Your Italian Wedding Photographer
My name is Jules Bower, and I am a professional Italian wedding photographer. I’m English and fluent in Italian thanks to my Italian wife. She is a top Italian wedding planner.
I focus on beautiful imagery, and she creates flawless events. We like to work together but you can also just hire me to photograph your wedding!

So, you’re looking for an award-winning Italian wedding photographer or considering getting married in Italy.
Selecting an award-winning, top professional wedding photographer in Italy requires careful consideration. I know how many studios and websites there are online; it is undoubtedly an overwhelming and time-consuming task.
If you allow yourself to browse this website, I promise you will:
- Discover many desirable wedding destinations.
- Get free advice and ideas on how to plan a perfect wedding in Italy.
- Be inspired by the success stories of other couples’ weddings.
- Notice my distinctive style of wedding photography.
- Sense that being an Italian wedding photographer is not just my job – it’s my passion.
How Do You Differ From Other Italian Wedding Photographers?
Firstly, I am British, not Italian, so English is my mother tongue. My wife is Italian, so I am also fluent in Italian. I have been a professional wedding photographer in Italy and abroad since 2003.
As a photographer, Italy is inspirational. I find the colors so romantic and luxurious. When I photograph a breathtaking sunset in Tuscany, I want my image to precisely record that beauty. Later, when viewing that photo, it should bring the memories, sensations, and feelings alive in the most accurate, genuine, authentic way possible.
“I am not a fan of images that are pale, hazy, blurry interpretations of reality. If the sky is blue, then it should be blue, not white.”
Destination Wedding Photographer In Italy: Style Brief
As an Italian destination wedding photographer and bona fide creative, I revel in the light, art, architecture, countryside, and landscapes. I use the olives, cypress trees, white roads, rolling hills, vineyards, and gorgeous sunsets to create works of art that capture your location and the incredible light.
An Italian wedding photographer should use their surroundings; after all, you are having a destination wedding. The photos need to show where you are; otherwise, you may as well stay home!
Imagine you have an elderly relative who is unable to attend your wedding. When you are back home, you will sit with them and share your wedding photos. The images must help them understand exactly where you went, what it was like, and how your day went from start to finish.
Having seen the images, they will then fully understand and appreciate why you went all the way to Italy for your wedding!
“I also want to tell the story of your big day with timeless elegance. The photos should not only look great tomorrow but also fifty years from now.”
My Work Ethic And Approach
I love working with, talking to, and getting to know my clients very well. I like to communicate through video chat, discuss ideas, and make decisions together. Working together results in a perfect wedding photography experience.
Ultimately, on the day of your wedding, you want a photographer you know and trust, not just a random person with a camera.
Imagine, you select an Italian wedding photographer because you love their stunning images. However, you don’t talk to them before the wedding, then on the day, you discover that your personalities clash…
Communication is the key to success, just as much as exceptional is in the details. These are two essential ingredients in my recipe for a picture-perfect Italian wedding.

What Will You Photograph?
I like to cover full events from start to finish, and my focus is on quality rather than quantity. Wouldn’t you rather have a sensible amount of quality photos rather than thousands of mediocre ones?
Professional Wedding Photography That Tells A Story
You deserve an Italy destination wedding photographer who can capture the story of your wedding day from start to finish.
I cover the locations, the details, the preparations, the ceremony, the reception, dancing and party and everything else in between. Including your portraits, family photos, and, of course, lots of spontaneous moments and emotions. Ideally, each and every image should stand on its own as a work of art.
Extensive Local Knowledge: Top Italian Wedding Photographer
Italian destination weddings are an excellent choice for couples who want to have quality time with friends and family in a relaxing and romantic setting. Many years of weddings give me a deep understanding of the territories in Italy and their wedding venues.
There are limitless destinations to choose from, like Rome, Florence, Venice, Tuscany, Capri, and Lake Como. Each territory is exclusive in their ways, and I can help you find the best location for your desired look and style of wedding photos.
I am a person who loves to travel, and here are some of my favorite locations to photograph weddings:
- Tuscany Wedding: World famous for its food and wine, fantastic scenery, art, architecture, culture, and more.
- Venice Wedding: A one of a kind experience. A city on the water, with history and romance all around you.
- Florence Wedding: The renaissance city. Small but packed with art and culture as well as the beautiful local lifestyle.
- Amalfi Coast Wedding: This famous stretch of coastline attracts people from all over, they are drawn to the glamour and exciting lifestyle. Small towns remain real-life gems for travellers to visit.
More Than Just a Wedding Photographer in Italy: Your Partner in Creating a Seamless Wedding
Over the years, I have built an extensive network of leading wedding professionals in Italy. In working with the best service providers and putting together a dream team, the results will be outstanding.
Here are just a few ways that I can help you have a stress-free wedding day and help you with the planning process.
- Wedding Planning: The planner and photographer are the most important decisions that you make for your wedding day. If they work together, then it is even more likely your special day will come together seamlessly. Naturally, when I am working with my event planner wife, collaboration is seamless.
- Pre-Wedding Photography: I provide you with a complete story to share with your friends and family. My pre-wedding photography service helps you tell your love story in Italy.
- Hair & Makeup: Making you feel glamorous is the role of the makeup artist or hairstylist. I can recommend to you, excellent stylists.
- Italy Elopement Photography: Thinking of eloping? Want to avoid the stress and over the top expenses of a large wedding so you can spend a little more on yourselves? Then you need an exclusive Italian elopement.
- Italy Wedding Venues: Italy has word-class locations for your special day. I can help you narrow down venue choices based on your needs and wedding style!
- Video: If videography is important to you, then I work with the best in Italy. We work together, not against each other.
- Wedding Albums: I offer photo books or wedding albums. I prefer the flat lay style of a fine art book with the images printed directly onto the paper. The books are bound by hand, and you can personalize the cover.

