Dreamlike Engagement Session in Portofino’s Iconic Beauty


A romantic pre-wedding photoshoot in one of Italy’s most exclusive seaside destinations

A couple shares a romantic moment by the harbor in Portofino, Italy with colorful buildings and boats in background.

Portofino is the embodiment of Italian elegance, and for L&G, it marked the start of their forever.


This enchanting seaside village in Liguria provided the perfect backdrop for their engagement session—an intimate journey through one of Italy’s most iconic destinations. With its charming harbor, vibrant facades, and the world-famous Piazzetta, where exclusive boutiques line the waterfront cafés, Portofino captures everything that makes Italy so timelessly alluring.


These American sweethearts crossed the ocean for a romantic getaway, and their engagement session was nothing short of magical. It began in Santa Margherita Ligure, a picturesque coastal town just moments from Portofino, where the lush seaside gardens offered a serene setting for their first portraits. As the day unfolded, we wandered through Portofino’s cobbled streets, capturing moments between the Piazzetta and the breathtaking terrace of Castello Brown, which overlooks the bay in all its splendor.


Now, the countdown to their wedding has officially begun. But let’s be honest—every day in Italy feels like a celebration of love. If you’re dreaming of capturing your romance in an exquisite setting, an engagement session in Portofino is the ultimate experience.
