CAROLINA &

ALESSANDRO 

Wild Tuscany Wedding

Thank God I took some pictures - my wine drinking degree was not enough to conquer the lambrusco opening party so anything I write to narrate the event might be just a fantasy.

The feeling lingers on though. Carolina, Alessandro, you, your family and friends made those days full!

Heck, even overflowing with love, open arms, cheeky jokes and dirty dancing ninja moves (party photos included for evidence). This was not just a destination wedding but a raw act of life that made all the hangovers absolutely worth it…♡

Technical note: A lot of 35mm Kodak film was doubled by the power of a small half frame camera…
