Federica & GG

Engagement pictures are not done in Italy. However, Federica over at Sweet as Candy has a passion for design and modern photography. She follows and gathers inspiration from many American photographers sites and design blogs. I visited her home and its has if I had stepped out of Italy and into a shabby chic, martha stewart inspired villa. Every corner was perfected and it wasn't the kind of home where you're afraid to sit down or touch anything. She somehow managed to add the Italian warmth to it all. Sei veramente Bravissima, Federica!

I was delighted to photograph her and GG's love. It's also a great start to get Italy on the Engagement session boat =) Her good friend Gaia and wedding coordinator Laura organized the set.

as soon as we started, I put Federica in front of the camera, GG saw and said, "Come sei bella" - I think we can all agree.
