Donatella Corriero Photography's approach is both artistic and deeply human, grounded in creating an elevated experience for each couple.

What would you like couples to know about you?

I care deeply about connection. I want each couple to feel seen, understood and completely at

ease in front of my camera. I’m not there to stage your day but to interpret it through a

curated, editorial lens that still feels real. I invest time in understanding your personalities,

your dynamics and what matters most to you so that the images reflect your truth, not just the

aesthetics.

Where are you based?

I’m based in Puglia, Italy, but I regularly work across Europe.

Do you travel for weddings?

Absolutely. Traveling is an essential part of my work and inspiration. I photograph

destination weddings and elopements and often work with couples from major cities like

London, New York, Paris and Berlin who choose Italy or Europe for their celebration. Next

year will bring several exciting international weddings that reflect the global direction my

work is taking.

How would you describe your style?

Minimal, editorial and intimate. My work is a balance between quiet moments and strong

compositions, with a clean aesthetic inspired by fashion, architecture and analog film

photography. I aim for timeless imagery with a modern sensibility.

What inspires you?

Architecture, natural light, movement, cinema, honest emotion, and the quiet details that

often go unnoticed. I am inspired by places with strong character, minimal design, and people

who fully inhabit their own story.

How would you describe your working style?

Calm, intuitive and observant. I give subtle direction when needed but I mostly blend into

your day, allowing you to be present while I capture everything with a thoughtful, editorial

eye. I work with intention, never rushing or forcing moments.

Do you shoot digitally, on film or both?

Both. I love incorporating 35mm analog film into my coverage to add depth, texture and a

timeless feel to the story.

Where would you love to travel to for work?

My dream destinations to photograph weddings in are Japan, Canada, Greece and California.

I’m always drawn to places that blend striking landscapes, refined design and unique cultural

atmospheres.

Who is your dream client?

Design-conscious couples who value art, architecture and authenticity. People who are drawn

to minimalism and editorial aesthetics but want their wedding to feel effortless, emotional

and honest. Couples who trust the process and appreciate photography as a meaningful part

of their experience.

What is your advice to couples getting married?

Embrace the moment fully. Trust your team, stay present and let your day unfold naturally.
