In the world of wedding photography, where every artist finds their unique calling, Ollie Page stands out with a background that beautifully merges her love for nature with a passion for timeless storytelling. “For the past 8 years, I’ve specialized in weddings, starting with coverage throughout Switzerland and later expanding to destination weddings. I love outdoor weddings with mountain views as well as romantic venues in old castles,” he shares. Ollie’s journey began as a teenager, with a camera in hand at the age of 15, and over the years, her craft has evolved into a masterful blend of candid emotion and classic beauty.

An Artful Style Defined by Romance and Vintage Charm

Describing her photography style, Ollie explains, “My style blends romantic wedding and engagement photography with soft tones, details, candid moments, and a timeless, vintage charm.” Each image resonates with a sense of elegance, balanced with a natural and heartfelt feel. Ollie’s images are known for their soft, ethereal quality, where every detail—from a fleeting glance to the subtle textures of lace and silk—tells a story as timeless as the landscapes he so often captures.

The Tools of an Artist

As with any masterful artist, Ollie’s equipment is essential in bringing her vision to life. Relying on a Canon R6 with a 24-70mm lens and a 35mm lens, he captures both wide, sweeping landscapes and intricate, intimate details. He also uses a Sony A IV with a 55mm lens to add depth and versatility to her compositions. “To enhance my lighting capabilities, I use the Godox V1 Pro flash, which helps create beautifully lit images in any setting,” Ollie adds, underscoring her dedication to delivering exceptional images, no matter the location or lighting conditions.

The Magic of Post-Processing

Ollie’s post-processing approach complements her photography style perfectly, enhancing the natural beauty while preserving the authenticity of the moment. “In my post-processing workflow, I focus on enhancing the natural beauty of the images while maintaining an authentic feel,” he says. With subtle adjustments to exposure, contrast, and color balance, he brings out the day’s atmosphere without overshadowing the raw emotions captured in each shot. Every image receives careful attention to detail, light retouching, and sometimes a gentle crop to achieve a harmonious composition.

The Joy of Storytelling Through Photography

For Ollie, photography is much more than just a job—it’s a rewarding journey of connection and storytelling. “Every wedding and event tells a unique story, and I love being able to document those special memories for couples and families,” he reflects. The ability to freeze time and craft memories that couples can treasure forever is a privilege he holds dear. Ollie’s work is defined by the joy he finds in building relationships with her clients, ensuring they feel comfortable and cherished throughout their special day.

From the very first consultation, he delves into each couple’s story, ensuring he knows their preferences and priorities. On the wedding day, Ollie effortlessly combines candid moments with guided poses, creating a gallery of memories that feel both natural and artfully directed.

A Few Words of Advice for Couples

Ollie believes in the power of preparation to capture the most beautiful memories. “Timing is key, so plan your schedule around natural light, especially during the golden hour for the best lighting,” he advises. From choosing a stunning venue to coordinating attire in timeless tones, Ollie encourages couples to think about the details that will create a cohesive and elegant look. “Trusting your vendors is essential. Experienced professionals, from planners to florists, will help ensure that everything runs smoothly and looks perfect,” he emphasizes, adding that a relaxed, happy couple makes for the most memorable photos.

A Love for Destination Weddings

While Ollie’s roots are in Switzerland, her love for destination weddings has taken him to some of the most romantic locales in the world. “Yes, I do destination weddings! My favorite destinations are France and Italy, as I love the romantic landscapes, historical architecture, and the unique charm each place offers,” he shares. Whether capturing a French vineyard at sunset or a classic Italian villa, Ollie finds inspiration in the rich history and beauty of these timeless settings.
