If you close your eyes and picture rolling hills, endless vineyards, stone farmhouses, and the golden light of sunset… you’re probably thinking of Tuscany.
But this is actually Castelvetro di Modena—a hidden gem in the heart of Emilia-Romagna, with landscapes that rival the most iconic views of the Val d’Orcia.
This engagement photo session took place among the vineyards and trails surrounding the charming village of Castelvetro di Modena, where nature and history blend seamlessly, and every corner looks like a painting.
As a wedding photographer, I believe that the authenticity of a place is what truly makes every visual story special. Here, in the Modenese hills, couples can enjoy a romantic and intimate experience—perfect not only for a pre-wedding photoshoot, but also as a location for a destination wedding in Italy.
Castelvetro is the perfect alternative for those dreaming of a Tuscan-style wedding or photo session—yet with something extra: more privacy, less mass tourism, and a kind of genuine charm that wins you over at first glance.
If you’re planning your wedding in Italy and looking for a place that’s authentic, scenic, and still relatively undiscovered by international crowds, let yourself be inspired by these images.
I’d be honored to walk alongside you and capture your story with discretion, empathy, and natural light.
