Anniversary on the Amalfi Coast

0






























This spring we traveled to the breathtaking Amalfi Coast for the Moda e Arte Workshop in Ravello, Italy. After the workshop we spent a couple of days taking in the beauty and history that the coast offers before returning home. Serendipitously, Andy and Adam were also on the Amalfi Coast celebrating their first anniversary together and prior Andy had arranged to surprise her husband Adam with a photo session in beautiful Positano. The idyllic coast couldn't have provided us with a better backdrop to capture the milestone and journey for these two lovebirds...

Thank you so much Grey Likes Weddings for sharing this session on their blog, you can see it all here!

'We had such a wonderful time that we couldn't bear to go back to our regular lives,
and so we decided we just wouldn't... and then the greatness began.'

Looking back at 4 years since we celebrated in the mountains together. So lucky to have such an incredible partner in this adventure we call life...

A journey through the Amalfi Coast

Italy holds so many treasures and among them I think the Amalfi Coast is one of the finest. Around each corner is something to be discovered... wandering the narrow paths of Positano, exploring the vast views of Villa Cimbrone and awakening to the smell of the lemon trees that seem to simply be everywhere. The pastel colored coast of the Amalfi is breathtaking and I can't wait to return as there is so much more to explore...

Come join us; this October we will be back in the beautiful village of Ravello for the next Moda e Arte Workshop; you can learn more about this Italian adventure here.

'The cure for anything is salt water- tears, sweat or the sea.'

One of my favorite quotes that rings even more true in the summer months. Salt water and summer simply go together... See more of Lisa and Adrian's destination engagement session here.

We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an
urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are
homesick most for the places we have never known.
-unknown

It's been a beautiful summer of travel and spending a few moments between in my home state of Nevada. The landscapes are something to inspire... As we travel back across the country it will surely remain in my dreams. Very grateful for so many things this week...

Perched atop the waters of Itay's Amalfi Coast, the historic Villa Cimbrone has breathtaking views from it's Terraza Dell'Infinito or Terrace of Infinity and enchanting ancient gardens that beg for wandering. The Terrace of Infinity is a natural balcony set on the cliffs of Amalfi coast and adorned with eighteenth century marble busts. This incredible and historic setting was the perfect backdrop for our editorial shoot at this Fall's Moda e Arte Workshop in Ravello, Italy hosted at Hotel Caruso with the talented Sandra Aberg, Joy Proctor, Pearl & Godiva and Wedding Sparrow. Joy Proctor designed the Roman Romance shoot and you can read about her vision on Style Me Pretty where the shoot is featured today (see it here!). Samuelle Couture contributed the exquisite flowing gown that perfectly matched the Italian landscape and MG Image filmed the entire workshop to perfection in this film. Such a warm thank you to all of the talented contributors who brought this vision to life...
