Set against the gardens and lakefront views of Villa Cipressi in Varenna, Amanda and Andre's wedding was an intimate celebration of just ten guests on Lake Como.
The day unfolded slowly — from getting ready and portraits among the historic gardens to a ceremony overlooking the lake, followed by an evening surrounded by their closest family and friends. With such a small celebration, there was space for everything to feel personal and unhurried.
We photographed and filmed the day together, focusing on the atmosphere as much as the moments themselves: the movement, architecture, changing light and quiet interactions that made the celebration distinctly theirs.
Before the ceremony, Amanda and Andre took to the lake for a quiet boat ride along the shores of Varenna. Away from the celebration for a little while, the pace slowed — just the two of them, the open water, and the villas and mountains of Lake Como passing by.
It gave us space for portraits that felt less posed and more like a moment to simply take in where they were.
