WEDDING WANDERLUST - WHICH ITALIAN REGION FITS YOU BEST?

Bella Bride

Italian Riviera

On or near water, capturing a couple’s union against stunning contouring hillsides overlooking the sea is an extraordinary experience. Nestled between the mountains and the Tyrrhenian Sea, Liguria is the small—but mighty—crescent-shaped region of Italy that borders France and makes up the Mediterranean enclave known as the Italian Riviera. The Riviera’s magnetic allure thrives in its rustic sensibility and the contemporary charm of its coastal towns. 
Dip your toes in the breathtaking scenery of Cinque Terre’s pastel-colored villages articulate a romantic tension between light and texture. Our recommendations? The crystal clear waters surrounding Portovenere’s Fortress Umberto I create an imposing medieval atmosphere, while Belmond Splendido in Portofino and Imperiale Palace Hotel in Santa Margherita Ligure are sure to satisfy the most luxurious of cravings.

RomE

Rome’s grandeur emerges in an eternal symphony of love. There is so much artistry exhibited in glorious capital and treasures, from archeological sites such as the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Imagine the whispers of the Trevi Fountain serenading your union, the Sistine Chapel offering unparalleled views of the Roman skyline, and the opulence of the quiet gardens of Aventine Hill adorning your memories forever. You’ll be in good company: the city's cobbled alleys lead to hidden gems, each corner revealing stories of love that have echoed through the centuries. Whether you have your heart set on an intimate civil wedding or a grand nuptial gathering, each photograph and video we take of you in this sprawling warm town will be etched in the marble of time. 

Serenade Your Love In Ancient Roman Grounds

Venice

We are of the belief that every single element in your wedding should tell the story of your union. Right from the outset, Venice offers couples not only a picture-perfect setting, but also an unforgettable opportunity for their guests to see one of the world's most beautiful cities. The major plus-side of the equation: there’s no shortage of captivating backgrounds. Water-borne palaces, iconic churches, and bridges suspended over countless canals dotted with gondolas abound—the hard part is falling in love with only one. From civil ceremonies at Palazzo Cavalli to religious celebrations at St. Mark’s Basilica and Palazzo Papadopoli reflected in the shimmering waters of the Grand Canal, Venice's timeless allure provides the perfect stage for couples in search of eternal golden blessings.

PUGLIA

The heel of Italy’s boot boasts golden coastlines, steep cliffs, and turquoise-blue waters. The region? Puglia. In Puglia, wedding photographs and videos are graced by nature's artistry: a breathtaking display of sunlight paints a sweeping warm canvas, while white-washed architecture overlooks the sea.  A perfect blend of rustic charm and sophistication can be found in Puglia's traditional masserie and charming trulli houses in Alberobello, majestic rocky beaches in Peschici and Vieste, and the dramatic southern coastlines in Otranto. The exotic scenery perfectly fits couples in search for a wide range of idyllic locations for their Italian wedding.

Frequently asked questions

Where are you based?

We’re happy to call the South of France our home. When we’re not working at our photo and video studio, we spend time between France and Italy, especially from Tuscany to the Amalfi Coast and Lake Como.

Can we book just one service, or do we have to book both?

Our partnership is at the core of Cadoret Studios, but we may work separately at times to offer individual photography and videography services. We also work with other skilled photo and video teams to provide a smooth and stress-free experience for our brides and grooms.

How and when will we receive our photos and film?

Your final wedding prints and digitals will be ready within 4 to 6 weeks after your big day. Every wedding album is personally curated upon careful selection and expert editing processes. Approximately, we provide between 40 and 60 images per hour. We ensure your film is captured with exceptional 4K quality. You will enjoy the cinematic experience on big screens or on smaller devices.

How do you price your photo and film services?

Each wedding is different and comes with its own particular set of needs. We quote every wedding, elopement, and portrait session on an individual basis depending on desired services, such as photography and/or videography, coverage time, and number of guests. Contact us and we will gladly assist you in making the best choice for your dream event.

Do you shoot film or digital?

Both. Being confident in both mediums allows us to bring digital and film cameras to your special day, and select the best option for every frame. Film creates exquisite timeless photographs akin to fine art paintings, while digital offers complete control over the pictures and lets us dance in and out during your “I Dos” with optimal discretion. We combine masterful editing techniques and a wide range of elegant photography skills to deliver flawless consistency. Visit our Portfolio to learn more about our style and distinct approach to photography.

Do you use drones?





Striking aerial shots add a captivating and spectacular touch to your wedding album. Cadoret Studios’ lead filmmaker, Ossa, is a certified drone pilot for commercial use. However, drone usage depends on factors like location, venue permissions, and weather conditions. We'd love to hear more about your event so we can make the necessary preparations to incorporate aerial drone footage.

Do you have backup equipment?

Absolutely. We use professionally maintained equipment only for both video and photography. Our gear is compatible with both photo and video, and we guarantee that everything is redundantly backed up. In the event of a technical issue with one device, we always have three others available as backups.

Do you record the audio?

Yes, we do record audio. For speeches, we use a lavalier microphone (also known as lav, or lapel mic) on the groom, plus a backup on the officiant, and connect it to the DJ soundboard. We will use any recorded audio that enhances the story in the final film.

How do I confirm my wedding date?

Once you have confirmed your date and selected your collection, we will provide you with a photography contract for your review. To secure your date, we kindly request that you sign and return the contract within approximately one week. Upon receiving the signed contract and a 50% photography retainer, your wedding date will be officially booked.
