La Cocumella wedding, Sorrento
Fabio and Mariacristina's La Cocumella Sorrento wedding brought together two landmarks: the fourteenth-century Chiostro di San Francesco, with its interlaced stone arches, for the ceremony, and Grand Hotel La Cocumella, on the cliff edge, for the celebration.

The morning was spent getting ready in rooms lined with books: the groom with his friends and an older man helping with his cufflinks, the bride beside a gilded mirror, the women of the family fastening her dress. Outside, a single sailboat sat on the calm water.
In the cloister she walked down an aisle lined with white flowers, and afterwards they drove off in a vintage Mini.
Portraits under the arches and the palms, then the terrace of La Cocumella above the Sorrento coast: dinner at sunset with Vesuvius across the bay, a first dance under the lamps and Capri on the horizon as the light dropped. The images follow an editorial and documentary approach: structured in the architecture, unobtrusive in the emotion.
