Castello di Badia Intimate Wedding
SYLVIA + CHARLES
JUNE, 2025
POGGIBONSI, ITALY
Some weddings stay with you long after the day is over. This one, at Castello di Badia in the heart of Tuscany, was exactly that.
Sylvia and Charles had already said their legal “I dos” back home in Canada. What they wanted in Italy was something more personal—an emotional, honest celebration shared with the people who meant the most to them. Their friends didn’t just come for the wedding—they were already dreaming of a Dolce Vita escape, and this felt like the perfect excuse. What unfolded was a few days of slow mornings, shared meals, and a ceremony filled with presence and feeling.
Their vows were spoken with quiet intensity—shaky hands, rolling tears, full hearts, and that unmistakable energy that happens when people truly mean every word. Their day was about being seen, being held, and being together in a place that felt timeless.
They trusted me fully, and that trust opened the space for images that feel both honest and composed—a quiet balance between candid moments and refined editorial.
If you're imagining your own Castello di Badia wedding, let this be a reminder: the most meaningful celebrations don’t need much. Just intention, a setting you love, and the people who show up for you.
