COMO EDITION

From the baroque grandeur of Villa Balbiano to the lakeside terraces of Villa del Balbianello, Lake Como offers some of Europe's most extraordinary wedding settings. We photograph regularly at Villa Erba, Villa Carlotta, Villa Cipressi, Villa Melzi, and other iconic estates along the shore. Each villa has its own rhythm of light, architecture, and atmosphere, and we know how to read all of them.

From hidden moments at Villa del Balbianello to vintage boat sessions at golden hour, every "yes" deserves to be remembered.

 

WE ARE 

VADIM & IRINA 

We, together with our team, are here to help you create unforgettable memories of your trip to Lake Como.

 

Whether it's a proposal under the loggia of Villa del Balbianello, an intimate elopement at sunset, a grand wedding celebration, or simply a romantic getaway worth remembering  - we know the lake inside out. Every venue, every hidden garden, every angle of light at every time of year.

 

We'll help you choose the right place and season, introduce you to the planners, florists, and stylists we trust, and even help with the permits most couples don't know about.

Your story deserves more than a photographer. It deserves someone who already knows the place where it's happening.

 

WHAT WE SHOOT

 

WEDDINGS
Full-day coverage from morning preparations through the late-night celebration. We work with planners and venues across Lake Como to capture every detail without intruding on the day.

 

ELOPEMENTS
Intimate ceremonies for two, photographed with the same care as a two hundred guest wedding. Villa del Balbianello, lakeside gardens, vintage boats, wherever you choose to say yes.

 

PROPOSALS
Surprise proposals planned and photographed across Lake Como, from the loggia of Villa del Balbianello to golden hour boat sessions. Discreet coverage from the first moment to the celebration after.

 

ENGAGEMENTS AND ROMANTIC GETAWAYS
A relaxed shoot in a place that means something to you. A way to remember a trip, an anniversary, or simply each other.

REVIEWS

Omar & Venessa

We couldn’t be happier with Vadim and Irina as our wedding photographers. From our first meeting with Vadim, we knew we’d found the perfect fit. He was kind, personable, and truly passionate about his work, which shows in every photo.

On the day of the wedding, they worked seamlessly with our other vendors, family, and friends, treating everyone with kindness and respect. Their ability to capture every detail and emotion was incredible, and the photos are a cherished reminder of our special day… And all of your photos belong in Vogue, hahaha!

Vadim & Iryna were absolutely amazing! Delivered the photos within a timely manner, edited them amazingly and were so open to feedback. Their communication and work ethic on the day was great! Vadim really understood our vision for our wedding and captured all the moments we had wanted captured. Really went above and beyond! Could not recommend Vadim enough!
