Your wedding in Italy, seen by someone who lives here.

I know the places

Villas in Tuscany, palazzi in Venice, lakeside terraces, masserie in Apulia: I've worked in them in every season and know where the light falls and when.

Unposed and unobtrusive

Guests tell me they barely noticed the camera. I stay close, stay quiet and let the day happen.

Made for travelling couples

I work in English, Italian and French, coordinate with your planner and venue, and handle the logistics so you don't have to.

Frequently asked.

Why hire a photographer who knows Italy?

Italian weddings have their own rhythm: late ceremonies, long dinners, villas with tricky light and venues with local rules about where you can shoot. I live in Bologna and have photographed in Tuscany, Venice, Lake Como, Apulia, Sicily and the Amalfi Coast, so I know when the light is best and how to plan the day around it.

Do you travel for destination weddings?

Yes. I'm based in Bologna and travel across Italy and worldwide. Flights, accommodation and local transport are quoted separately from the photography and added to your proposal, so there are no surprises.

How far in advance should we book?

Most couples book 9–14 months out, especially for May–September and popular locations. I'm currently booking 2027 and 2028, and if your date is closer, reach out anyway.

What does the coverage include?

Full-day coverage, up to 10 hours, shot personally by me, from the first preparations to the first dance. Every image is edited and delivered in high resolution through a private online gallery. A second photographer is available on request for larger weddings.

How many photos do we receive, and when?

Typically 500–800 fully edited images for a full day. A preview arrives within a week of the wedding and the complete gallery within 6–8 weeks.

Can you work with our wedding planner?

Absolutely. Many of my weddings are organised with Italian and international planners, and I'm used to coordinating timelines, venues and families speaking different languages. I work in English, Italian and French.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on the location, the length of coverage and travel, so I quote each wedding individually. Send me your date and venue and I'll reply with a tailored proposal within 48 hours.
