frequently asked questions
what we say
where are you based?
We are Italians, and the majority of us live in Veneto.
We can legally work anywhere in Europe and the Schengen area (and we can help you translate all those gestures we Italians do.)
What are your rates?
Our typical, full-day wedding services, including photography and videography, have an average price of € 12,000 – a bit more for hybrid digital and film photography.
Many of our couples look for two or more days of coverage, so of course we have options for it – you can get them through our pricing guide.
For elopements and microweddings, our combined photography and videography collections average between € 6,500-9,500.
how do you work on the wedding day?
Just like your guests would probably describe us: present, but never in the way.
We’ll guide you whenever it helps, but we’ll never turn your wedding into a photoshoot. Whether we’re taking portraits or documenting moments as they happen, our goal is always the same: to create beautiful images without interrupting the experience itself.
Photography and videography work as one team, so there’s no competing for moments or asking you to do things twice. We respect the flow of the day, and do everything we can to make you forget there are cameras around.
We also dress for the occasion, keep our equipment as discreet as possible, and become part of the celebration. You’ll probably catch us getting emotional during the vows, laughing with your guests, and absolutely dancing with you by the end of the night.
how many photographers/videographers will there be?
For a typical wedding day, there will be four of us: two photographers and two videographers.
For intimate weddings, and if the schedule of the day allows, we can build a three-person team to keep our numbers low.
On the contrary, if you have a huge number of guests, we recommend adding an assistant, so it will be five or more of us.
what if we're awkward in front of the camera?
It’s really a matter of trust.
We don’t think there’s such a thing as an unphotogenic person – just photographers you don’t quite vibe with.
It might sound cliché, but growing up as women made us painfully aware of our own insecurities. We know what it feels like to worry about how you’ll look in photos, or to put your trust in someone else’s hands.
We read the room, we never force anything, and if there’s something you’re self-conscious about, tell us. Chances are, we’ve felt exactly the same way ourselves.
How do you edit your photos and videos?
We call our editing approach “true to color, but better.” We created our own color grading system to keep all skin tones warm and real, environments natural, and your wedding colors exactly as you planned them – avoiding temporary coloring trends that rarely age well.
Inspired by classic film photography, we add a fine grain to our images, ensuring an organic, non-plastic finish that prints wonderfully. When we shoot actual film, we specifically choose Kodak Portra because its colors align perfectly with our vision of what a timeless image should look like.
Every gallery and film is hand-edited in-house. We don’t use AI to make creative decisions, like culling or batch-editing the entire gallery. When needed, subtle skin and background retouching is done in a very soft and unnoticeable way.
And if when we deliver there’s anything you’d like us to tweak, one round of revisions is included (we’re proud to say it rarely happens.)
what is your booking process?
Pretty simple.
Once you (or your planners) get in touch, Ines, our booking manager, will be the first to say ciao. She’ll check our availability, send you our Pricing Guide, and help you find the collection that makes the most sense for your plans.
If you have any questions – or you’d simply like to meet your team before booking – we’re always happy to jump on a call. But if you’d rather keep everything over email, that’s fine too.
Once you know it’s us, we’ll send over the contract. You sign it, pay the booking fee, and you’re officially on our calendar!
Can we book just the photography or videography service?
Absolutely. Some of our couples book us for photography or videography only.
But it’s when we work together that we really shine.
We’ve been a team since day one, so photography and videography have never been two separate services for us.
If you’re looking for the best experience we can offer, that’s where you’ll find it.
How do you keep our photos and videos safe?
From the moment we start shooting, your files exist in duplicate: our cameras write to two memory cards simultaneously, and we keep one copy on us at all times while traveling.
Once back at the studio, we back up everything across multiple on- and off-line drives before we even open our editing software. As outlined in our contract, we archive all your raw and edited content for a minimum of three years, giving you complete peace of mind.
when will we receive the photos/videos?
You won’t have to wait long.
In a couple of weeks, you’ll receive a highlight gallery with 100+ photos and a highlight reel. Your full gallery and your film will be delivered within 90 working days.
If you really can’t wait that long, we also offer some faster delivery options (even day-after ones).
do you offer other services, such as couple sessions?
Si.
These are probably the sessions where we get to be the most creative. Sometimes we’ll end up chasing the perfect light, other times we’ll convince you to try the best tramezzini you’ve ever had (it’s still a mystery to us that they’re not famous outside Italy).
The best photos usually happen when we’re doing something together, not just taking pictures. Our portrait experiences start at €1,200 for two hours of photography, with longer sessions available, such as for wedding proposals.
Do you shoot film, too?
Some of us do.
Film photography is available as an add-on. If you’re dreaming of it, tell us early on so we can match you with the right photographer.
What about content creation?
We get it – content creation has become part of many weddings, and we totally understand why.
The difference is that our content creator is already part of the team. They work just like we do, know when to step in, when to step back, and fit naturally into the flow of the day. You can see a couple of our latest content creation works (alongside our wedding photo and video services) here or here.

