EMILIANO

PHOTOGRAPHER AND FOUNDER

I have worked as a professional photographer in Italy for a decade. The Amalfi Coast is my home. Where did I learn this craft? I studied photography in Australia. I moved to Italy to build a career. Do I enjoy exploring the world? I travel to many countries for inspiration. I find beauty in every culture. I am particularly drawn to discovering new independent music and regularly follow various artists on Spotify.

Additionally, I am a food enthusiast and consider myself to be very sociable in real life. I strongly believe that the essence of my photographs is derived from the connection formed between the personalities of the couple and my own sensitivity.

FELICE

PHOTOGRAPHER AND EDITOR

In the summer of 2013 I started I started my career as a colorist and photographic printing technician. After the lab’s closure in 2015, I continued as a freelance photo retoucher, eventually meeting Emiliano Russo. Collaborating closely, first as an assistant and then as a second shooter, I completed my journey to become a destination wedding photographer. Today, I split my time between destination weddings across Italy, interior photography, and my passion for photo editing.

I love communicating with people from all over the world and sharing with them my passion and knowledge. I feel better with people from a different culture and habits, as I’m keen to ehance myself in this way.

Why hiring an Italian wedding photographer?

I do not think that a photographer necessarily has to specialize in a single genre or even that he has to have a style too marked in that specific genre.

Life and the creative process are a continuum. It is only a mistaken cultural vision to define borders and dichotomies that are never sterile and even functional to marketing. A matrimonialist should be good both in the portrait and in the interiors and in the still life, and these genres if he finds them all in front of him in one day: the most important of his client’s life. We are listed as best wedding photographers in Italy.

I am an anarchist of photography, a self-taught at times, that follows only some models and masters and if he seeks them only when he needs them to get to express what he wants and that changes over time.  I do not want and do not pretend to let my changing style rise on the wishes of my clients.

I love meeting the needs of those who commission me a job.   Personally I love adapting my vision of the world to the inner world of those who hired me, not only in weddings and portraits but as my clients know very well, even in architectural and interior photography. Photography is not just technical. Today more than ever, it has something else and from this point of view I am aware that photography will always be more authorial.

YOUR FREQUENT QUESTIONS

HOW WE WORK IN ANY WEDDING

Your question is too general. Please try to be more specific and provide a list of all the services you require. For example, different prints and covers may affect the price, as well as the content of the video, the inclusion of another shooter, etc. Providing more detailed information either in writing or during a phone call will enable us to provide a more accurate quote. Additionally, please remember to include the date to check availability 🙂

In our packages, travel and stay expenses are included in the cost because we regularly travel throughout Italy to shoot weddings. Although we are based in the Amalfi Coast, we do not inflate prices for travel because we are constantly moving throughout Italy. Therefore, no matter where in Italy you choose to have your wedding, our costs remain the same.

Please note that VAT is included in our prices. However, our prices are listed in Euros, not in dollars, and any currency conversion fees and taxes from their originating bank are the responsibility of the clients.

It’s important to note that a date cannot be reserved until a formal contract is signed with our photography studio. This policy is in place due to continuous inquiries, as multiple couples might request the same date during the same period.

Our photography studio operates as a cohesive team with a shared vision and methodology. Consequently, we can all ensure the same reliability and style consistency, even in post-production. However, in most cases, I personally handle the photography with a second shooter, even in assignments involving only two individuals. This approach ensures a backup in case of unforeseen circumstances and, importantly, guarantees a dual perspective, blending wide-angle shots with close-ups using two different lenses.

The minimum quantity of digital files is guaranteed by contract and may vary with respect to the type of wedding. I usually deliver from a minimum of 400 files to a maximum of 1000. All of the files are colour-graded and edited by our Studio.

The turnaround time for delivering the files depends on the chosen package and can range from one month to four months, as contractually guaranteed along with the specified number of delivered photos. If the couple wishes to expedite the process, there is an additional cost that must be agreed upon accordingly.

In the majority of our packages, two photographers are included. However, if a third photographer is needed, typically for weddings with over 100 guests, it is advisable to book the third photographer within our packages.

Within our photography studio, we also offer videography services. However, clients are free to choose third-party videographers, provided they are approved by our studio. We maintain this policy because we do not wish to work with professionals whom we do not consider suitable and with whom we would have to share space at the wedding. These conditions are set to ensure a high-quality service without risks.

Within our studio, we have a drone operator. However, in most tourist destinations, drone usage is prohibited by law, and many hotels restrict flights due to privacy concerns, especially when other guests are present. Private villas typically have fewer restrictions on drone flights. However, in all public areas and squares where people gather, local laws prohibit drone usage.

The printed album is one of the services offered by our studio and is 100% made in Italy, ensuring the highest quality printing and cover finishing. It is shipped internationally to our clients via courier. However, due to manufacturing reasons, there are longer delivery times.

Our studio collaborates with the finest wedding planners in Italy. To ensure a high level of customer satisfaction, we prefer to work with planners who are sensitive to the basic needs of photography. These planners can create a schedule that considers factors such as lighting and the hours of our service that the client has chosen to have with us. Therefore, when a client contacts us, it is important for them to clarify if they have already engaged a planner and who this planner is. Recently, our studio has established a company specifically for wedding planning, where we have selected the best professional figures in the industry.

We are delighted to recommend venues and other vendors to our clients. However, we do not provide booking services on their behalf, as it involves another profession. Unless the client specifically requests us to handle the planning as well, we will defer to our company, ‘Bliss The Wedding,’ which exclusively specializes in wedding planning.
