the versace wedding

date: 9.25.09
location: umbria, italy

when max and heather hired me to do their wedding in umbria, i began counting the days until the beautiful event! not only was italy the most amazingly beautiful place EVER, max and heather were the totally laid back, enjoyable people to be around and photograph. because max was familiar with the area, we were able to walk through the streets of gubbio and get AM.A.ZING. locations for pictures. we had so much fun together that a couple of days after their wedding, we met up in sienna and they showed us that area VERSACE style! (max may or may not be responsible for brooklyn's first taste of gelato...)

the couple chose to do photos before the ceremony - ALWAYS a win!

first sight.

this is the small city where the ceremony took place. we had to park at the bottom and walk to the top to where the chapel was.

we had to stop for coffee before our trek up.

one of the coolest castles i have ever seen.

the tourist's reaction to a bride walking through the streets!

the chapel

the versace's!

the view from the top.

how often do you get to photograph real olive branches!
