Elegant Venice Wedding Editorial with Cute Fluffy Pup!

From Lisa Giolo: "Since when we are single, part of a couple and then you form a married couple, your furry friends are always by your side sharing with you the good and bad moments you are going through so why don’t you include them on your big day?

They are often the longest and the strongest relationship because they become our soul mates, our best friends, and sometimes even our surrogate children, so why don’t we capture your beloved pet with you?

I strongly believe in our sweet connections we form with our pets in our entire lives, so when I had the idea to plan a particular wedding styled photo shoot in Venice I thought that I should show one of my best service I propose when one of my couples want to get married in Italy with their lovely four legs family member. So including Forrest, as Martina and Matteo’s sweet and lovely puppy in the refined and special location as Venice is, and as an advocate animals lover, it was a dream at me!!!

There are various ways you can include animals into your wedding: you can choose a venue with a connection to animals, or get ready at the venue where your cat can enjoy the comfort and relax of it, your dog can be there right by your side in a key role such as ring bearer or you can plan a pre or post wedding photo shoot. It depends if it’s a cat, a dog or a bunny; it depends on the location, the venue, the ceremony, and the reception, it depends on the animal’s character and temperament but the most important thing is that you should take care of their welfare, always! This needs to be acknowledged so, due to Forrest’s young age and the crowded but iconic place as St. Mark’s Square in Venice, we decide to take pictures in autumn, half day and at sunrise so not during high season and with a mite climate, reducing Forrest’s stress at the minimum!

For couples and their pets, this pre or post-wedding photo shoot could be one of a great option to evaluate and include their four-legged family member in their love affair sharing their emotions in many significant ways and marking these creatures such key members of our families and big key role on their wedding day.

Martina, Matteo, and Forrest’s stunning beauty and their deepest emotions shared with us combined with the unique beauty of Venice, the City of Water, made the most breathtaking and unforgettable intimate wedding styled photo shoot we all ever felt."
