Editorial Weddings

Weddings, without the clichés.
Observed, never staged.

I photograph a very limited number of weddings per year, approached as editorial stories rather than traditional coverage.

I don’t photograph weddings as performances.

I’m interested in what happens around them — the energy, the expressions, the in-between moments.

What people do when they forget about the ceremony.

My approach is raw, saturated, and unapologetically direct.

I work with sharp light, bold color, and close proximity — embracing imperfection, noise, and intensity.

I focus on people rather than rituals. Faces, gestures, reactions, tension, release.

The kind of moments that don’t fit into a traditional wedding album.

This work is for couples who care more about experience than tradition.

People drawn to visual culture, music, art, and atmosphere — who want their wedding documented as it actually felt.

  • “This weekend wouldn’t have been the same without you. Your energy was felt by everyone.”

    — J. & G.

  • “We looked at the photos together with our families and everyone was tearing up. Very special images.”

    — K. & F.

Editorial wedding photography capturing the energy of the celebration

I photograph a very limited number of weddings each year, primarily in Los Angeles and Italy, and occasionally elsewhere.

Editorial wedding projects are accepted on a limited basis.

This work aligns with high-end documentary and editorial commissions and is designed for couples who value authorship, trust, and experience over traditional packages.
