Destination Wedding Photographer in Sicily

Your Destination Wedding Photographer in Sicily

We are Elisa Bellanti and Piero Matteucci — destination wedding photographer in Sicily, and a couple in life. From our studio nestled between Taormina and the Valle dei Templi, we document love stories with elegance, honesty, and soul. Our style is discreet and emotional — never posed, never predictable.

If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding photographer in Sicily who sees beyond the surface and captures the heartbeat of your story, you’re in the right place.

How It All Started

Our story began not behind the lens, but on stage — as musicians living the thrill of live emotion. One day, a friend asked us to photograph a baptism. That single request turned into a calling. Since then, every wedding has been a journey into truth, intimacy, and visual poetry. That’s how Foto Event Studio was born. We are a photographer in Sicily

Our Philosophy: Emotion Over Perfection

We don’t direct. We don’t stage. As destination wedding photographer in Sicily, we observe, feel, and frame. Every couple is unique, every light a clue. We blend reportage and cinematic vision, creating photographs that will still move you decades from now — not because they’re trendy, but because they’re true.

From Sicily to the World

We work with international couples who choose Sicily as the stage for their vows — from the timeless charm of Taormina to the wild cliffs of Scala dei Turchi. Whether you're eloping with a view or celebrating with a hundred guests, we follow the light, the silence, the glance that speaks. And we tell your story with grace, presence, and depth.

Elisa

Photographer

Eggplant pizza is her religion, quirky socks her unsolicited manifesto. Elisa tells love stories through light and silence. She’s not the kind who asks you to smile — she waits for it to happen on its own. She travels with a bag that holds half a studio, a list of dreams, and at least two pens that don’t work. And if she looks at you while you're speaking, just know: she's already taking the picture in her mind.

Piero

Videographer

A lifelong cinema enthusiast, he has directed and produced numerous short films before turning visual storytelling into his profession. When he’s not behind the camera, you’ll likely find him in the kitchen — whipping up a chocolate cake or a tray of cookies, giving shape to his other great passion: good food. He loves TV series (with unwavering loyalty to Game of Thrones) and music — especially the kind sung… by himself. It’s not unusual to hear him humming a tune between takes, or see him break into a surprise dance to make the couple smile.
