YOUR WORDS

“We were introduced to Luigi by our wedding planner, we were planning a wedding from the United States. We wanted a photographer to capture not only our special moments, but moments of everyone who joined us for our wedding!! We were blessed to have been able to be married at Il Borgia castle and so incredibly thankful we were able to work with Luigi and Andrea!! They were so patient, sweet and professional. While planning from so far away I had so many questions, requests and wanted to make sure all details were taken care, and Luigi made sure to make me feel confident that all was taken care of!
On the day of our wedding it was as if a longtime friend was there taking all of our photos! Luigi was so easy to work with and was able to capture some amazing photos from our fairytale!!! I would highly recommend working with Luigi for anyone who is wanting absolutely gorgeous photos!!
When we return to visit Italy we will be contacting Luigi for another photo session!!!”

“My husband and I eloped for our wedding in Rome earlier this year. Luigi took our photographs from dawn until dusk, he captured the day with amazing pictures of our ceremony and afterwards taking in all the beautiful sites in Rome. His friendliness and professionalism made the afternoon with him very special. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the day with him. Everyone we show our photos to are blown away and we love looking at them at every opportunity.”

“J: Luigi was absolutely amazing from the very first contact through to receiving our stunning wedding photos! He is so talented and made our special day so memorable. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone. He is professional yet puts you at ease with his humor and expertise. He’s the best!”

“Working with Luigi was the best decision we could make for our wedding photos!!

I received recommendation from his friend to contact him and just after few minutes of chat I was sure he was the right one!! We met him in person just the day of our wedding but he understood everything we needed (sometimes even without words) and was able to perfectly show it on the pictures!

He is a great person and great photographer and I cannot imagine better pictures from our wedding day than those captured by him!!”

“My husband and I the most amazing experience working with Luigi on our wedding photos! He has fantastic ideas and I had no idea what I wanted, so his vision was essential.

Not only are his photos gorgeous, but his professionalism did not diminish his warmth and the level of comfort that it brings. I cannot wait to see the rest of our pictures!!”

“What about Luigi … he is not a simple photographer, he is a true all-round artist who captures the deepest emotions of the most beautiful day of your life with his art. He is a serious professional, meticulous, creative and endowed with a profound humanity. It does not do a “classic” photographer service, but with mastery it tells your story, highlighting the emotions and narrating all the most significant details. Nothing is left to chance in his stories, I can assure you. Every significant detail will be there and it will be enriched by that halo of poetry that only those who really know how to make photography and those who are endowed with deep sensitivity can grasp.”

“He is an artist before ….. a great photographer after … he transmits His Passion … he finds the light in the most incredible angles to highlight the image … his best virtue is that he is very charming … humble … and elegant …! …. the set of his shots represent the life you want to have or imagine … Thank you for your true Heart … in a few hours you have represented our dreams with images that will accompany in our lives … dreams that are transformed into reality…”

“I have just finished to see the preview of the photos of my wedding and I decided to write the review immediately … not to lose this wonderful trail of emotion that is accompanying me! I strongly wanted Luigi for my day, because I had the good fortune to attend his work and see the results “on Serena and Laura” (my friends Serena and Laura) and I fell in love with it. And now more than ever I can say that I did well, indeed very well. Scrolling through the photos I was excited, moved, surprised, amused … and I can not help but say thank you, for stopping the moments of that day in such a careful and passionate way, because those moments, told so well, will always accompany us . What a show!”

“Well, if I told you that Luigi is an exceptional photographer, I would not do him justice. Not at all. Luigi is THE Photographer. I say this sincerely. Since the very first moment we met, I realized that no one else would ever be enough and that we would not have had a simple photo shoot with him, but a story, or rather a fairytale. On the wedding day, as soon as he got home, he became one of the family, he made everyone feel at ease, and above all he knew how to seize special moments. And I don’t mean only pictures. It would be reductive. I mean feelings, emotions. The ones that give you goosebumps. I would like to say something especially to the brides: on that day you will be nervous, someone more, someone or less, but it’s like this for all of us. I assure you that having a friendly and familiar face, which makes you more comfortable, lets you being more relaxed and, above all, beautiful. Believe me, he portrayed my husband and I in the most spontaneous ways and the outcome was amazing. And I tell you that, after several days, looking back to the pictures Luigi has been able to capture, still moves us so much. So if you want your emotions, your thoughts, your feelings always alive, you can do nothing but relying on him. For that day, trust me, look for someone who is able to tell, not only your marriage, but your own story, yourselves, your love and your emotions. With Luigi, you will soon find treasures in your hands, and no predictable photos. You will get beautiful images, full of poetry and wonderful memories. I really, strongly, recommend him to you. We love you Luì!”

We love you Luì!”

