There’s a certain poetry to getting married at Villa Campari with a proper Aperitivo running through the day this 19th-century villa in Sesto San Giovanni was once the Campari family’s own residence, and the spirit of the place (pun very much intended) is still all over it: elegant halls, a touch of Italian design history,...

Matteo and Tecla got ready at home in Novate Milanese, their young child right there with them through the morning that particular kind of chaos and warmth that comes with a wedding day that’s also just another day in a family’s life. From there, the ceremony was held at the Madonna in Campagna church in...

Some weddings feel personal before you even pick up the camera. Andrea is the son of a friend of my wife’s, and he lives just down the road from me in Paderno Dugnano Barbara grew up close by too, near the Parco delle Groane in Cesate. This one was very much a home game. After...

This one started as a message out of nowhere. A guy from Paris reached out to me online with a plan that, at first, I honestly thought might be a prank: fly his girlfriend out from France to Italy, under a cover story, and propose to her at sunset in front of both of their...

Castello di Frassinello has been standing over its corner of the Monferrato hills for close to a thousand years, and it still carries that weight stone courtyards, a centuries-old mulberry tree anchoring the center of the grounds, and a little octagonal chapel tucked inside its walls.

Abbazia di Santo Spirito, in Comignago, is one of those rare venues that lets you shoot an entire wedding getting ready through to the last dance without ever leaving the grounds. A medieval abbey turned wedding location, with a consecrated private chapel dating back to 1282 and a secular park that still carries a real...

Some weddings bring two families together. This one brought two cultures together, and the result was one of the most layered, genuinely joyful days I’ve filmed. Alessandro, Italian, and Umasha known to everyone as Umi Sri Lankan, got married at the church of San Cristoforo sul Naviglio, right along Milan’s Navigli, before heading to Officine...

October on Lake Como isn’t supposed to feel like summer, but for Ned and Jazzy’s wedding, it did anyway an unusually warm day, with that particular autumn light that’s softer and lower than anything you get in July, and arguably more flattering for every single shot of the day. Ned Balme, a television personality back...

Villa del Balbianello doesn’t need an introduction for most people even if they don’t realize it. It’s the villa from Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and the one where James Bond recovers in Casino Royale. Getting married there means getting married on a film set that happens to also be one of the most...
