Your event is not just a day, it is your love story. Your story deserves to be told in an artful, beautiful, memorable way that will speak to your love for generations to come.

FROM DAY ONE I WILL WORK WITH YOU TO ENSURE YOUR DREAM DAY IS CAPTURED IN A WAY THAT CELEBRATES YOUR LOVE AND IS WORTHY OF YOUR WEDDING DAY.

I want to highlight all those details you have taken care so long, capturing the naturalness and intimacy of your every moment. I want to enhance your authenticity, the uniqueness that distinguishes you as a couple.
My mission is to plan, prepare and create in a way that frees you to relax, enjoy and be fully present to every second of your big day. From timeline planning, to location scouting, I pour myself into the process so you can live in every beautiful moment.

Being present is that precious ability to stop and absorb the feelings and the emotions of life's big moments. From day one of your wedding planning, it's my mission to plan, prepare and create in a way that frees you to fully experience every moment of your day. I go above and beyond, with careful consideration and that extra personal touch to create  your once in a lifetime experience. 

PRESS PAUSE ON THE MOST MEANINGFUL DAY OF YOUR LIFE

EXPERIENCE

THE

I live in Italy near to French Riviera.
I photograph in South France and all over Italy:  Lake Como, Tuscany, Lake Garda, Apulia, Sicily. 

I mostly work with my fellow second shooter. I try to be as less intrusive as possible during the event, so I keep it simple. Sometimes I will need an extra assistant, especially if your guests' number is higher than 150 pax. Sometimes is not necessary to be in two and I feel relaxed to work alone for intimate weddings. Every wedding is different, so please drop me a line info@phoemstudio.com so I can make the perfect quotation that will fit your needs.

The best way to contact me is through my contact form here or by writing at info@phoemstudio.com

Yes, please! I would love to hear your plans for a sunrise session or maybe a stunning vineyard tour! I also offer weekend or three days packages. 

Yes! Absolutely. I would love to meet you in my studio or to have a video call.

As all destination weddings are different, travel and accommodation costs are not included in my collections. However, once I have discussed a few details about your wedding, I will be able to put together a travel quote. I’m always transparent with all travel costs and pricing and will quote everything ahead of time. Unless we make a special arrangement, all travel and accommodation with be handled and booked by myself. 

A sneak peek with a small selection of images will be delivered within one week of your wedding date. Your full photo gallery will be ready within three months, however, during busy times of the year, please allow up to four months. 
Of course I will do my best so you can revive your dream as quick as possible!

"THE PHOTOS REALLY CAPTURE OUR BOND!"

what people say

the process

working with me
 After the day, I will send an exciting sneak peek within a week of the wedding. I put my heart and soul into editing, curating and preparing your full gallery of images before you receive a very exciting final delivery, full of your precious memories.
Finally it’s here! Let’s relax and celebrate! On one hand, I love to blend in like guests, documenting and capturing little moments as they happen. On the other, there are situations I will direct you ensure you look and feel your absolute best.
I believe that being well prepared is the key to achieving a breath-taking set of photographs. I ask that you fill out a questionnaire and send me a wedding day agenda at least 1 months prior so I can prepare for your magical day. 
I love to meet other romantics. Our first meeting,  via video call or in the studio will be a chance to dream about your day, will explore your vision, learn everything about your needs and wants and provide you with all the information you need.

warmest words from my couples

Gelmina is a master of her craft.
We never get bored looking at our wedding photos again and again. They are magical, refined and naturally beautiful! Always available, she seeks beautiful locations to take pictures and gives best advices. She is fast and professional, absolutely to be recommended!
The photos are gorgeous!

"Photos are an art."

MARINA & GIANLUCA

Gelmina is honestly nothing short of incredible. A very talented photographer with an amazing eye for detail. She perfectly captured our special moments. Gelmina is very organised and experienced , and helped us; a camera shy couple feel very comfortable infront of the lense, perfectly capturing our big day. Phoem Studio delivered work beyond our expectations. We are so grateful we chose to use her as our wedding photographer. 

"We are so grateful we chose to use her
as our wedding photographer."

Bronnie & Tara


Gelmina for us is the best photographer! All the photos of our weddings are wonderful and make everyone emotional. She was super helpful, kind, listens and satisfies the customer's needs. So easy to work with! 

"We could not have chosen a better photographer for our wedding!"

CECILIA & THOMAS

She's really amazing photographer. She did a wonderful job at our weddings, the photos are over our expectations! Even in the service following the wedding date she proved to be available to our needs.
 I can just recommend her to everyone! 

"Best photographer we could not ask for."

Giulia & Andrea

She is more than a photographer! Beyond those lenses  there's not only a professional, tireless worker but the girl, the person .. always shines through!
She's able to capture the highlights of these unique and special days, with discretion and experience.
Even with an introverted husband like mine, after a few shots, she managed to find harmony and bring out the "best side" of him, in every sense!
I would not have changed her for any other and I am delighted that this opportunity has given me the opportunity to meet a wonderful  person  as she is!
Thank you G.

"Marvelous Gelmina!"

Martina & Matteo
