Assunta Simone Studio

I’ve never been interested in photographing perfect weddings.
I’m interested in photographing people.
Their character.
Their relationships.
The gestures that make them unmistakably themselves.
That’s the quiet beauty of a micro wedding: with fewer distractions, people become the story.
The value of a photograph isn’t in what it shows. It’s in what it preserves.
Years from now, you won’t remember every detail of your wedding day. You’ll remember the way your father looked at you while adjusting your tie, the embrace that said everything without words, and the quiet confidence before walking down the aisle.
Because long after the flowers have faded and the music has stopped, it’s the people—and who they were—that remain.

For some, it’s just a welcome aperitivo. For their guests, it’s the first taste of Puglia, the first shared sunset, and the beginning of a wedding experience they’ll never forget.

One month ago, we captured these moments. Tomorrow, the wait is finally over. ✨

Tomorrow, these two beautiful souls will say “I do” surrounded by the people who love them most.

What a privilege to witness and document a love story like theirs. ❤️

While their guests enjoyed the moments leading up to the ceremony, Mike and Francesca slipped away for a private first look.

Just the two of them, a few quiet minutes, and all the emotions of the day before saying “I do.” ✨

Hien & Travis 🤍

They flew all the way from USA and Vietnam to celebrate their wedding in Puglia with just 13 guests.

A day filled with meaningful moments, incredible food, lots of laughter, and the kind of atmosphere you can only create when you’re surrounded by the people you love most.

From the historic corners of Masseria Spina to dinner under the lights, every part of the day felt relaxed, genuine, and completely them.

Small guest list. Big memories.

Just a little glimpse of a beautiful day spent together before the big one. 🤍 A chance to get comfortable in front of my camera, share some laughs, make a few memories, and start telling their story. And this is only the first chapter—there’s still so much more to share before June 17. ✨ In just a few days, these two wonderful souls will say “I do,” and I can’t wait to document every moment of it. 💫

Some weddings feel loud.
Others feel like a film you don’t want to end — soft light, long shadows, beautiful pauses, and people loving each other in the most human way possible.

Thanks to for the amazing work and for making everything feel so beautiful and effortless.

Alcuni matrimoni sembrano rumorosi.
Altri sembrano un film che non vorresti finisse mai — luce morbida, ombre lunghe, pause bellissime e persone che si amano nel modo più umano possibile.

Somewhere between us and everything else.

Salt on skin, wind in between words.
Nothing to fix, nothing to prove.
