I fondly remember this wedding at Fattoria del Colle in Tuscany for several reasons. The couple, Alberto and Enrica, reside in Turin but share a deep connection with Tuscany. Whenever they seek tranquility, they retreat to Fattoria del Colle, a captivating farm nestled in the serene Val d’Orcia. Its magnificent, untouched landscape is the highlight of this region. I first met the couple on their wedding day at Fattoria del Colle, and everything unfolded naturally. After a brief ceremony in San Giovanni d’Asso, we journeyed through the countryside for photographs. Within a few minutes’ drive, we discovered the perfect spot. It was around 7pm with the light softening, a clear sky, and the earth luminously red. The intense silence was almost overwhelming! It was a late summer evening and the almost surreal atmosphere felt akin to being on the moon. I consider myself fortunate to have been there.
As the sun began to set, we captured the newlyweds against the backdrop of the Tuscan landscape, their joy mirrored in the warm hues of the sunset. The rolling hills of Val d’Orcia, coupled with the rustic charm of Fattoria del Colle, created an enchanting environment. The rustic elegance of the farm, combined with the natural beauty of the surroundings, made it a picture-perfect location for their wedding in Tuscany. The reception that followed was equally unforgettable. The couple’s love for Tuscany was evident in their choice of local cuisine and wine. The guests savored the traditional dishes, while the moonlight cast a magical glow over the celebration. Laughter and heartfelt toasts filled the air, creating a warm and festive atmosphere.
As the evening wound down, I found myself reflecting on the beauty of the day. The serenity of the location, the happiness of Alberto and Enrica, and the charm of their Tuscan wedding will forever remain etched in my memory. It was truly a privilege to document their special day at Fattoria del Colle.
Kind words from the couple: 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!
