of the scenery, but the depth of emotion shared between us. She has an incredible eye for detail, capturing the fleeting moments and subtle gestures that tell our story in the most authentic way possible.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Lisa to capture our elopement. Her professionalism, thoughtfulness, and ability to make us feel like lifelong friends have left us with not just photos, but cherished memories that we will treasure for a lifetime. If you're looking for someone to document your special day with heart and soul, look no further than Lisa. She is an absolute gem in the world of elopement photography.” -Coral & Joshua

Lisa was the best choice we made when planning our trip to Iceland!

“ From the beginning, she was there for us in every possible way. She helped us work through every question and situation that arose before we got there and we were so impressed with her communication leading up to our elopement.

I didn't feel like she was "just" our photographer the day of, we got to know each other in the months leading up and it made our day feel more personal and fun. She helped me feel confident and stress-free too! We really appreciated how knowledgeable she was about our locations and Iceland as a whole, it felt like we had our own personal tour guide and learned so much about the country.

On our day we had some unfavourable weather but Lisa still made it fun, she made the best of situations and it turned out to be an adventure we will never forget. We got our photos back so quickly and were over the moon with how they turned out. We have gotten so many compliments on them. I cannot recommend McWhiter elopements enough - you will be so thankful you chose someone who is great at what they do but also really takes care of her couples. Thank you for making our elopement so special Lisa!” - Nicole & Trevor
