Zayra + Luis - Venice intimate wedding sneak peek

We just came back from Venice with tons of beauty to fill our eyes with.

A very intimate wedding (9 guests!), between a music star and the love of her life, with their sweet baby girl dressed like a baby bride. Plus, we had the pleasure to work with a truly gorgeous team who made us feel at home.

Sorry for the cliché sneak peek picture, but we are still soooo excited for our gondola tour, and so happy for all the beauty that comes with this work. 

Thank you Venice Wedding, thank you Ema and Irene.

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.

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.

Flowers: Il Profumo dei Fiori

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. 


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.
