REAL EXPERIENCES FROM MY CLIENTS

Carol took some absolutely beautiful photos of our family while we were on vacation. She was great with our two
small children and very friendly, flexible, and understanding the entire time. She also has excellent guidance on
what to where and the best places to have the photos taken. We would definitely recommend booking her.

Bernadett DeLise

Highly recommend booking with Carol. She made the entire experience welcoming & memorable, which I say as someone who is very much not used to getting her picture taken. I also appreciated her connection to the area & Lago Maggiore. Spending time making memories this way was 10/10 worth it.

Helen Keung

We had the exquisite pleasure to discover the artwork of Carol & Antonio displaying amazing tones of lights and colors. Through their camera, they managed to capture an enveloping atmosphere that seemed to sing for us .. our moves were so fitting the natural sceneries and every picture seem alive, in motion and translates a layer of our emotions at that very moments! Their snaps are also linking our admiration for Mother Nature’s wonders and our wish to deepen the inspiration in there!

She has the gift to make you feel comfortable and still gives everything to get the best shot! she was very creative and patient with me and my dog.
