Lauren Young
Romantic Film Wedding Photography Across Italy
Editorial Film Wedding Photography in Italy
For couples who want their Italian wedding to feel like a memory from another era.
There is something about film photography that digital can never quite recreate.
The softness of the light. The imperfect little moments. The grain, the colour, the feeling that you are looking back at a memory rather than just a photograph.
Lauren Young creates timeless wedding imagery using both editorial photography and genuine analogue film photography, capturing your wedding in Italy with an artistic, romantic, and deeply human approach.
For couples who dream of images that feel like they belong in the pages of an old European magazine, Lauren brings a calm eye, thoughtful storytelling, and a love for the beautifully unscripted moments.

The FitThe Magic of Real Film Photography
In a world where thousands of digital photos can be taken in a single day, film invites us to slow down.
Every frame matters.
Shot using vintage analogue cameras, film photography requires patience, artistry, and an understanding of natural light. Each roll is carefully developed, revealing colours, textures, and tones that have made film a favourite amongst luxury editorial photographers.
The result is a gallery that feels nostalgic, cinematic, and completely unique to you.
There is no filter that can truly replicate it.