what our couples say
My story with ManiSol started when my then-fiancee and I were planning a Lake Como elopement and were looking for someone to capture our day. I found them after some thorough research and fell in love with their whimsical and artistic style of photography.
Fast forward two years, we pivoted from an intimate elopement to a grand gorgeous wedding, and Selene and Alba pivoted right alongside us. Of all the vendors we worked with, they remain #1 in our hearts – nobody else even compares. At every step along the way, they were always at the ready with brilliant suggestions, an amazing sounding board to bounce ideas off of, quick and thoughtful in their correspondence, all while being two of the funniest, most joyous, and kind-hearted people I’ve ever met!
In the year since our wedding, I’ve been very lucky to have kept in touch with both Selene and Alba, and I’ve already let them know it is of vital importance that they remain available to help us capture our vow renewal in a few years :)
Suffice to say, I give my highest recommendations without any reservation to Selene, Alba, and the rest of the Manisol team. We love you guys!! <3

My husband and I just got married on May 18th in Ravello, Italy. Our amazing wedding planner recommended ManiSol to capture the photo/video of our wedding weekend. We can confidently say… it was the BEST decision we could have made!
Alba, Selene, and all of the other members of the ManiSol team were truly amazing. From our first video chat with them to the wedding weekend itself, they were kind, classy, reliable, professional… and of course BEYOND talented. Their style is truly unmatched, and we could not be happier with how our photos and videos turned out. They went above and beyond to listen to our vision and style, and make sure the photo/video reflected that. We were so impressed with how many special moments they managed to capture without disrupting the moment or flow. So many beautiful photos and video clips I saw and thought, “I didn’t even see them there capturing this!” They blended in seamlessly to the event and were able to capture even the quiet moments beautifully.
Beyond their skill, they are just kind people. You can tell they truly care… not just about the quality of the work itself, but you as people. Even after the wedding, they have gone above and beyond to be readily available, and answer any questions we have. Their time, care, and dedication goes beyond just the day of the wedding. We are blessed that they were the ones there to share intimate moments with us on our wedding day.
So, if you are considering ManiSol to capture the photo/video of your wedding, the answer is without a doubt YES! It will be the best decision you make for your wedding, and you will have the most beautiful memories to last a lifetime. Alba, Selene, and the ManiSol team… thank you and we love you!!!

As a LGBTQ+ couple having a destination wedding in Italy, it was very important for us to find photography and videography vendor(s) that would make us feel comfortable on our special day. We wanted people who made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and could bring out the true essence of our love during the special weekend. Selene, Alba, and the rest of the ManiSol Wedding team did just that and more! They are the most amazing group of photographers and videographers you could ever work with!
Right from the beginning, we clicked with Selene and Alba, and they felt like more than just vendors but friends. They were able to vocalize to us their style and approach to photographing/videoing couples (specifically a gay couple) as well as they listened to what we were looking for from our photos and videos. They made us feel comfortable and at ease and this was all just over Zoom originally.
During the wedding weekend, they continued with that same energy and helped us bring our wedding to life by capturing all the big and small moments for us to remember it always. They blended in with our guests and made them feel comfortable as well in front of the camera. We felt so fortunate to have the team at ManiSol Wedding capture our special weekend. (We loved them so much we insisted we take a photograph with them before they finished up at our reception!)
If you are looking for an amazing team that will bring comfort and fun to your wedding photography and videography, then look no further! They are the best!

Out of all the vendors we used for our wedding, I was the most impressed with ManiSol!
From the initial meeting, we knew that we were in good hands, and as we communicated with them throughout our engagement we felt more and more comfortable. We hired them for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner and wedding.
The team was extremely professional and made the experience so much fun!
When we hit hiccups during the wedding, it was Selene and Alba that were quick to jump in and provide solutions (they seriously saved our grand exit at the last minute!!).
Beyond that of their professionalism and kindness, our photos and videos were AMAZING!!!
We get so many compliments on them and I honestly look at them every day. They were so quick to give us sneak peeks which was so special.
If I had to re-plan my whole wedding all over again, I would immediately book ManiSol Wedding and not even give it a second thought. HIGHLY recommend!!!
Ellie & Garrett
Reflecting a little over one year after our wedding, I can’t say enough about what a wonderful experience it was working with the ManiSol team.
Alba and Selene immediately felt like friends to us, and we were drawn to the diversity and inclusivity their brand embodies. On the day of our wedding, they arrived with big smiles and jumped right into action, but also seamlessly blended in with our family and friends. They captured all the important moments and truly memorialized the essence of all the emotions we felt throughout the day.
Every time I look at our photos and videos (which is often!), I am blown away by how the feelings in those captured moments are just as fresh as they were one year ago. This is due entirely to the talent of ManiSol!
Incredibly wonderful people who truly want to help create the best day of your life in their own special way, I would recommend the ManiSol team to any couple looking to have a lifetime of memories.
Thank you so much, ladies! <3
