Martina, without taking away anything from the others, is absolutely the bride with the sweetest smile of 2022. Definitely. When we met at my studio she was so shy and worried about the overcome of the shooting, she did not feel so confident with the camera, neither Michele. We agreed for some time together before the wedding for a couple shooting I gifted them, this way they could get to know me as person, and gain in comfort. We took […]
Do you believe it is possible to tell a tale without showing the faces of the main characters? Guess what, it is! Laura and Giampiero got married in a hot August day. Their wedding was marked with so many children’s smiles and toddlers running everywhere, also their beautiful kids, so the couple asked me to respect everyone’s privacy and avoid posting on line any of the photos taken. You can imagine that as a photographer, showing what I do means […]
Federica and Enrico, two beautiful souls. In some aspects Federica is quite similar to me, about myself I say I’m kinda “rustic”: no smooches, thank you! It doesn’t mean we don’t care, in fact Federica agreed not to kill me on their wedding day, because I’d ask them to kiss, hold and whatever! They got married in Castiglion Fiorentino, right in the middle between Arezzo and Cortona, at the Collegiata Church which deserves a visit if you are in the […]
And now let’s meet Elana and Alan! Elana’s mother, Cynthia, wrote me some months prior the wedding, using my Google page. We agreed on needs and terms and it was already August, ready for her daughter’s to marry the man of her life. The families flew from the US for this intimate event, that took place at Il Rifugio, a little jewel above Cortona’s hills, where I’ll be again in some months for Samantha and Ethan’s wedding. It is a […]
From the Netherlands to Italy! Edwina and Jordy came to Italy for their rustic wedding with their twins and their relatives around Europe. Yes, around Europe and guess what? Mariet, Edwina’s sister, is running her own business here in Arezzo. She owns a beautiful b&b, La Loccaia, a few minutes driving from Monte San Savino, where the reception took place, and it was very nice, since it really was an intimate moment between family. They had an intimate wedding celebrated […]
Do you know what happens when you have a wedding? Anxiety rises just like the tide and I don’t deny it, it is probably one of the engines that keep me focused for most of the day. When the groom is the person you speak to in first place and it is a colleague, oh well, performance anxiety runs even faster! But that’s it, you get the job and perform at your best. Emanuela and Emanuele, just like Michela and […]
Nothing much to say about Eva and Marco: I love them! We met three years ago, when Eva was pregnant with Nicola, their beautiful child (nevermind, he’s going through the terrible 2!) and I got to photograph them almost at the end of the pregnancy. We met again when Nicola was 4/5 month for a family shooting at their place and after some time Eva called me because they made up the decision to marry. They chose the 16th of […]
A long and hot day to tell their story! Alex and Madde came from Sweden and chose the perfect location for their wedding: Borgo Studiati, an ancient villa located in San Giuliano Terme, an amazing area between Pisa, Lucca and Florence. The day began quite early, but that was good, so I had enough time to take care of both this beautiful couple who I met only the day after at their welcome dinner in Villa Alta, and all the […]
Daniele and Victor. Oh. My. God. Another long waited wedding! Daniele is Italian, Victor is Brazilian and they live in Berlin. The wedding was supposed to take place in September 2020, but Victor didn’t want to proceed, at least until he could’ve shared this important day with his family coming from Brazil. And it was June the 12. Yes, two weddings in a row. Quata Country House as frame of this big day and Chiara Landucci as conductor. But, let […]
Chiara and Massimiliano are one of those couples that had to postpone the wedding due to pandemic. Chiara is from Milan and when she contacted me the first time to check my services, she told me her fiancè’s family lives in Arezzo and they were getting married here, in a beautiful venue in Casentino’s hills. But then we all know how it went and they postponed the wedding to 2022, just because organizing a full wedding without the possibility to […]
