Irene and Francesco's Pre Wedding

I took the photos of this post a couple of weeks ago at the beautiful Relais Briuccia, in the small village in Sicily where I come from. Irene and Francesco decided to have their pre-wedding session at this astonishing venue, which also has a restaurant run by international chef Damiano Ferraro.  Hope you like the photos!

Elisabeth and Nevio's photo shoot

Summer is finally here and as every year this is a very busy time indeed. Apart from shooting weddings and portraiture sessions, I have been working on some architectural work for an international practice in central London. Plus we are working on our new website -- actually it is still being updated but if you would like to have a sneak peek, here is the link: www.samanthacapitano.com.

The last two months have been full of fantastic news and new projects: I have been featured in some UK and Italian magazines/websites: Perfect Wedding on sale in May, twice in Wedding Flowers Magazine, Fifties Wedding Blog on line and the Italian newspaper "La Sicilia". Also we are almost ready to open a second studio in Italy and are getting ready too for a new exhibition that will be held this August. Lots of work!

The photos of this post are from a photo shoot I did with this fantastic couple, Elisabeth and Nevio. I was very glad to shoot some photos of them at the beautiful park in Ilford close to where they live, and it was lovely to get to know this lovely couple better. Elisabeth is from Nigeria and Nevio is Sicilian; they met in Palermo while Elisabeth was actually living in Rome and then they decided to move to London where they are now based and are expecting a baby. Good luck to them!! :-)

Karen and Russell's Pre Wedding

Karen and Russell are a lovely couple and are getting married soon at the Chelsea Old Town Hall in London. These photos are from the pre-wedding photo shoot that we did at the end of March. We spent the day around the City near the Royal Exchange: starting with photos at the Gherkin, then we found a small church with a lovely red door and finally we finished up having a lot of fun at the Leadenhall Market. All in all it was a lovely day, and we were so very lucky with the weather too!
