LUXURY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN UMBRIA - TIMELESS AND DOCUMENTARY STYLE
Monastero Santa Margherita, Todi
At the Monastero Santa Margherita, perched above Todi’s valley Darren and Alicia marked their destination wedding with an elegance that seemed to ripple across the rolling Umbrian hills. The centuries‑old monastery, a stone sentinel watching over the landscape offered panoramas that cradled the day—soft warm light spilling over timeless walls leaving an unmistakable lingering sense of Italian tranquility. Opting for a tempo they lingered with family and friends letting the celebration unfold into a weekend of communion, laughter and quiet mirth. The unhurried pulse gave the space to follow a vibe that felt spontaneous, heartfelt and soaked in atmosphere. From the cloister’s aperitivo to the golden‑hour portraits awash in amber light each frame seemed to whisper joy, intimacy and a restrained elegance. Their calm, refined bearing draped the occasion in a luxury that captures the very heart of editorial wedding photography, in Umbria and Tuscany—organic, yet impeccably polished.
Monastero Santa Margherita wedding photographer
A sophisticated destination wedding, in Umbria, where elegance, culture and emotion intertwine effortlessly. Hosted at the awe‑inspiring Monastero Santa Margherita in Todi, one of the region’s celebrated wedding venues—the summer Italian wedding captured everything adored about our documentary‑editorial photography: a natural candid style that chronicles authentic love stories while radiating timeless sophistication.
Alicia
the bride
Adanna was such a beautiful bride, self aware and such candid in a lovely mood. The room was so little with suitcases and dresses all over, but Maurizio managed to shot some very quick and editorial portraits with a dramatic light. When she was fully dressed, we moved out in the back courtyard as the late autumn sky soaked in the incredible colors of the leaves that covered the building. The contrasts with her skin and a white background led to the most beautiful editorial bridal photography in Umbria
Uzoma,
the groom
Uzo was one of the most enthusiastic grooms we’ve ever met, he spent a whole year planning every detail to perfection, but on the day he lived every emotion fully, enjoying the company of his friends with zero stress

what does TIMELESS photography mean in terms of wedding photography?
Timeless means NATURAL, untouched by trends, true to color and deeply authentic. It feels effortless, never stiff, warm and candid yet refined and beautifully composed
Natural wedding photography is a choice for all those couples with a clear aesthetic vision who want to look stunning, but don’t want to spend time and energy on the photoshoot. It combines a documentary approach - capturing real moments without interruption of staging - with an editorial touch, where the photographer gives occasional direction but mostly fades into the background, allowing every moment to unfold naturally and spontaneously
OUR TAKE: Our couples love to look like they’ve stepped off a magazine cover - radiant and effortlessly stylish, but they also want to live their day without spending time posing. They value genuine experiences they company of their guests and meaningful moments with their families. That’s why our photography is designed to capture beauty without interruption, catching you living the moment with a minimal direction.
If you are getting married in Umbria or Tuscany you are surrounding yourself with golden light, rolling hills and a relaxed atmosphere that should guide the photo storytelling. Our natural but editorial style blends authenticity with sophistication and is a unique approach to the unique vibes of a destination wedding in Italy.
Time to Shine
We played with direct flash to give some of their posed shots that chic, paparazzi magazine vibe, while still sneaking away for our signature sunset portraits - soft, timeless and full of romance
For couples who want emotion and sophistication
Dinner al fresco
The couple drove to the dinner with a vintage convertible car and gave their first dance among the tables in an enchanted atmosphere. This was also the time for preparing the cake in front of all the guests and cutting it under fireworks
Let’s get this
party started!
After the cake they moved inside the glass house, they changed into traditional Nigerian dress and put the party on fire with a fun money dance
