The photos you’re going to see are from the first wedding I booked for the current season. Isi and Andy are from Germany; we had an easy, informal communication from the very first moment. Consequently this ease is reflected in their wedding, a relaxed Countryside Wedding in Tuscan Castle. Also, “Castello di Santa Maria Novella” – the venue where this wedding took place – has a scenic view that overlooks the Italian countryside.
If you’re asking yourself what a “no-stress” wedding day could be like, I think you must see this one. No pressure, no rush, an overall relaxed mood that dominated the day; all guests seemed to feel really comfortable and this reflected in the photos I took. Also the weather, with some rain and a really cold evening, didn’t break this atmosphere. And if you need confirmation of that, have you ever seen bride, groom and guests having some rest by the pool on a wedding day? This atmosphere and attitude certainly makes my work easier, because I could definitely feel really comfortable with the whole group, moving trough people as one of them. As a result, a few hours ago when I saw how well the final work came out, I decided to do an experiment, while posting it.
Each of us – by “us i mean “us photographers”- has a favorite lens. Somebody prefers zooms, some others prefer to use prime lenses. But I think all of us has a favorite focal length. A standard favorites include 35mm, 50mm or 85mm. I’m using the Nikon 28 f1,8mm AFS from the beginning, but in the past months I’ve started using it more and more; until the past wedding, where I used it for more than 80% of my work. Consequently a question has grown in my mind: is it possible to tell a full wedding story with just this lens? If you’re curious about the answer just scroll down, and let me know your thoughts about it!
My personal conclusion? Definitely a HUGE “YES we can“!

It is really nice to know that I have chosen exactly the same lens and use it probably as often as You do. I like the way you capture the moments, also admire the fact that all images come out straight from Lightroom. I will definitely follow You as a source of inspiration. Keep up the good work !!!
Wow! The beauty of the location is matched only by the excellent photography!
Great photoshoot. Amazing mood of the photos, nice to see 😉
Thanks so much!
