Welcome

Welcome to Ortica Wedding

Ortica Wedding is a female-owned wedding photography studio run by two friends, Daphne and Cristiana, who describe themselves as based in Central Italy and photograph destination weddings in Umbria, Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast and Lake Como. Their work mixes unposed reportage with fashion-inspired portraits, natural light and flash, and they cover every wedding together.

Ortica Wedding is Daphne and Cristiana, who introduce themselves as women, friends and wedding photographers. They photograph every wedding as a pair, so that two people are watching from two angles and fewer moments are missed. Their own site calls the studio female-owned and based in Central Italy, with a love of destination weddings and travel.

We are not just photographers, but storytelling addicts.Ortica Wedding (official website, About page)
