Here I’ve collected my favourite wedding stories from 2024 and 2025. Each one became a small adventure for me.
Every project pushed me forward and left a deeper layer inside me. I still don’t want to stop looking at the world with fresh eyes. This archive is my way of sharing that journey.

American Spirit on Lake Como
This was one of my first shoots on Lake Como, and first places always hit differently. The morning started at Villa Serbelloni with a fashion-forward mood, then we moved by boat to Villa del Balbianello, an 18th-century villa set on a lush peninsula on Lake Como, which later became my favorite place on the lake.
Victoria, AJ, and their friends brought a very American vibe. Cocktails, cigars, crazy party mood, and that wild, genuine energy I had only seen in movies or 90s GQ party editorials.
David Pastrnak is an absolute NHL superstar, and you could feel it from the first second. He was surrounded by a strong circle from his hockey world, and the whole day carried that leader energy.
David and Rebecca had a stunning ceremony inside the historic St. Stephen’s Cathedral, followed by a beautiful dinner on the terrace of the iconic City Lodge.
The wedding had that perfect island rhythm, full of summer light, sea air, and fresh blooming decor. And then, in the middle of the party, a huge summer rainstorm hit. But it only made everything better. The party didn’t stop, it went fully off, and that sudden chaos felt exactly right for the energy of this wedding.
The old Italian atmosphere of Tenuta Salviati, with its historic rooms, patterned interiors, heavy textures, deeply inspired my indoor fashion portraits. The bride’s Monique Lhuillier gown, with delicate 3D floral lace appliqués, contrasted beautifully with the villa’s heavy historic aesthetic and amplified the clash of eras.
The couple brought me in for fashion-forward portraits in a loosely editorial style, alongside the key candid moments of the wedding day. My main focus was to bring my own artistic vision and capture these moments in my signature style.
I was impressed by the beauty of Villa Cipressi. Its clean classical architecture blends with exotic botanical gardens cascading down toward the edge of Lake Como, giving the place that fantasy movie set feeling.
Mallika and Ashwin were stunning, authentic, and deeply in love. Villa Cipressi only amplified their vibe
The ceremony took place under a canopy of old trees, quiet and intimate, with a panoramic view over the lake.
I shot this day alongside Roman Ivanov. While Roman was photographing Mallika, I took the lead on Ashwin’s portraits. He was totally open to experimenting, so we pushed the portraits into a more cinematic fashion mood, with stronger attitude and more of his own character.
What I love most about this wedding is the dichotomy of style.
The day started with a low-key Ritz Paris mood, a touch of old-fashioned elegance, quiet formality, the first look, and the ceremony. But in the evening, the couple changed looks, loosened up, and the wedding moved into a real party mood. That’s where we leaned into a 90s GQ and Y2K fashion vibe, with more flash, more attitude, and more freedom. Honestly, I would shoot like this all day.
They were incredibly beautiful and authentic, almost like movie or stage stars. Photographing them felt like a pure exchange of energy between us. Their vibe, my vision, and Ritz Paris... It was sick.
The scale of Villa Erba is just insane. Grand halls. Red-carpet staircases. Majestic old-world architecture. You step in and it’s pure Hollywood sets and fashion week energy. Yet for Shaz and Preston, it felt exactly right. Their wedding carried a deep personal narrative rooted in family presence, heritage, and grace.
Tiffany & Christopher moved through the day with natural ease. They brought their cultural heritage into this iconic Villa Pizzo wedding without forcing anything, giving the whole story a quiet, low-key intimacy.
They chose a classic old-fashion mood that suited them perfectly. It never distracted from their honest emotions, but instead gave the photographs that timeless feeling I always look for.
This Rome wedding at Villa Miani came with one of the most iconic panoramic terrace views over the city, with the Eternal City below and the dome of St. Peter’s in the distance.
I photographed this wedding as a second photographer alongside Roman Ivanov. Featured on Vanity Fair and Wezoree.
This was a large wedding project across four days on Lake Como. The story moved through several iconic points of the lake, each one giving the wedding its own rhythm.
The main wedding day was photographed together with Roman Ivanov, while the first two days I covered solo. Day one was an elegant welcome party at Grand Hotel Tremezzo. The next day, I shot a romantic boat session on the way to the historic Italian town of Bellagio.
The main wedding day took place at Villa Regina Teodolinda in Laglio, and the final fourth day was a poolside afterparty at a private villa in the Argegno area, with a breathtaking panoramic view over Lake Como.
What I loved most about Villa Regina Teodolinda was how intimate it felt. The whole place works like one layered setting. Ceremony, garden, villa, terraces, private pier, and Lake Como below. Everything is connected. Nothing feels far away.
After four days with a couple, it feels like you lived a whole week inside their world. You leave with emotions, experience, and a slightly different version of yourself.
