Apulia Wedding Photographer – Marilisa & FrancescoApulia - Italy

A Fancy wedding in the beautiful Apulia countryside

Marilisa and Francesco are the type of couple I would like to work with at every wedding. So natural, loving and expressive, and they love photography! They wanted me to be their wedding photographer in Apulia because they were after someone who would document the event in a candid style. In my view, storytelling is the way to shoot weddings, and if all the couples were like the two of them, my job would be much easier. This was definitely a wedding which I was inspired by. It was a mix of elegant, fancy, romantic, and with a pinch of extravagance which never hurts. Nothing really was missing!

Destination Wedding in Apulia

Francesco and Marilisa live and work in Milan, but they chose Apulia — Marilisa’s homeland, as a venue for their wedding. Their choice could not have been a better one. Apulia, in fact, is one of the most sought after destinations for wedding couples coming from all around the world. Also, it’s no doubt one of my favorite places to shoot weddings. Wild, romantic, and untouched nature, are just a few words to describe this land of unmatched beauty.

The day started at the hotel where Francesco stayed, the same one where I had my room, so getting to him was as easy as going from one room to another. I just had to pack my gear and close the door. No driving that day!
I had a lot of great chances to shoot from the very start of the day, since their families and all of the guests were nice and friendly. The atmosphere in his room was sparkling. Here, the groomsman and two friends helped him getting ready, making jokes and laughing and having fun all the time. I was surprised by the fun and cheerful mood which I noticed non-stop throughout the day.
After shooting his getting ready, I went to Marilisa’s house, where I stayed until she was ready to leave for the church. Unsurprisingly, here too the atmosphere was joyful and exciting, so I took a lot of nice photos.

The wedding photo shoot

The rings exchange took place in a nice small church in Torremaggiore. Right after that, we went for a walk in the old town centre, which offers amazing street views with all those romantic and picturesque alleys. Many of their friends joined us, and so it was a truly pleasant and fun walk all together. The weather was just fine, hence the colors were bright and vibrant. Old towns are one of my favorite places to shoot, and I must say that this one was just amazing, like no other I’ve seen before. Beside that, the guys were gorgeous, they were both joyful and romantic, so there were a lot of nice moments to capture. Such a spontaneous and natural behavior makes life easier to a wedding photographer.

A Fancy Party in an exclusive Venue

The wedding reception was at Tenimento San Giuseppe, a palatial villa surrounded by nature. As soon as they got into the lobby, the bride and groom performed frantic dances, followed little by little by all guests. After a long time on the dance floor, the dinner started inside a large and rustic hall, where the couple could finally relax and enjoy their guests and friends. But the big party wasn’t over. Right after the dinner, everybody went outdoor for the actual dance party, which went on well into the night. Once again here, the wedding couple and their guests were just great at creating fun moments to capture. I have been truly inspired by this day full of events, and so happy to have been their wedding photographer in Apulia.
