“Tuscany isn’t just a place; it’s a feeling.” This iconic region of Italy consistently ranks as one of the top wedding destinations globally—and for good reason. Rolling hills, sun-dappled vineyards, historic villas, and that golden Tuscan light make it a photographer’s dream.
As a wedding photographer in Tuscany, you have the privilege of documenting love stories in one of the most picturesque settings imaginable. But how do you ensure your photos do justice to the magic of this region? Let’s dive into what makes wedding photography in Tuscany unique and how you can elevate your work to the next level.
Tuscany offers diversity like no other. From the medieval charm of Siena to the lush vineyards of Chianti, there’s no shortage of stunning backdrops. Couples are drawn to Tuscany not only for its visual appeal but also for its relaxed yet luxurious atmosphere.
Imagine a couple exchanging vows under a centuries-old oak tree as the golden hour bathes the landscape in a warm glow. Or a candlelit reception in a rustic villa surrounded by olive groves. These aren’t just scenes—they’re moments waiting to be captured.
Every venue in Tuscany has its own personality. Whether it’s a hilltop villa or a charming town square, scouting beforehand allows you to find the best angles and lighting conditions. Arrive early or visit a day before to familiarize yourself with the space.
Tuscany’s light is its secret weapon. However, midday can be harsh. Plan your key shots around sunrise or sunset for that soft, ethereal glow. For midday ceremonies, use diffusers or position your subjects in shaded areas.
Tuscany’s landscapes are as much a part of the story as the couple. Incorporate sweeping vineyard shots or frame the couple against the cypress-lined roads. The key is to balance intimacy with the grandeur of the setting.
Tuscan weddings often exude a relaxed vibe. Focus on capturing authentic interactions—guests laughing over prosecco, the couple stealing a quiet moment, or the joy of an al fresco dinner under fairy lights.
Aerial shots can add a cinematic quality to your work. Highlight the venue’s architecture or showcase the surrounding countryside. Be mindful of regulations and noise, ensuring the drone doesn’t disrupt the ceremony.
Here are some iconic venues that guarantee breathtaking photos:
A historic castle near Florence with enchanting gardens and panoramic views.
A dreamy estate in Monteriggioni, perfect for intimate weddings.
Located in Chianti, this villa combines luxury with rustic charm.
A majestic venue in Montalcino surrounded by vineyards.

Communication is key. Many couples planning Tuscan weddings are traveling from abroad. Be proactive in discussing timelines, must-have shots, and backup plans for unpredictable weather.
Being a wedding photographer in Tuscany is both a privilege and a responsibility. This region’s unmatched beauty deserves to be captured with care, creativity, and attention to detail. By embracing the natural light, iconic landscapes, and the intimate moments of your couples’ day, you can create images that truly resonate.
Tuscany isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a character in every love story. Approach it with respect and imagination, and you’ll deliver work that stands the test of time.

Sluierpret met mama! 🥰
Claudia en haar prachtige dochtertje vonden samen een magisch moment onder de sluier — een klein spelletje, een grote herinnering. Dit zijn van die momenten die ik als bruidsfotograaf het allerliefst vastleg.

Symmetrie. Lijnen. Alles precies zoals het moet zijn.
Dat geeft rust.
En dan, precies in het midden: Sanne & Lars.
Op het perfecte moment, op de perfecte plek.

Engagement vibes in Positano ✨⛵
The day before saying I do, Amy & Derek set sail into the golden Amalfi light — just the two of them, a bottle of Prosecco, and a few camera guys tagging along (yep, that’s us 😉).
The sun dipped behind the cliffs, the waves whispered romance, and these two just shined. Moments like these? They’re what destination love stories are made of.
Tomorrow the big “yes”, but today was already unforgettable.
