Miami, FL Wedding Photographer & Filmmaker

Beach ceremonies, ballroom evenings, and light that forgives nothing and rewards everything — Miami weddings keep us on our toes.

Photographing weddings in Miami

Miami means planning for sun that is gorgeous and unforgiving — we schedule ceremonies for the soft hours, scout shade for portraits, and treat an afternoon storm as intermission, not catastrophe.

Elizabeth Scott is a national studio: senior photographers and filmmakers, travel already included, and a calendar kept deliberately small so every wedding gets a first-team crew. If we haven’t worked your exact venue yet, we scout it before your day — light, timing, logistics — so nothing about Miami surprises us on the morning of.

The light in Miami

Ceremony time decides how your photographs look, and the answer is different in Miami than it is three states over. In June the sun sets here at 8:14 PM and golden hour opens around 7:40 PM; by October sunset has slid back to 6:54 PM — a swing of 1 hour 20 minutes across one wedding season. Start a Miami ceremony at roughly the times below and you will finish vows, family formals, and portraits with the good light still in front of you rather than behind you.

Where couples marry in Miami

These are the Miami venues couples ask us about most. We have not shot every one of them — nobody has — so when a venue is new to us we scout it before your date: light through the ceremony hour, where formals hold up, how long the walk from getting-ready to first look actually takes.
