PiccolinoWeddings Full Description
I would describe my style as reportage, so I'm basically recording your day as it is in the most creative way with without interrupting the flow of the events. However, I do pay attention to the group shots and the portrait session of the couple where I give some direction. From start to finish, I work really hard to provide my clients with maximum quality and produce unique images that you will treasure forever.

we have been able to relive our amazing day
Initially, we did not think we wanted a professional photographer, we have friends who are great photographers & we thought we could involve them in our special day.. until we saw Francesca's photos at a wedding fair. We loved the candid yet very intimate photographs displayed ...exactly what we would want. Francesca also reminded us the 'special moments' we would want our friends to witness may be missed if our friends did the photography and her 'prep work' prompted us to consider things we had not thought of. It became obvious very quickly we wanted Francesca as part of our special day, to capture key moments but those moments that could very easily be missed.. From the first click of her camera, Francesca captured our whole day! Her trained eye knew exactly what to pick up: a few family and group photos, then Francesca blended in with the crowd and we really forgot she was there until she came to say goodbye.. We received the photos in a prompt timeframe and could not wait to open the digital file....words cannot describe the photos...we have been able to relive our amazing day, even the parts that were invisible to us. What has been mind-blowing is how obvious the emotion of the day has been captured in these snaps... We are so delighted that we chose to have Francesca involved and had no hesitation in trusting her with our day... Definitely one of the best choices. We want to say a huge THANK YOU to an amazing person who was able to capture memories of our day...forever. Lots of gratitude Orla & Leana (Lala)

We loved them!!!
We would definitely recommend Francesca! She was the photographer on our wedding day, leading up to the day she had good communication with us and went with us to visit the church and venue to make sure she is familiar with the places. She did a great job on the day, on time, took a lot of shots and gave us the photos back very efficiently! We loved them!!!

Being photographed by Francesca during our wedding was really easy and fun. She was able to capture many great moments, many of which were such a surprise and delight at the same time to view when the photo gallery was ready! We are thrilled to find Francesca and will certainly want to be photographed by her again for any special events.

She has an incredible eye for the right shot.
Francesca was absolutely incredible to work with on our special day. She has an incredible eye for the right shot. You should just go for her! You will NOT be disappointed in her work, I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. She made sure to get every shot, and something unique. Francesca punctual, friendly, understanding the pressures of the day and captured everything we wanted and recorded our day exactly as it was!

Absolutely fantastic photographer and photos!
Francesca was our photographer for our wedding on 2nd September and we absolutely loved working with her. Before the wedding, we really felt that she took the time to get to know us, and what we liked and wanted, as well as sharing her own ideas, and she made the whole experience feel very personal. Nothing was too much trouble, and she came to meet and speak to us a couple of times before the big day as well as separately making arrangements to visit our venue which was really reassuring. On the day, she was perfect. Every bit of the day was covered, but she was completely unobtrusive - looking back on our photos, there are plenty where I didn’t even realise she was there, and yet she captured the moments beautifully! She was really friendly and great with our guests when arranging the few posed group photos that we’d suggested. A few weeks later, and we’ve now had our photos and are struggling to select only a few for an album. They’re all really good! Lots of very natural laughs, hugs, tears and no awkward posing. Since sharing with our guests, we’ve had lots of compliments on our good choice of photographer. We really couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

What is your most memorable wedding?

John and Veronica. It was my third wedding and I was so nervous. I really wanted to do a great job. I have connected perfectly with the couple and the guest and I captured the emotions of the day which was my goal. Capture the real day. People laughing, crying, cuddling, dancing...and I have managed to do it. They were pleased and so was I.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

After I received your query, I answer all your questions confirming my packages. I then propose to meet up or set up a telephone call to understand your requirements and introduce ourselves as I'm gonna be with you all day (on you wedding day!!!) So it's important that we meet and most of all you trust me as your photographer. If you are happy, then I'll send you the contract with the T&C and the invoice for the deposit to secure your date (typically £200). The balance is due a week before your wedding. 3 to 4 weeks after the wedding the images will be presented to you in a private gallery that you could share with family and friends. The pictures can be downloaded and will be ready to be printed. Also you will receive a slideshow video with the best moments

Describe how you got into photography.

I have first started as a Street Photographer, which can turn everyday moments into pieces of art. After becoming a mum, I've decided to turn a passion into a business. I initially tested different styles to understand what I liked and what I was good at. I realised that what I really enjoyed was the documentary photography, the non staged moment, catching people expressions, looking for that soul in their eyes. I like photographing real moments and emotions that are so familiar and represent the essence of a person, a couple or a group.
