Matteo Innocenti

There’s an undeniable sense of warmth, elegance and simplicity in Matteo Innocenti’s wedding photography. “At least that’s what I look for in my pictures,” he says. “I always look for some Caravaggio-style natural light” and dramatic shadows, so you can mostly find him looking for peculiar light for his portraits, even in unconventional places. More than his style, though, Innocenti suspects he gets hired for his laid-back approach and relaxed attitude. “I am not a superstar,” he says, “I do not push people to play a role on their wedding day.”
