LAUREN & PHILIP


IL BORRO · TUSCANY




MAY 21–23, 2027

Bespoke Photography Proposal

Timeless elegance. Honest emotion.







A THREE-DAY STORY

Some celebrations deserve to be remembered not only through their defining moments, but through everything that happens around them.


For Lauren and Philip, my approach would be to create one complete visual story across the entire weekend  from the anticipation and energy of the welcome celebration to the wedding day itself and the relaxed atmosphere of the final day.


The intention is to create photographs that feel contemporary and refined today, but remain meaningful and timeless many years from now.

THE APPROACH


DOCUMENTARY AT HEART. EDITORIAL IN VISION.


My photography combines an instinctive documentary approach with a refined editorial sensibility.


I want Lauren and Philip to be completely present with their families and friends while we document the celebration naturally  the gestures, movement, atmosphere and unexpected moments that make the weekend theirs.


Alongside this documentary perspective, we will create considered editorial imagery, portraits and details inspired by the architecture, landscape and light of Tuscany.


Natural emotion. Contemporary composition. Timeless imagery.

FILM PHOTOGRAPHY

 

An analog layer that adds depth, texture and character.

Alongside my digital work, I also photograph part of each celebration on analog film. Around 80% of my work is captured digitally, while the remaining 20% is intentionally photographed on film, as a complementary way of observing and telling the story.


Working with film slows me down in a different way. It changes how I look, how I anticipate moments and how I relate to light, texture and emotion. Those images are fewer, more deliberate, and carry a very particular feeling that cannot be replicated digitally.


Film photographs bring a sense of honesty and timelessness to the final body of work. They add a tactile, emotional layer to the story, especially in moments where atmosphere and connection matter more than perfection. Used carefully, they enrich the narrative and give the celebration a visual legacy that feels personal, real and enduring.
