This Venice elopement at San Giorgio Maggiore was the definition of timeless romance. We began the day at sunrise, capturing the couple’s quiet moments as they got ready at Il Palazzo Experimental. The early morning light gave everything a soft, dreamlike quality—perfect for intimate storytelling.
At 7:30 AM, we boarded a private water taxi and glided through the peaceful canals of Venice. The city was still asleep, and the silence made everything feel even more magical. The ceremony took place at the stunning Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore, a hidden gem on its own island, offering breathtaking views of the Venetian lagoon and the skyline of Piazza San Marco.
The couple exchanged vows in the heart of the basilica, surrounded by timeless architecture and golden light. It was a deeply emotional and spiritual moment, filled with intimacy and calm.
After the ceremony, we continued exploring Venice until 10:30 AM. From the reflections on the water to the narrow alleyways and bridges, every corner of the city became part of their story. We captured authentic moments on the boat, candid smiles, and gentle embraces under the soft glow of the morning sun.
This elopement was more than just a photo session—it was an experience full of emotion, elegance, and Venetian charm.
If you’re planning your own Venice elopement at San Giorgio Maggiore or elsewhere in Italy, I’d be honored to capture your story with honesty, artistry, and heart.
Let your love unfold in one of the most romantic cities in the world.
