Bella Genovesi Photography Hi, I’m Bella!! I’m an Intimate Wedding + Elopement Photographer based out of Colorado, but HECK YES I will travel anywhere! MY MISSION: You are the reason.

Check out my website to learn more about me, view my work, and inquire with me! My favorite thing in the world to do is capturing love stories and serving others. Lucky for me, I have a job that allows me to do both while working with the sweetest couples!! I'm here to help you envision and plan your dream intimate wedding or elopement. I know that wedding planning can be fun, but also stressful a

s heck!! That's why I'm here to serve you every step of the way. My goal is to ensure that your wedding day is as fun, intentional, and stress-free as possible! I will give you clear steps as to how we can get you those super epic, dreamy photos that you long for! And if you ever need anything, I'm only an email/text/phone call away. My mission in life has always been to serve. Photography has given me the creative outlet I so crave, while also giving me the opportunity to serve others in my community and beyond. I am here to give you more than just some nice photos; I'm here to give you an epic and meaningful experience! You deserve photos that feel authentically you; that encapsulate your love to the fullest potential. ABOUT ME: I am 22 years old and recently moved to Colorado with my husband! I graduated from the University of Dayton in Spring 2022 with a double major in English and Education. I decided halfway through senior year that teaching wasn't for me, because although I LOVED my students (they were the best), I didn't love the amount of stress the job as a whole was putting me under. Photography became a light at the end of the tunnel for me, and I decided that after graduation I was going to pursue photography full-time! This has been the best decision I could have made for myself. I have met and worked with the most amazing people, and I'm so excited for this journey to continue!

This is definitely something I’m prioritizing in my workflow this year!!

If I’m being honest, I used to haaate culling. It felt boring and tedious—I just wanted to get to the fun part (editing) already!! But I think part of my problem was that I was refusing to make decisions. If an image looked good, I thought I had to include it, even when I had already selected 5 similar images from the same scene.

This year, my main goal with my post-wedding process is to be firmer in my decisions so that my galleries look more cohesive and feel more like a storybook filled with tangible memories.

A + C’s day on film! My first wedding of the year was so special thanks to these two. The way they welcomed Keith and I into their little community for the day was so heartwarming and made capturing their day that much more fun!

I love when this job feels less like a job and more like an opportunity—to meet amazing people, learn their stories, broaden my own worldview, and make super cool pictures in the process. Grateful to A + C for giving us the opportunity to help tell their love story 🫶🏼

I just want to capture people being people. I want to make art that feels fun and honest and alive. Wedding days are the perfect place to do this. Let’s embrace the chaos.

Here’s a list of the film cameras I use most on wedding days & what I like to use them for!!

1. Contax G2 - This camera is great for portraits and details, but the thing I love most about it is its quick autofocus, which is amazing for candids—or really any moment when your subject is moving! It’s definitely my most reliable film camera.

2. Minolta SRT 101 - This is the only fully manual film camera that I own. (My father in law actually got it for me randomly one day from an estate sale!) I don’t typically use this body on wedding days myself, but my husband LOVES this camera!

3. Holga 120N - This might be my favorite camera after the Contax G2 (no, the significant price tag difference is not lost on me 😭). But I love it so much for the way it gives me the ability to get super fun, creative, in-the-moment shots with so little effort. (Can you tell I love a double exposure??)

4. Canon EOS Rebel S with a 50mm prime lens - This is my second most commonly used 35mm camera. I love using it for portraits & details because of how sharp the images are. The auto-focus sometimes takes a second to lock in, but once it does—OH BOY. The images I get from this camera always end up being some of my favs.

5. Olympus mju II - The first film camera I bought myself!! I love this little point-and-shoot for quick candids & funky details. The image quality is usually a little extra grainy, but I honestly love this. I appreciate how it gives the images a lighthearted, lived-in feel.

All images shot using either Portra 400 or 800! 🎞️

I love how the very nature of film photography encourages a slower and more intentional approach to how I shoot weddings. I love the photographer I become when I shoot film—more present, more creative, more emotionally honest. This is why, for me, film will never ever beat digital in my heart.

While digital is always predictable, film is always real.

Photos from one of my favorite days at the Denver Botanic Gardens with H + C, shot entirely on 35mm & medium format film!
