MY PHILOSOPHY

I conceive marriage as a way to eternalize love in all its spontaneity and this, in my opinion, gives my photographs a poetic simplicity. Mine is not just a technique, but a philosophy of shooting. Great stories, in fact, are a matter of small details that reveal a thousand words. A quick glance, a gesture, a smile or a stroke, are all the nuances that warm up your special day in the most intimate way. Immortalizing a wedding is much more than just taking pictures.
I always try to get an idea, a thought that speaks of love. It’s a question of emotion, content, poetry, soul that must be transposed on paper to last forever as the feeling it expresses. It’s the style that makes the difference, a glossy magazine or Hollywood “Age d’Or” style that I try to render in every single shot. My job is to stop every moment endlessly in the most artistic way possible. The result becomes poetry, sweet to the tongue, warm to the heart and soothing to the mind.

MY APPROACH

Almost a friend with a camera, my approach is documentary in style, in a very discreet way. I have a relaxed, unobtrusive and natural approach to photography. I am interested in taking simple, clear and exciting photographs, with a sense of timeless beauty for your destination wedding in Italy. This means taking photos out of time, photos that will still resonate emotionally with your future children, their future children and their future children. I want my images to reflect the truth about your day; the setting, the small gestures and the warmth and emotion that was felt amongst you and your guests. I always like to have a bit of time with the bride & groom to capture some creative, but natural photos of just the two of you. This is the only point during the day where I will be directive in order to place you in the best light. Wondering if I shoot more colour? Absolutely, nearly all images are delivered in colour. I just have a thing for black and white imagery.

I very much enjoy being a part of your wedding, relaxed honeymoons, romantic engagements, proposals, and adventure couple portrait photography sessions. For information on availability and rates, please email: guidoandreoniph@gmail.com

KIND WORDS FROM MY CLIENTS

Melissa & I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to capture the moments that will tell our story for a lifetime! Your photos are amazing and you are truly a professional! Thank you so much Guido!

Vanessa & Simon

Guido was the photographer for our wedding in Tuscany. He always responded right away to my emails and was very professional. The wedding box he sent was very creative and memorable……and his photos–FLAWLESS! would highly recommend!!

Caroline & Matteo

Our first approach to Guido was through his internet site: we were desperately searching for a non-traditional wedding photographer, someone who could catch unique moments while the are happening, avoiding too many posed pictures. We immediately found his works fresh, magic and very original, it really seemed each shot carried his personal style. When we contacted him, he confirmed to be also a nice guy, honest and professional. The day of our marriage, we particularly appreciated his ability to be everywhere, but in a very discrete way. The pictures we received, finally, were really nice and “real”…exactly what we expected!

Enrica & Alberto

Guido is very kind and to take photos under the direct guidance was very easy. If you wanna have the professional photos and to feel a spontaneity during photography – I recommend to write to Guido! Thank you so much, Guido!

Elen & Anton

Guido was an amazing choice for our photographer in Florence. 

 We live in Arizona and we wanted to get married in Italy. I found a few photographers located in Florence on line and viewed there web sites. I kept coming back to to Guido’s unique photos and his ability to capture candid moments, that I new would make lasting memories for our celebration. My husband and I had no idea where we wanted our photos to be taken or where we wanted our dinner reception to be. Guido did such an amazing job taking care of us! He did not disappoint! We felt that just around every corner, every moment there was a little surprise.  Guido has an amazing eye for the perfect photos. He was kind, professional and also personable. By the end of the night we not only received AMAZING photos but also made a new friend. Thank you Guido, for the memories!
