Ilaria and Brett’s story spans both Italy and the United States: she had moved there for work, while he had fallen in love with the Italian language.

And so, for their wedding day, they returned to Italy—specifically to the Bergamo area, where Ilaria’s family roots lay. Set against the stunning backdrop of Locanda Armonia in Trescore Balneario, the couple asked me to create a sweeping, luminous portrait—much like their love itself.
