It all started a few years ago.

We were a duo shooting weddings in a town lost the italian countryside.
We started shooting our friends’ weddings. There were no wedding planners, no fancy stylings, amazing villas or styled shootings with models. They were just real and authentic unions of people in love, and yes, let’s be honest, sometimes there were plastic glasses and no flowers.


Then, it slowly evolved. We started receiving requests from friends of friends, but also from people who didn’t personally know us but that simply noticed our photos online.


In a couple of years, we went from shooting 4 weddings per year to almost 20, and then 30. We moved our studio to Milan, other members joined, and we started traveling all over Italy and not only, experiencing many different weddings, with particular rituals and traditions.


After a moment of reflection, we realized that we would have not been able to maintain that rhythm and quality together with many other activities that we were carrying out and we decided to change our approach.


Studio Magenta is a studio that cares about the quality of the service, and we have therefore focused on a more contained offer, more in line with our lives and philosophy.


Our experience is solid, and we accept a few weddings a year to maintain the highest quality as possible, since we personally edit & curate every single shooting.


We are now a group of 4 photographers and 1 videographer.
We constantly learn from each other and love mixing our photography techniques.
