Nice to meet you!
I’m Nelia.
Welcome to my little corner of the world! I’m a wedding photographer with a heart full of passion for freezing those fleeting, joy-filled moments that you’ll want to relive forever. Originally from South Africa, I’ve recently made Madeira Island my home, and I’m beyond excited to share its magic with couples tying the knot here—whether you’re a local or dreaming of a destination wedding.
Since 2010, I’ve been chasing light and love through my lens, crafting photos that feel like a warm hug from your wedding day.
I’m a bit of a documentary nerd at heart—my goal is to tell your story as it unfolds, naturally and authentically.
My mission is to create images you’ll pull out years from now, each one bringing back the butterflies and joy of your big day.
When I’m not snapping photos, you’ll likely catch me at the local coffee shop with a chinesa and pastel de nata in hand—Madeira’s sweetest way to unwind! I’d love to chat about your wedding vision and how we can make it unforgettable. Let’s capture your love story, Madeira-style!
