Alexi and Rick, an adventurous couple from Philadelphia, USA, chose Morocco for a romantic and soulful elopement that would reflect their love for nature, luxury, and meaningful cultural exchange. With Swedish American and African-American heritage, their union was a beautiful celebration of diversity, discovery, and shared values.
Pre-Wedding Session in the Marrakech Medina
Their journey began in the heart of Marrakech's historic Medina, where the couple wandered through the vibrant souks and centuries-old alleyways. The energy of the old city, with its rich colors, artisanal textures, and timeless charm, provided the perfect backdrop for their pre-wedding shoot. This experience allowed them to dive into Moroccan culture and capture intimate moments amidst the bustling life of the medina.

Every detail was designed to feel personal and poetic, blending Moroccan influences with modern sophistication.
Tranquil Mountainside Session at Kasbah Bab Ourika
Next, the couple escaped to the serene beauty of the Atlas Mountains. At Kasbah Bab Ourika, they experienced calm and connection with nature, overlooking sweeping valleys and lush gardens. Surrounded by olive trees and the earthy tones of the mountains, Alexi and Rick shared quiet moments of reflection, letting the landscape mirror the grounded, peaceful nature of their relationship.
