Winter wedding inspiration

It's no secret we love winter weddings. The dreamy atmosphere, the soft pastel tones, the fluffy cotton flowers, the white, cold and moody light: all of this makes our hearts flutter.

That's why we were more than happy when Sara and Cristiano from Princess Wedding asked to join them in their idea of a winter wedding inspiration in the snowy Alps of Madesimo. A beautiful, adventurous day (walking miles on the fresh snow? Done!), with a great team of wedding vendors, to create a fairytale-like inspiration shooting.

Lisa + Patrick - a destination wedding in Veneto

Sometimes it happens that you meet a couple and you suddenly feel a special bond with them. You know, when you think that if you only lived closer, you'd probably go out for coffee with them.

The first thing Lisa told us was "Oh my god, was that a thunder?". The sweetest bride, with the sweetest fears that her special day could have been spoiled by some unwanted rain. But luckily, after grey stormy clouds, the sun arrived, and their day was exactly as they planned, with one of the most emotional ceremonies we've ever shot, and a couple who got the real meaning of this all: to be in love and to celebrate love with your dear ones. So thank you guys, thank you for having us with you and your welcoming friends, your unconventional families, and all your special mums. 

A volte capita che si conosca una coppia e si senta fin dal primo momento un legame particolare con loro. Quelo che ti fa pensare che se viveste vicini, probabilmente vi vedreste spesso per un caffè.

La prima cosa che Lisa ci ha detto è stata "Oddio, era un tuono quello?". Una sposa tenera, con paure altrettanto tenere che la sua giornata potesse essere rovinata dalla pioggia. Ma per fortuna, dopo nuvole grigie e cielo da tempesta, è arrivato il sole, e la loro giornata è stata esattamente come avevano immaginato, con una delle cerimonie più commoventi a cui abbiamo assistito, e una coppia che ha colto il vero significato che sta dietro a tutto questo: amarsi, e celebrare il proprio amore con le persone più care. Grazie ragazzi, per averci volute con voi e con i vostri amici, così accoglienti e gentili, le vostre famiglie fuori dall'ordinario, e tutte le vostre mamme.

Location: Villa Sesso Schiavo - we got a note for this. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the comfort food we shared, the chatter and the stories, and the feeling of being welcomed into a family. 


Terre Sparse - Food styling and photography

We believe in projects that come from the heart. We believe in people, in brave choices, in hard work, everyday. We believe in those who love the place where they live, and try to make the most out of it. We believe in healthy food, in pretty packaging, and in anything that has been handmade with love.

Today we want to introduce Marta and her organic jams for Terre Sparse, at Agriturismo Cascina Battignana (if you happent to be around San Sebastiano Curone, it's definitely worth a visit!)

Crediamo nei progetti che nascono dal cuore. Crediamo nelle persone, nelle scelte coraggiose, e nel lavorare sodo, ogni giorno. Crediamo in quelli che amano il posto in cui sono nati, e cercano di tirarne fuori il massimo. Crediamo nel cibo sano, nel packaging curato, e in tutto ciò che viene fatto con amore.

Oggi vi presentiamo Marta e le sue marmellate naturali per Terre Sparse, Agriturismo Cascina Battignana (se vi trovate nei paraggi di San Sebastiano Curone, vale la pena farci un salto!)

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.
