Not only will I help you with choosing the right location, we will also create a customized timeline, together. And ofcourse, I'll capture all of the candid/ special moments. It's what I love to do!

If you love fall (like myself) then this is the perfect time to elope anywhere in the WNY region. September/October are the best months to elope for a fall elopement.

Fall

Spring

Summer is the best time to elope because everything is accessible.

Summer

It's really not spring in Buffalo until April but this is a great season to elope if you want a waterfall elopement in Buffalo.

Winter

Winter is also one of the best times to elope in Buffalo. If you want the winter wonderland vibe then I recommend late November through January elopements.

50 Fun Things to Do on your elopement day

"Hawa really went above and beyond for our photos! She does her research beforehand, even the location, to figure out the best angles and areas. She asked us questions to get a sense of what we liked and wanted and curated a set of poses based upon our answers. This was very nice especially if you're not sure how you want your photos to be. The photos also arrived quickly and were amazing! I really love my photos and it felt surreal knowing that these are the photos I will be looking at years down the line.She's a great photographer who takes their job serious. I would recommend her to anyone!"

"I had an amazing couples photo shoot session with Hawaa! She is so sweet and down to earth when you meet her. Her skills as a photographer are phenomenal as she captures the perfect moments with you and your partner. Hawaa guided us through poses and everything felt so natural as she took the photos. The pictures came out beautifully digitally & on print. I’m very happy with how the whole experience turned out I would highly recommend Hawaa & her talent for photography!"

"I will start off by saying that Hawa is an amazing photographer and person. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and they speak for themselves. She took portrait/couple photos for me and left me speechless. Hawa is so fun, attentive and made my boyfriend and I feel so comfortable and we had an amazing time. Hawa sent us our sneak peak pictures in no time and we were blown away. I would always recommend her even before she took my photos and I promise that will never change. Beyond thankful for these memories I get to hold onto forever. Thank you Hawa for all that you do"