We Are Not Comfortable Having Our Photos Taken!
Many clients say they are not comfortable being in front of the camera, scratch that… almost all clients say the same thing… “We are not good at having our photos taken!” Consequently, they prefer to not be the center of attention, especially on their wedding day. This is an entirely understandable feeling. You are not used to having your photo taken, so it feels awkward to you.
You don’t need to worry about this because I am an expert at making you relax and feel at ease. Before your wedding, we discuss and make decisions together that will help you have an even better celebration and help me get better photos for you. While we are doing this, we are getting to know each other, and so on the day, you will have a photographer you know and not be photographed by a stranger with a camera.
Personal Attention And Service
I have worked with hundreds of brides and grooms throughout the years, and each wedding day is unique. From start to finish, I will work with you to understand your ideas and needs, so every portrait will be a work of art that will live on for years to come.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Jules, who expertly captured all the magical moments of our wedding events in the breathtaking backdrop of Siena, Italy. From start to finish, our experience with Jules was nothing short of exceptional.
The quality of the photographs taken by Jules is simply astounding. Every image he captured was amazing, portraying the emotion, romance, and elegance of our special day. The composition, lighting, and attention to detail in each photo were exquisite.
Moreover, Jules displayed exceptional customer service throughout our entire journey. He was attentive, approachable, and went above and beyond to ensure our needs and desires were met. He listened to our preferences and vision, seamlessly integrating them into his photography style.
One of Jules’s outstanding attributes is his ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. His direction and encouragement made the photo sessions enjoyable, allowing us to be ourselves and resulting in candid and authentic shots.
Given Jules has done 100s of weddings at top locations in italy, he has incredible knowledge of the property and its surroundings. His familiarity with the venue and the stunning landscapes of Siena and its countryside ensured that we obtained the best possible shots. The way he framed the photos with the picturesque Italian scenery truly encapsulated the essence of Italy, enhancing the beauty and elegance of our wedding.
We highly recommend Jules for anyone seeking a wedding photographer who excels in quality, customer service, and making couples feel comfortable during their special day. Our experience with Jules was nothing short of remarkable, and we will forever be grateful for the memories he captured so beautifully.

We’d like to start off with thanking Jules again for the experience and beautiful photos we get to appreciate every day.
The actual elopement shoot experience was unexpectedly as equally cherished as the photos we have. I had expressed to Jules beforehand how uncomfortable and awkward I had felt with the idea of doing a shoot in a dress especially in the outdoors, in public and honestly it was daunting me. However, Jules was so amazing at making us both feel really comfortable, focus on each other and just take in the moment and enjoy the whole process.
On a practical note, Jules was consistently communicative, alert, and punctual throughout the entire process. He would often check in with us and offered a range of planning resources and ideas. His eye for detail is astounding, he was an absolute joy to work with. On the day, he effortlessly navigated us through different locations and areas and knew when to blend into the background and when to assert himself to get the best pictures. We cannot express how beautiful the photos came out, it was exactly what we had imagined and wanted and we are so grateful that Jules was able to execute that.
If you value memories and timeless beautiful photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further.
Plus, he offers something that not all photographers can – true flexibility. Our wedding was postponed due to COVID and Jules did not miss a beat, even thoughtfully sending us emails assuring us the shoot would continue despite the unfortunate delay!
We will treasure these photos and memories forever.

