When Junebug member and photographer Dan Sauer approached Junebug wanting to collaborate on a styled shoot in the heart of Tuscany, we were over the moon. After putting together mood boards for an engagement session, wedding, elopement, and editorial shoot, we let the wedding vendors take over, and magic was created. This is what Dan had to say about the day:
“When we embarked on this project, our primary objective was to meticulously showcase the craftsmanship of the Italian territory in a vintage and “Dolce Vita” atmosphere through careful planning and attention to detail, aiming to create a genuinely high-value experience for all vendors involved.”
With countless talented vendors coming together, it’s no wonder this Villa Lena wedding inspiration shoot has us craving a trip to Italy. So make yourself an Aperol spritz and get to scrolling because you’re not going to want to miss this styled shoot that proves that Italy really is the Bel Paese
