- The ceremonyEvery vow, every reaction, every tear in the front row, filmed with the sound of your words.
- Aperitivo and family photographsYour guests by the water, and the family portraits you will want to keep forever.

How We Photograph and Film Your Wedding
My style is editorial and quietly luxurious: real emotion, beautiful light, nothing staged and nothing overdone. When a moment needs a little direction, I guide the light, the composition and the movement. When the emotion is already there, I step back and let it happen.
I have photographed more than 1,000 couples. I also trained in fashion design at Istituto Marangoni in Milan, and as a designer I have shown my work at New York, Paris and Milan Fashion Weeks. That is why I notice how a dress moves, how light falls on fabric, and how one colour can change a whole picture.
Because my husband and I work together, photography and film are planned as one. You get one team, one timeline and one story, in photographs to print and frame and a film to watch on every anniversary.
Wedding Photography and Film Across Lake Como
I photograph weddings all around the lake, at historic villas, private estates and luxury hotels, and I know how the light moves on each shore at every hour. Some of the places couples choose most:
- Villa del Balbianello, Lenno: the loggia, the terraced gardens and the lake on three sides. Read my Villa del Balbianello wedding guide.
- Villa Balbiano, Ossuccio: an exclusive-use estate for a whole wedding weekend. Read my Villa Balbiano wedding guide.
- Villa Monastero and Villa Cipressi, Varenna: lakeside gardens and the evening light of the eastern shore. Read how to choose between them.
- Bellagio and Villa Melzi: gardens along the water at the heart of the lake.
- Tremezzo, Cernobbio and Como: grand hotels and the large event villas.
- A private boat: the most cinematic twenty minutes of the day, on the water.

Planning Together Before the Wedding
- The timeline. I work with you and your planner so the ceremony, the portraits and the dinner fall in the best light, not only at the right time.
- The places. Which corners of your venue to use, when, and whether a few minutes on a boat are worth adding.
- The people. Your list of family photographs and the guests who matter most, so nobody is missed.
- A plan for rain. Grey days on the lake are soft and romantic, as long as there is a covered space for the ceremony and time for portraits when the rain stops.
