Wedding Photographer: Ravello Town Hall & Villa Cimbrone, Ravello, Amalfi Coast, Italy: Ian & Sam

September 4th, 2010 admin 1 comment

Andy & Amy were the wedding photographers at Ravello Town Hall & Villa Cimbrone, Ravello, Amalfi Coast for the wedding of Ian & Sam.

Since becoming wedding photographers years ago we have heard lots of great reviews about Villa Cimbrone in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast. We finally got the opportunity to photograph there for the wedding of Ian & Sam on the 28th August. Villa Cimbrone more than lived up to its incredible reputation – what a jaw-dropping place it is! The view from the terrace is reputed to be one of, if not THE best view in the whole of Italy and is certainly a sight that will stick with us for many years to come.

A wedding photographer’s dream, Ravello is perfect in every way – an elegant little town, high up in the hills with gorgeous, narrow streets and blooming with colourful flowers. I have to also mention the Infinito Suite at the 5 star Palazzo Sasso in which Sam and her bridesmaids got ready – Wow! I could have spent a week or two there with its stunning views and jacuzzi on the terrace. If only!

Ian’s vibrant waistcoat looked great. He fitted in perfectly in such a colourful little town.

Just married! I bet they were finding rice in various places for days afterward!

The bridal party pose for the formal group shot. What a stunning back-drop. We don’t normally post examples of the formal images because I think many photographers hate doing them (as do many couples!) But, for many, they’re an essential part of a wedding – a historical record of the people their and what they wore etc. When you’re as organised as Ian & Sam were on their wedding day, these images can be taken pretty quickly and then everyone gets back to the party. Well worth the effort eh?

The Cloisters in Sorrento is a beautiful place to marry, especially if you fancy getting married outdoors – something that’s not common at all in Italy.

Love this! Louise had been looking forward to an ice-cream all morning and took the opportunity the moment the ceremony had finished. Heaven!

The wedding party walked to Photo Bar in Sorrento after The Cloisters ceremony. They laughed all afternoon long.

The bride’s sister Hannah and her boyfriend Mark wanted a portrait of themselves – but something a little different …

The views from Sorrento are spectacular: here you can see the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius in the background.
