Second shooting for Samantha Rivieccio


VALENTINA & PRINCE


The countryside around Siena has a strong visual identity, but I prefer not to let the location overpower the people who are actually living the wedding. At Villa Tesoro, the landscape and architecture became part of the photographs naturally: present when they mattered, quieter when attention needed to remain on gestures, family and the energy of the celebration. The result is a wedding story rooted in Tuscany while remaining centred on the people who experienced it.
