Jen + Stuart - destination wedding in Lake Como

Jen and Stuart always knew they wanted to get married in Italy, but they couldn't decide where. Surely it must have been a place with mountains, because they love them, but also there needed to be a hint of Tuscan charm, because, you know, it screams Italy.

Luckily, Rossana from The Knot in Italy was brave enough to carry a little bit of Tuscany to the lake, with the amazing flowers from Florence-based flowers designers Jardin Divers  and a stunning table decor with lights all around (happy photographers!) and sweet wedding favors from Pastiglie Leone.

We feel so blessed to be part of events like this one, with the sweetest couples and families, gathered in amazing places - ceremony at Villa Balbianello: yes please! Thank you Jen and Stuart, thanks for the lovely words and smiles, and for having been so relaxed and easy going during your day. And thank you for sharing  your boat to the reception with us: we loved sharing with you your first moments as a married couple.

Phoebe + Craig - Apulian Destination Wedding at Masseria Potenti

For any wedding photographer there are some dream destinations. Our style is airy and full of light, and of course we love to shoot in places where there is no shortage of sun, white reflections and subtle shadows from the trees. Places where the sunsets are enjoyed to the fullest and the people are easy going and welcoming.

An Apulian wedding sums up all of this, so we need to send a big thank you to Phoebe and Craig and to Chic Weddings in Italy who wanted us there with them, in the amazing Masseria Potenti.

Phoebe and Craig are beautiful. No, we mean, really beautiful, like, a gift for any photographer. A sweet Greek girl and a super cool Scottish guy, making the most relaxed and laid back couple - when we first met, on the morning of the wedding, they were in their swimsuits, enyoing the sun and some cocktails and not a bit anxious for the day ahead. As we said, a dream couple.

Enjoy their picture perfect wedding, with an al fresco ceremony, orange flowers and cactuses as a decoration, a true Apulian dinner and wild dances - if you have never seen men in scottish kilts taking part in traditional Greek dances, well, that's your chance.
