Fabio and Barbara were searching for a photographer way before the lockdown in Italy. Their initial idea was to have a classical Italian wedding with all their friends and relatives.

During the lockdown, we kept in touch for a while, waiting for things to be less restricted. They considered postponing the wedding until 2021, but their desire to celebrate a wedding now couldn’t be stopped, especially once Barbara learned she was pregnant. They finally decided to celebrate a small ceremony with 20 guests in Napoli this year. It was a small wedding with a quick religious ceremony followed by a small reception at a venue on a rooftop with a beautiful view of the nearby sea.
