An elegant photography experience designed to capture the beauty, romance, and atmosphere of Italy’s most iconic destination
Lake Como is not just a destination - it is a feeling. The stillness of the water at sunrise, the elegance of historic villas, the quiet romance of narrow Italian streets, and the golden light reflecting from the mountains. It’s a place where moments naturally feel cinematic. Your photos should capture exactly that.
Whether you are celebrating an engagement, honeymoon, anniversary, or simply your time together in Italy, this experience is designed to create images that feel effortless, elegant, and timeless.
What Makes This Experience Different
A beautiful location is only the beginning. What truly makes a photo session unforgettable is how it feels in the moment and how those memories are preserved for the rest of your life. When you book your Lake Como photoshoot with me, you receive more than just beautiful images. You receive a carefully guided experience designed to help you relax, enjoy the moment, and fully immerse yourself in the magic of Lake Como. I gently guide you throughout the session so nothing feels awkward or staged. Most couples tell me they arrived a little nervous and left saying it felt like a romantic walk around the lake. And the result? Natural, elegant photographs that look like they belong in an editorial magazine, yet feel deeply personal.
Why Couples Choose Me and What They Value Most
A calm and natural experience. Most couples are not used to being in front of the camera. I gently guide you through the entire session so everything feels effortless and natural.
A refined editorial aesthetic. My work combines natural emotions with a polished, elegant style inspired by editorial photography.
Deep knowledge of Lake Como. After photographing many sessions on the lake, I know the most beautiful light, the quiet corners, and the perfect timing for each location. My couples also truly appreciate the guidance I provide on where to stay, what to visit, and the best places to eat.
Attention to every detail. From helping you choose locations to guiding the flow of the session, every detail is thoughtfully considered to create the most beautiful result.

Additional costs & Suggested locations
Iconic Lake Como Locations
One of the most special aspects of photographing on Lake Como is the opportunity to access some of Italy’s most breathtaking historic villas.
Among the most beloved locations:
Villa del Balbianello
Perhaps the most iconic villa on the lake, known for its spectacular terraces and cinematic views.
Villa Monastero – Varenna
A romantic lakeside garden filled with sculptures, flowers, and historic architecture.
Villa Melzi – Bellagio
Elegant gardens stretching along the water with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains.
Please note that villas require advance reservations and photography permits which are not included Romantic and Luxury Escape experience.
Approximate location fees:
Villa del Balbianello — €600 in wedding attire / €400 regular outfits
Villa Monastero — €300 per hour
Villa Melzi — €300
The Lake Como Boat Experience
For couples choosing the Luxury Escape experience, one of the most beautiful additions to the session is a private boat ride on the lake.
In fact, many couples say that their favorite part of the entire photoshoot happens on the water.
Imagine gliding across Lake Como on a classic wooden boat, surrounded by dramatic mountains, with the wind in your hair and historic villas slowly appearing along the shoreline.
It feels like stepping into a timeless Italian film.
From the water we can capture some of the most breathtaking and cinematic perspectives of Lake Como, views that simply cannot be experienced from land.
This is why the boat experience pairs perfectly with the longer photography session, allowing us to explore multiple locations and create a richer, more dynamic story of your time on the lake. Private boat tours typically start from €550 for two hours.
If you would like to include this experience, I will be happy to assist with organizing the boat and planning the best timing for the session.
FAQs
How far in advance should we book?
Lake Como is a very popular destination, especially between May and October. To secure your preferred date, I recommend booking as early as possible, ideally several weeks or months in advance.
We have never done a photoshoot before. Will you guide us?
Absolutely. Most couples I photograph say exactly the same thing before the session. My approach is very relaxed and natural. I gently guide you throughout the shoot so nothing feels stiff or uncomfortable. Think of it more as a romantic walk around Lake Como rather than a formal photoshoot.
What should we wear for the photoshoot?
I always recommend elegant, timeless outfits that complement the romantic atmosphere of Lake Como. Soft neutral tones, flowing dresses, linen, silk, and classic tailoring work beautifully with the scenery. After booking, I will happily provide personal styling advice to help you choose the perfect look.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Lake Como actually looks incredibly beautiful even in soft clouds or light rain. However, if the weather conditions are truly unsuitable, we will do our best to adjust the timing or reschedule depending on availability.
How and when will we receive our photos?
Your photographs will be delivered within three weeks through a beautifully designed private online gallery.
From there you can easily download the images, share them with family and friends, and order professional prints if you wish.
How to Reserve Your Session?
Booking your Lake Como photo experience is simple. Just choose the experience that best fits your vision and your preferred date. A €500 reservation retainer secures your session in my calendar. From there, we will carefully plan every detail together: from selecting the most beautiful locations to choosing the perfect time of day for the most flattering light, ensuring an effortless and refined experience.
