We answer your questions
What is your photographic style?
We take photos of weddings and important events using a style often referred to as reportage. This particular type of photography doesn't require any posing, but rather seeks to capture all those small, important moments like a wedding, doing so in the most natural and spontaneous way possible. Therefore, there will be no protocols or scripts to follow—no pretense, in short!
Personally, we don't like to guide people into forced or fake actions; you'll be able to move freely throughout the day, without the stress of having your photograph taken. There will be times when, if you wish, we can take more posed photos, but always unforced and only if desired. Otherwise, we'll try to be as discreet as possible, guiding you only at certain times of the day or in certain circumstances. If, however, you'd like a classic, exclusively posed photograph, then I don't think we're the right choice for you.
Do you only work in Sicily?
No, we can obviously travel throughout Italy if necessary and accommodate your requests. Of course, all travel expenses, such as gas, tolls, and accommodations, can impact the wedding cost. Also, consider that a wedding outside of our region can require a longer commitment than a single day, which could mean losing other work here in Sicily
.
How can I make a reservation for my event?
You can contact us using the contact form below and schedule an appointment at our studio. If this isn't possible, we can arrange an online call. If you decide to hire us as your photographer, we'll have you sign a contract certifying and confirming all your choices and will also require a deposit.
I've seen photos of your weddings and sometimes it seems really strange to see people having fun. Is it you who manage to capture the right moments or are weddings really that much fun?
Reportage is closely tied to real events, so it's impossible for this type of service to capture a situation that doesn't exist. The most touching weddings you've ever seen have been truly eventful; obviously, the photographer can make a difference by anticipating or capturing an action as it's about to happen, but much depends on what's actually happening. The photographer, no matter how skilled, can't invent the content. We'll capture exactly the same things you experienced in your photos.
Is location important for a good photo result?
Of course, locations (and by that I mean all the places that will be part of your event) are important for a great service. For example, if the bride or groom get ready in a small, dark room, we'd have a hard time taking great photos, and truth be told, no one could do it in the same conditions. Bright, spacious spaces are essential for high-quality images, so it's important to pay attention to these aspects when choosing the venues for your event (dressing, place of worship, and restaurant). Remember, these are the places where those fun and touching things could happen that can make the difference in our photo shoot.
We have special needs for that day, what can we do?
If you need something specific, that's no problem for us. It's important to remember that with the reportage style, we can't guarantee that every person attending your event will be included in every image, especially if they weren't particularly involved. If you'd like a photo with a dear friend or distant relative, that's no problem! If you have a specific request, such as classic or similar group photos or images with parents or grandparents, please just let me know before the cake cutting and you'll be satisfied! The only thing we ask is that dinner be available if the wedding ceremony lasts all day.
What are your rates?
Our services are customizable, so there's no set price for every event. Contact us and explain your needs, and we'll send you a personalized quote.
Do you offer additional services?
Of course, our job is photography (Family Photos, Maternity, Personal Books, Baptisms and events in general), where there is an event to photograph we will be happy to work for you!
Do you have a time and shot limit on the day of the event?
We don't have a time limit; we usually cover the event from start to finish. There are no limits on the number of shots and photos; we take as many as we deem important to tell a complete story.
Are the photos retouched?
The shots are almost always corrected (lighting, contrast, and a minimal, strictly personal touch on the colors). As you've probably noticed, the final result is always completely natural. You'll never find artificial color gradients, overlays, or extravagant effects in our work.
How do I book and have you at my event?
Easy, contact us by email or phone to check availability. Once you've agreed on the date and type of service, we'll schedule an appointment in the studio. If you're away from home, you can book with a 35% deposit. You can pay however you like: PayPal, bank transfer, etc.
