Bellissima mattina

Dóri’s Millanova gown blended beautifully with Venice’s diverse architectural styles: from Moorish and Byzantine influences to Renaissance and Baroque, nearly every classical style is present here, harmoniously complementing one another. Tomi’s timeless black tuxedo would look perfect anywhere in the world. We photographed from morning until sunset, pausing only for a longer lunch break. We were lucky with the weather as well—although it rained at dawn, there was no trace of it during the day. Most of the images were taken using natural light, while in the hotel we also worked with flash. As a lovely gesture, the hotel had a beautiful bridal bouquet made for Dóri for the day of the shoot. Well… that’s Italians.
