This stunning Jewish wedding in Tuscany took place at Villa Leonardo, a beautiful venue located in the heart of Sinalunga in Val di Chiana. For this special couple, the wedding day had a unique twist, deviating from the standard itinerary to ensure an unforgettable experience. The day began with the couple’s preparations in the villa, setting the stage for a romantic and intimate celebration of love and tradition.

After the preparations, the couple embarked on a scenic drive towards Vitaleta Chapel, located in the stunning Val d’Orcia, near Pienza. This picturesque location, with its rolling hills and tranquil beauty, provided the perfect backdrop for a couple portrait session before the ceremony. The session took place in the golden light of Tuscany, capturing timeless images that reflect their love and connection against the iconic landscape of the region.

Returning to Villa Leonardo, everything was set for the Jewish wedding ceremony. The ceremony took place under the chuppah, the traditional canopy symbolizing the couple’s new home. Surrounded by close family and friends, the couple exchanged vows in a heartfelt and intimate ceremony. The ceremony concluded with the broken glass tradition, followed by an energetic celebration as the couple shared their joy with their guests.

After the ceremony, the festivities continued with lively dancing and the joyous tradition of the bride being lifted in a chair by her guests. This engaging ritual added an extra touch of fun and excitement to the celebration. The evening was capped off with a dinner served at the table by the guests themselves, creating a warm and personal atmosphere where everyone could enjoy the evening together in a communal spirit.

My approach to this awarded wedding reportage was all about balance—capturing spontaneous, emotional moments while also crafting elegant, editorial-style portraits. I worked with a discreet presence, letting the day unfold naturally, while gently guiding the couple when needed to create refined and timeless images.
This mix of candid storytelling and glamorous, composed portraits allows me to tell a wedding story that feels real and personal, yet beautifully curated. It’s not just about documenting the day—it’s about elevating it through photography that reflects the emotion, style, and soul of your celebration.
