#anniversarygoals? Look No Further.

I have new hopes for my future anniversaries and it's right here in front of you. Thanks to Sophie Epton and these two adorable lovebirds, I'll be spending my week (and many weeks after) imagining myself in this beautiful landscape. Lake Como may be for lovers but it's also for amazing anniversary shoots - get your week started oh so well with our Vault right here!

From Sophie Epton Photography... Shooting Madison and Eli in Lake Como was the true Italian dream. This sweet couple (originally from Nashville, TN) were living in Belfast and wanted to escape the cold, gray weather to commemorate a year of marriage... And what better way to celebrate than to fly down to beautiful Lake Como, Italy! The lake and surrounding towns are one of the most stunning destinations we've ever traveled to and photographed, and provided such a serene backdrop for the entire anniversary shoot. We spent a sunny afternoon walking all over the historical town of Varenna and exploring both the botanical gardens with turquoise water and ancient sculptures, as well as the quaint city center covered in splashes of soft sherbet hues. Madison chose both a bright mustard yellow and poppy red dress to wear that blew perfectly with the breeze and really accentuated the colorful landscape. As the sun started to set behind the Italian Alps, we took a boat out on the lake and ventured out to the historical Villa Balbianello, which was such a great way to cap off the entire day. They say "Lake Como is for Lovers," and this anniversary shoot was not only beyond magical, but a fabulous way to celebrate commitment and love all over again.
