It was set to be a classic, breathtaking seaside ceremony on the Italian Riviera, but Mother Nature had other plans! 🌊

On September 13, 2025, in beautiful Santa Margherita Ligure, Oliviero and Minqi were ready for their outdoor vows at the magnificent Imperiale Palace Hotel. Then, a sudden storm rolled in!

While the weather changed the scenery, it never dampened the spirits. With incredible speed and grace, the amazing team, led by , moved the entire celebration to the hotel’s charming portico.

The result? Pure magic! These photos are a testament to joy triumphing over unpredictable events, capturing genuine, carefree, and natural moments that Oliviero and Minqi will cherish forever. Sometimes, the most unexpected changes lead to the most beautiful memories. ✨
Swipe to see the spontaneous joy!

Adoro i matrimoni con i soli sposi il rapporto con loro è quasi totale. Il tempo che ho a disposizione mi permette di pensare a ciò che devo fare con attenzione e mi ritrovo spesso a sperimentare inquadrature e prospettive in maniera libera, senza che nessuno interrompa la magia.

A pre-wedding dinner party on a yacht headed to the famous Statue of Liberty with the majestic New York City skyline lighted up by its iconic night lights in the background, a panorama that captures and fascinates anyone who observes it.
But it was the spontaneity of the children that attracted me. Their energy was contagious and seemed to reflect, in a curious way, the spirit of the evening: a celebration of freedom, beauty and connection. The lights of New York in the background, with their undeniable charm, almost became a secondary detail compared to the fun on board.
Thanks to the parents who agreed to the publication of these images.

This time, in my favorite castle, I had the privilege of photographing a colorful wedding typical of Indian culture, but above all I had the great pleasure of meeting two extraordinary people, Nivetha and Keval, along with all their friends and relatives.
I can only say that I wish this wedding could have lasted many more days!

From Sasha & Stephanie, family portraits session in Paris.

S&S wanted to treat themselves to a few hours in Paris with their wonderful family so they could keep some souvenir photos a few days before the start of the Olympic Games.

I met Cory and Elizabeth almost by chance one afternoon and they had a flight to catch, but since they wanted some couple shots I did everything I could in… 19 minutes. ⏱️
It was nice to read about their happiness in receiving the photos and knowing that in September I will photograph their wedding in France. 💍
