Destination wedding photography in Tuscany, Italy
M+T, TUSCANY, ITALY
Last autumn, we were lucky enough to join renowned wedding photographer Marta Ilardo at Casa Bianca in Tuscany, Italy, to second shoot the wedding of Mariana and Tom.
They'd travelled all the way from the USA with their closest family and friends for the most incredible party and celebration of their love.

She finished the look with a simple pastel bouquet from Fiori Quotidiani.
