Gay wedding photographer in Puglia. Capturing Love: Our Amazing Journey with Mark and Kelzo

Today, we are thrilled to share an extraordinary chapter of our work, a journey that began exactly one year ago in September 2022. It’s the story of Mark and Kelzo, two kindred souls who traveled all the way from the Philippines to the beautiful Puglia, Italy, to share moments of joy, love, and a dream that became a reality.

A Memorable Beginning: The Welcome Party at Masseria Borgo Ritella

It all started with a warm welcome party at the enchanting Masseria Borgo Ritella. Mark and Kelzo, dressed in white outfits radiating happiness, captured our hearts from the very beginning. Attention to detail created an intimate and emotional atmosphere, with hand-painted place mats featuring the faces of each guest.

We began the day with a brief portrait session, capturing the essence of their love and the happiness they exuded. Then came the moment to delight the palate with authentic Puglian delicacies, pizza, drinks, and music that warmed the evening.

The Wedding Day: Masseria Alchimia

The second day was the culmination of their dream: the wedding day at the magnificent Masseria Alchimia. Every detail was a gesture of love, from personalized chocolate boxes to elegant hand-embroidered ring holders featuring their faces.

The ceremony was a whirlwind of emotions. The notes of “Best Life Draft,” a song written specifically for them, marked the entrance to the ceremony. As Mark and Kelzo exchanged vows, tears flowed freely, not only among the guests but even among us, behind our cameras; we couldn’t hold back our tears.

The ceremony culminated in a romantic kiss and a rainbow fireworks display that soared behind a majestic centuries-old olive tree, a symbol of prosperity and eternal love.

An Unforgettable Celebration: Dinner and Party

The celebration continued with a dinner rich in traditional Puglian flavors. Guests were entertained by various singers, including some friends of the couple with extraordinary voices, adding a touch of magic to the event.

The most emotional moment of the evening was the cake cutting, accompanied by spectacular fireworks, followed by Mark and Kelzo’s first dance to the tune of their song “Until you came and braught the light, until you cam and I’m alive”, moving everyone present.

Closing Party: Day Three at Pettolecchia Lido

On the third day, Mark and Kelzo chose to conclude it by the sea, at Pettolecchia Lido, a perfect place to wrap up three unforgettable days of festivities. Here, the newlyweds and guests enjoyed the sea, dined, and danced to the sound of waves as the backdrop.

In conclusion, Mark and Kelzo’s wedding was a genuine dream turned into reality. An exhilarating journey through the culture, love, and beauty of Puglia that will remain indelible in our hearts and in the memories shared with this incredible couple. The story of Mark and Kelzo reminds us that love is a universal language that can bring people from different parts of the world together in a warm embrace under the Italian sun.

Mark, Kelzo… we love you so much!
