Top 5 Photographers in Zurich
Here’s what to say about Zurich: it’s a city that’s hard to photograph badly. The light here is clear, the architecture is well thought out, and even the streets look as if an artist designed them. It sounds like a photographer’s dream, until you realize that technical perfection and emotional authenticity are not the same thing. Photographers who succeed here know how to find authenticity in a setting that can easily remain superficial. At Wezoree, we’ve thoroughly analyzed the Zurich market — we’ve reviewed portfolios, assessed their reliability, and looked beyond just the most impressive examples, so here are the five we can truly recommend.

Kuenzli

Born in Ecuador and raised in Switzerland, Melanie Künzli founded Kuenzli Photography together with her sister Emily and now leads and directs it independently. That international background shows in how naturally she connects with multicultural couples — something that has become a hallmark of the studio over fourteen years.
"Spain has my heart. Marbella and Ibiza especially," she says. Her style is modern, real, timeless, and editorial. Behind every project is a reliable team that provides couples with full creative support from start to finish. The studio operates throughout Europe and beyond, specializing in organizing elegant destination weddings, multi-day celebrations, and creating cinematic wedding films.
Tenzi Weddings
Tenzi Weddings has been in the photography field for 8 years; she is especially drawn to locations with rich architecture, textured surfaces, and a sense of history—India’s historic palaces and cultural heritage sites top her list. Her path to this point has been unconventional: no formal education or academic training, just an inner drive toward atmosphere, light, and those subtle details that rarely make it into the frame elsewhere.
"There's a quiet depth in the in-between moments — a glance, a pause, a shift in energy — that can't be staged or repeated," Tenzi says. A distinct cinematic spirit permeates the entire body of work—soft tones, balanced contrast, and a slightly imperfect finish, which Tenzhi considers a distinctive feature rather than a flaw.
Gloria Velvet

Painting, fashion photography, and cinema — these are the references Gloria Velvet brings to wedding photography. She works from Switzerland, specializing in intimate destination weddings and elopements across the Swiss Alps, Italy, and Spain for international couples who choose these locations for their celebrations.
For seven years now, art has continued to shape her vision. Post-processing is important to her; she uses it to highlight the artistic quality of each scene without losing sight of what made that moment worth capturing. “Whether it’s a quiet marriage proposal in the Swiss Alps or an intimate wedding on the shores of Lake Lucerne, I love creating images that feel both deeply personal and visually timeless,” she says.
Alina Smit
Alina Smit's path to wedding photography started in a theatre. She studied choreography, spent years photographing ballet dancers, and somewhere along the way fell in love with movement, light, and the moments between moments. Photography has been part of her life since 2007, with the wedding focus coming in 2016.
She shoots both digital and film, and that combination matters to her work. Her style is editorial, but it never looks stiff. "Being trusted to capture life's most meaningful moments is something I never take for granted," she says. Switzerland and Europe are her territory, with the Engadine valleys and old Tuscan villas among the places she keeps coming back to.
Angelika Dupuis

Angelika Dupuis shoots in Zurich, travels around the world, and combines analog and digital technologies in her work, which gives her photographs a certain quality that’s hard to explain but instantly recognizable.
She is drawn to glamorous, high-fashion weddings, but she never loses sight of the documentary aspect. Unposed moments, true emotions, and a presence at the wedding that guests quickly forget. She also incorporates art direction into the process, combining each couple’s vision with her own experience to give the photos deep meaning. Equally important is that Angelica’s work has been published in top international publications.
Wezoree's honest recommendation: don't hire a photographer in Zurich just because their portfolio looks expensive. Hire someone whose work makes you feel as if you were actually there in the room. What a great photographer brings is what the location alone cannot provide: the instinct to stay still when everyone else is moving, to turn at exactly the right moment, to understand that the image worth capturing is never the obvious one. Any one of the five on this list is an excellent choice. The right one is the photographer whose images you'll come back to again and again, long after the flowers have wilted. Check out the full list on Wezoree — it’s curated, thoroughly vetted, and ready to explore.
