Annie & Raplh

There's a place on Lake Como where time seems to stand still: Villa del Balbianello.

Cypress trees reflecting on the water, stone staircases leading down to the lake, and that golden light only sunset can give.

This is where Annie and Ralph chose to live out their love escape. Arriving by boat, with the lake calm and quiet around them, they crossed the water until reaching the villa, leaving the rush of the world behind for a moment that belonged only to the two of them.

As the sun began to set behind the mountains, painting the sky in shades of pink and orange, the two lovers strolled through the gardens of Villa del Balbianello, carefree and in love, with the lake as the only witness. Glances, laughter, an embrace at sunset, simple moments that, in a place like this, become pure magic.

A true love escape, far from everything, where Lake Como became the perfect backdrop for one of the most beautiful stories I've ever told through my camera.
