Engagement Photo Session in Turin and Piedmont, Italy
An engagement photo session is an experience designed for couples who want to capture this special chapter of their story. Whether you’ve just started planning your wedding, want to immortalize the proposal moment, or simply wish to gift yourselves a beautiful memory together, this session is the perfect way to celebrate your love.
Unlike a pre-wedding shoot, which often serves a practical purpose in preparation for the big day, an engagement session can stand on its own. It’s a gift you give yourselves as a couple—no deadlines, no pressure.
An engagement session is perfect for you if…
You want to celebrate your proposal with romantic photos that capture your joy
You’d love couple portraits to use for save the dates, your wedding website, or invitations
You’re looking for a relaxed, fun photography experience to get to know your photographer before the big day
You want professional memories of this time in your life, regardless of when the wedding will be
Why book an engagement photo session
Being engaged is a one-of-a-kind moment: the excitement of the proposal is still fresh, plans for the future are taking shape, everything feels possible. This special feeling deserves to be captured in images you’ll treasure forever—because the emotions you experience during a proposal are unique and will never happen quite the same way again.
An engagement session also gives you the chance to get comfortable in front of a professional camera. You’ll discover what it feels like, learn to relax, and let yourself be guided.
And if you choose me for your wedding too, we’ll already have built a foundation of trust and connection by the time your big day arrives.
How it works
Discovery call
Everything starts with a video call or a meeting where you tell me your story. If you’re booking as a couple, I’ll ask how you met, how the proposal went, what makes you unique together. These details help me design a session that truly reflects who you are.
If only one of you is reaching out because you’re planning to capture a surprise proposal, I’ll ask about your vision and help you make the surprise even more magical!
Choosing the location
Together, we’ll find the perfect spot for your photos. It could be where you first met, where the proposal happened, a place you both love, or simply a stunning setting for romantic photos. Piedmont offers endless possibilities: from the UNESCO vineyards of the Langhe to the elegant arcades of Turin, from Alpine lakes to charming medieval villages.
The photo session
The session lasts approximately 90 minutes in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. I’ll naturally guide you into spontaneous poses, moments of interaction, and small gestures that tell the story of your connection. You don’t need to be models—my job is to make you feel at ease and bring out the best in you.
If we’re capturing a surprise proposal, we’ll come up with a plan so I can stay hidden and photograph the moment discreetly. Afterwards, I’ll join you and we’ll continue with a relaxed couple session.
Image delivery
After the session, I carefully select and edit the best photos. You’ll receive your images in high-resolution digital format, ready to print, share, or use for your wedding stationery
Ideas for your engagement session
Golden hour session
The golden hour offers warm, enveloping light that’s perfect for romantic photos. I recommend this option if you love dreamy atmospheres and warm tones.
Vineyard picnic
For couples who love nature and great wine, a session in the Langhe or Monferrato hills with an impromptu picnic can be an unforgettable experience.
City stroll
Turin offers captivating urban backdrops: historic cafés, elegant arcades, beautiful piazzas. If you’re a city-loving couple, we can capture your story in the places that define your everyday life.
Mountain adventure
For sporty, adventurous couples, a session in the Italian Alps delivers spectacular panoramas and one-of-a-kind photos. And who knows—perhaps during an “innocent” hike, a surprise proposal might happen!
At home
One of the most intimate options: I photograph you in your own space, surrounded by your things, while you make breakfast or relax on the couch. Authentic photos that tell the story of your real life together.

Frequently asked questions
How far before the wedding should we book our engagement session?
If you’d like to use the images for save the dates or invitations, I recommend scheduling the session at least 6 months before the wedding. If it’s simply a keepsake for you, any time works.
What if it rains on the day of our session?
No worries—we can reschedule if possible, or embrace the rain for a creative session with umbrellas. We can also consider an indoor location if you’d prefer not to wait.
Can we include our pet?
Absolutely. Dogs, cats, and other furry friends are welcome—they make the photos even more special.
