ABOUT ME

MANUELE ZANGRILLO DESTINATION WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

To my friends, simply Manu. I was born in Gaeta, a seaside town, but I love the silent mountain where I take refuge. I enjoy the quiet of the trails up there, the reflection, and the woods where I can gaze at what the Japanese call komorebi: the light filtering through the trees. Ah, how I love light, my companion in my work as a photographer. But never as much as another light, my wife Valeria. She often criticizes me for being introverted, too precise in everything, but that's only because I love doing things well.

How I Shoot Wedding

I started shooting weddings when I was an intern at a photography studio, after taking a photography course in 2011. I've been to many weddings, but only mine with Valeria showed me how the deepest and most eternal sigh of happiness is the moment before saying "I do." On the wedding day, I can empathize with the bride and groom because it's as if I'm reliving that moment every time. Only then can I put the same attention, the same dedication, the same love into it.

Style of my shoot

Sometimes it seems impossible to make tangible what is invisible to the eye, like love. And this is the magic of photography. What illuminates my style is the sweetness of glances, the vibrations, the frequencies of love. Through each photo, I express a romantic style, using reportage to capture spontaneity and intimacy, breaking away from classic posed shots. This puts even the shyest couples at ease, allowing them to express their uniqueness. Warm lighting, on the other hand, is my companion in conveying the atmosphere of connection that exists when two people are one.
