I’M THE PERSON BEHIND THE CAMERA
I’ll guide you through the entire process
My name is Critos, I live in Arusha. I’m a wedding & elopement photographer by day, an event planner and location scout by night. You’d think I’m joking right? I am not. When I’m not photographing weddings, or helping clients plan an elopement- you’ll find me walking to waterfall, or chilling with my laptop editing my clients photos
I’m quite indoorsy and charmingly sarcastic. I can promise you you’ll laugh as much as we’ll create beautiful memories together.
01. SHOULD YOU ELOPE?
People chose to elope for various reasons. I would love to find out why you opted for an elopement vs a traditional wedding ceremony, so we can better plan it.

Weather, seasonality and daylight play a crucial role in how your photos will turn out. We’ll discuss together and confirm the timeline for best results..

If you’re tying the knot abroad, you’ll need to figure out what are the legal requirements and documents you need to prepare to make this happen.
FAQ
Are the travel expenses included in your packages or covered additionally?
If you’re getting married in Zanzibar , there will be no travel expenses applied to your package. Any other locations or abroad are discussed and confirmed individually.
What if we want something more extreme for our elopement?
No activities and locations are off the table. I’m an avid hiker, and used to climbing up hills and clifs to get that perfect shot or beautiful light. If you have a more extrem or unusual idea for your elopement, I’d love to hear it and see how we can bring it to life. The more details you share, the better we can plan it.
We want to include our dog into the elopement ceremony and photos, is that okay?

How long does it take to recieve the photos after the elopement and how will those be delivered?
Around 5 days after your elopement you will receive an online gallery with 40 photo highlights, that you can share with family and friends, post on social media, etc. 2-3 weeks after that you will receive the entire photo collection as well as instructions on how to order prints, choose photos for an album, etc.
Do we need a wedding officiant for our elopement? If yes, can you recommend one?
There’s no wrong or right answer here. Some couples choose to tie the knot legally on their elopement day, others only do it for the photos and take care of the legal paper work before/after. Depending on where you plan to get married, I can definitely share a few recommendations of officiants I’ve worked with before, who are available for travel.
What if we legally don’t get married on our elopement day?