Finding Jules might have been best thing that ever happened to us. My fiancé and I wanted to get married in Italy, and we decided to go for it about 8 days in advance.
We found Jules website and were blown away by the quality of his photographs, and we instantly knew he was who we wanted to work with to capture all the special moments on our wedding day. Jules and I emailed back and forth a few times, and he was always quick to respond, and was helpful and honest about everything I needed to know when planning a wedding in a place I had never been to before.
He understood that I was putting a lot of faith in him to guide me through the planning process, and he took that responsibility seriously. I liked him right away because I could feel how important it was to him, that we have the best day of our lives. He really wanted that for us. Jules has amazing contacts all over Italy, so after a few days of getting the basics in place, he brought in Simona (from Happy Brides) to help plan the rest of the details, and together we formed a wedding team that truly changed our lives.
All the way through the planning process I felt cared for and important. This was not just another wedding in a busy schedule for him, but it was an opportunity to help us live out our dream.
I am not someone who loves posing for pictures, and I am not overly comfortable being photographed but Jules made it a really fun experience for me. He was funny, and relaxed, and in control of the situation but always in a way that made me smile and feel like I was able to enjoy the attention. I felt like a celebrity for the day.
I can only speak for myself as the groom, but Jules took the part of the day I was least looking forward to, and made it a fun and memorable experience that I now cherish.
Earlier this week we got out pictures back, and once again we were blown away! After the wedding ceremony we were in a race against time to get as many good shots in good locations as we could before the sun went down. It was so much fun running around and getting in place, and having a special moment just in time to turn and run around somewhere else to do it again.
Again, Jules with his incredible eye for lighting was in control and put us in beautiful spots, and in our pictures I/we are laughing in half of them because it was so comfortable and so much fun. Almost every night this week wife and I have spent hours looking through all of Jules’s work, and the more I look at them, the more I appreciate him.
He is a special photographer, in a special country, and he captured our love and our day with such an amazing eye, I can’t thank him enough. We enjoyed this experience enough where we are already planning on going back to Italy in a few months and plan to call Jules just to hang out socially! We signed up for a wedding photographer and accidentally made a friend.
I recommend him with 100% of me and wish my experience on everyone who reads this.
Thank you for everything Jules! Without you, none of this could have happened. See you again soon my friend!

After we had decided to get married in Venice we became aware of Jules through his phenomenal website and were immediately impressed by the quality his photos and the incomparable style in which he took them. After seeing his pictures, the portfolios of other Italian photographers just faded in comparison.
Of course, we wondered if our photos could come close to this beauty. And what can we say, our hopes have been exceeded a lot! We think the photos that Jules created can hardly be surpassed in terms of beauty, warmth, atmosphere, the way he manages to use the sunlight etc. We are not used to being photographed, but Jules really managed to make us feel very comfortable and relaxed all the time which we think you can clearly see in the pictures!
We are so lucky to have selected him, because he really let the memories of our most beautiful day become alive again when we received the pictures after only 2 weeks! (We’ve heard from other couples who had to wait months until they got their pictures from their photographer…)
In addition, he has not only proven himself to be a highly skilled photographer but also an incredibly warm-hearted and helpful person and supporter in the planning of our wedding when we faced some sudden and unexpected problems. His tips and commitment have really saved us the one time or another! At this point also special thanks to his wife, who has also contributed to the success of our wedding and as we found out later is a wedding planner herself, which was certainly of great benefit, too.

Jules is an incredible photographer. I’m normally not photogenic and he made me look incredible in my wedding photos. He made it so I enjoyed the wedding photo experience.
My wife was so stressed with the photos for the wedding and he immediately calmed my wife down throughout the process. Jules innate ability to capture the elements and surroundings of our wedding venue was truly spectacular. Jules also was a pivotal part of our wedding as he kept guests organized and to the original schedule of the wedding.
Jules was also great in communication leading up to the event as he was accessible all the time. Another incredible thing about Jules was his ability to send us the digital photos only two weeks after the wedding while most of his competitors take six months.
His photos are so amazing we literally watch them on our television every weekend and we feel like we are back at our wedding venue.

My wife and I were privileged enough to book Jules as our wedding photographer. Planning a wedding can be daunting escpecially when you initially start the process, however these concerns were alleviated after contacting Jules.
His communication is prompt, professional, and he does his best to go above and beyond. We were very grateful for his offer to help find us a wedding coordinator, and get in touch with a makeup artist for our wedding both of whom we contracted with. Throughout the time leading to the wedding Jules kept in contact and was reachable regardless of his hectic schedule.
The photography process on the day of the wedding was very smooth as well. Jules showed up to the venue early, was very professional and attained AMAZING shots that we were hoping he would be able to achieve.
Having been to our wedding location before for previous weddings, Jules knew the different areas to go and various poses for impeccable photos.
As someone who is not a professional model having someone take photos of me was odd at first, however Jules made us feel at ease throughout the process through his casual but firm demeanor and by providing exact direction.
After the wedding, Jules provided the photos to us within weeks, and had our wedding album designed shortly after. I would caution anyone who hires Jules not to skip on the photo album, it is a very elegant piece that you would be hard pressed to have duplicated elsewhere.
He also provided us with links to download high quality images of the photos he took for us to store electronically. I create a google drive to store them in the cloud as well as a hard backup on a flash drive.
We used some of these downloaded images to have printed on aluminum for our home. I would not hesitate to recommend Jules to anyone getting married.
The product he produces is well worth the money spent a thousand times over and is something my wife and I will treasure for the rest of our lives.
