F.A.Q.

  • Booking me is very simple :

    - Use the calendar above

    To confirm I’ll ask only a deposit of €50 to pay by card online.
    You’ll can pay the balance after the photo shoot.

    After the payment of confirmation :

    • in case of proposal I’ll send you some ideas and, in some cases, a map to choose your best spot for the proposal.

    • if you need to book a classic wooden boat for your service I can tell you which are the best companies to contact. Not all boats are suitable for a photo shoot.

    • If you need to contact a Villa for your photo shoot I will be at your disposal to help you contact the people in charge of the events. You can see here some ideas.

    • The deposit is non-refundable, from the moment we start planning your photoshoot I am already working for you to accommodate all your needs where possible and answer all your questions. I hope you understand.

  • I’m so sorry but not.

    The photos will be edited with my style. I personally edit the photos, I don't give them to someone else to do it, for this I need a minimum of days.

  • You’ll receive my first selection of your photos into max 5 days (sometimes I’ll need 7 days).

    You’ll can see the preview on a private gallery online protected with password.

    From this gallery you’ll need to select your best photos depending on the package

  • The files delivered are in max size and 300 dpi, enough for prints of any kind. If you wish to have the unedited digital RAW files you can ask for the whole collection at the moment of booking process. After the shooting I’ll give you a SD card with all the photos.
    This option don’t include an editing of your photos by me.

  • Yes, I'm available anywhere in the world.

    To get a customized quote, please contact me by email.

  • Yes. Villa Melzi is in Bellagio, very close to the center town.

    No travel fee required.

  • I combine photography with local knowledge and a storytelling approach that focuses on real emotion.

    My goal is not only to take beautiful pictures, but to help you experience Lake Como in an authentic and memorable way.

    With the beauty of Bellagio as the backdrop, every session becomes more than a photoshoot — it becomes part of your travel story.

  • Hiring a professional photographer allows you to fully enjoy your time in Lake Como while your memories are captured naturally and beautifully. Instead of worrying about selfies, phone cameras, or asking strangers for photos, you can focus on the experience itself.

    A professional session gives you:

    • High-quality images with cinematic scenery

    • Guidance with posing so you feel relaxed and natural

    • Local knowledge of the best hidden locations and lighting

    • A personalized experience tailored to your story

    • Timeless memories you can print, share, and relive forever

    Lake Como is one of the most romantic destinations in the world, and your photos should reflect that atmosphere.

  • Not at all.

    Most couples I photograph say the same thing before the session. My approach is natural, relaxed, and guided. I focus on genuine interactions rather than stiff poses.

    During the session, I help you feel comfortable with simple direction so your photos look authentic, emotional, and effortless.

  • Absolutely. One of the biggest advantages of hiring a local photographer is having access to the best locations and timing.

    I help you choose spots based on:

    • Lighting conditions

    • Privacy and crowd levels

    • Your personal style

    • The atmosphere you want in your photos

    • Sunrise or sunset timing

    I also know hidden corners and less crowded viewpoints that most tourists never discover.
