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.

A growing project

``A shared vision``

The Studio

Luma Wedding was born from my passion for wedding photography and the desire to tell every story with authenticity, elegance and discretion. Over time, this project has grown. More and more couples have chosen my way of telling their day, to the point of making an evolution natural: transforming Luma Wedding into a photography studio. Today I collaborate with a team of selected photographers who share the same vision, the same approach and the same values ​​as me. It's not simply about professionals working together, but about people who believe in spontaneous, emotional and timeless photography. Each photographer in the studio has been carefully chosen and trained to describe each wedding according to the identity of Luma Wedding, so that each couple can live the same experience and receive images consistent with the style that made them fall in love with our work. Whether personally present or one of the studio's photographers, our goal always remains the same: to preserve your memories with sensitivity, attention to detail and a narrative capable of moving even after many years.

How we work

Every wedding is unique, but our method follows a simple principle: putting people at the center and describing the day in the most natural way possible. Before the wedding we spend time getting to know you, understanding your story and listening to what is really important to you. This allows us to face the day naturally, without forcing and without interrupting the most authentic moments. During the event we work discreetly, observing what happens and letting emotions express themselves spontaneously. We intervene only when necessary, guiding you with simplicity so that you can always feel at ease. After the wedding, each photograph is selected and developed following the workflow and style that distinguish Luma Wedding. Post-production maintains a bright, elegant and timeless aesthetic, enhancing each image with care and consistency. This method is shared by all the studio's photographers, so as to guarantee the same quality, the same attention to detail and the same experience, regardless of who will be present on your wedding day.