“Being a photographer is a serious matter. Even more when you are called to capture a page of history like a marriage. So many emotions, all different, many colors and a lot of tension. When we saw the photos of Luigi, however, everything was rekindled and we lived again on June 16, 2018. Luigi seems almost to be merged with the environment, so as to be able to steal glances and smiles that otherwise we would never have been able to remember. From a technical point of view his preparation is undoubted and unexceptionable as well as his skill. But what leaves you breathless is how it manages to reach the main objective: telling a story (which is our story), making it as simple and genuine as it is in reality. Relying on him was the best thing we could do, because, in his case, our special day made him eternal. An infinite thank you from the depths of the heart …”

“We had so keenly anticipated our two photo shoots in Rome: one in the early morning and the other one during the sunset. Everything went just perfectly! Luigi is an amazing person and a great professional. We felt absolutely comfortable and laughed a lot together. Thank you, Luigi, for this unforgettable Day in Rome!”

“Besides significant and serious professionals, Luigi and Andrea are two sensitive men who love their work and happy to immortalize the joy of the people. Their work has been exceptional, photographing the most intense moments of our wedding service, without having felt the need to suggest anything or make any request. When you meet people who know how to do their job, the words aren’t necessary; there are the photos that speak for Luigi. He is intent, serious, creative but, above all, devoured by the passion for the photography. In every shoot, we breathe this love which arises from every photo taken the day of our wedding. To do this job isn’t enough to be good, but we have to love everything that we do. This is the secret of great snaps. With Andrea, they form an insuperable pair that even more make valuable an already good work. We recommend to everyone the professionalism, cleverness, and competence of these photography masters. Their photos are astonished and impress, because they touch you and make relive the emotion of that moment, besides one of friends and relatives. What to say: thanks.”

“Luigi creates masterpieces with his lens. He knows how to manipulate light to get the shot he wants. Pure magic! So easy to work with, and such a kind soul. We knew from his portfolio we were getting an amazing photographer, but once we got our pictures we were just blown away. He is one of the great Italian artists right up there with Leonardo, Raphael, and Michelangelo in our book.
If you do not choose him for your wedding or photoshoot you will regret it.
Luigi was introduced to us by our Wedding Planner. We got married at Borgia Castle in Umbria, and he travelled out from Rome. He speaks English very well. We gave us all of our pictures on a USB drive. It came in a beautiful surprise package.

We look forward to meeting up with him next time we are back in Italy for dinner.”

“During our wedding, celebrated in the summer of 2016, we met Luigi. Immediately the feeling sprints, he is able to understand the needs and the fears that a future married couple can have in those moments. He reassures you, tells you, tolerates you, supports you. His photos speak for themselves and that already brightens your mood. He’s a professional, it will be fine. Indeed, it will be the best. While we were on honeymoon, on Facebook, in exclusive and premiere, appeared already the first shots for us and for our friends who were eager as we are. Exciting is an understatement. Catching the right moments is not for everyone. If you don’t know yourself, if you don’t create a photographer/spouse relationship you can’t understand, you can’t shoot, then let it be. He’s in that way. Not the usual photos of the reception desk, no. Those can let you all shoot from your uncle. The groom’s eyes to the witnesses in search of support before the fateful yes. The father who leaves his daughter in the hands of the young man at the beginning of the celebration. The joy of the friends at the reception. The eyes of the relatives at the exit from the church. That’s Luigi Orrù.”

“The emotion has no voice! And who has ever had the fortune to experience an emotion truly knows how much truth there is in this sentence. Because the emotion has the power to take your breath away, you want to describe it but you failed, and every word used seems to downplay your feelings! But luckily, it happens to meet a person, a photographer, on a late afternoon in early September, maybe for passion, for bravery or for his unlimited professionalism, who has the power to transform those emotions into pictures! We have tested it and were so many in that fantastic October 17, and he put us all the magic of his shots, in order to not make us forget about it ever again. It is a photographer, a champion. An attentive and discreet presence which can not escape any important moment and he knows how to capture it with wisdom and but without ever appearing intrusive. Luigi has told thus, image after image, the story of our wedding day. The result is really nice: real photographs of moments lived, never casts, which have the power to arouse the emotions even months apart. Thank you, master Orrù!”

“We met Louis during our search for a photographer for our marriage. He ‘was the first one we met … and also the last! His shots and his passion conquered our trust. When we saw his products we felt catapulted into the history of those unknown because in those photos there was all … and we immediately understood that we also wanted us a thing like that .. forever alive, every time we look it. And now we also have our album, with photos that I am proud to show and to browse because they tell all about us. Thanks, Luigi !!”

“Thank you for being a part of our special day, which will remain in our memories beautiful, as it was, thanks to your wonderful pictures. Your positive energy, professionalism and great communication made us feel like a couple from covers of magazine”

“It is extremely difficult to find a wedding photographer in Rome who understands what his client really wants. We have been very lucky to have met Luigi Orru!”

“I think that Luigi is a…”Poet of the Photography”…his photos aren’t just amazing…they are much more… they conceal and reveal his soul … capable of capturing “the essence” of a moment and “impress it” in the picture!!! …but not only…I had the pleasure to know Luigi during the wedding of my daughter, Chiara, with Saverio…and he touched me for his simplicity, humility, sensibility, helpfulness, and cordiality…quality not always predictable in a good professional…his “being” leads his “doing”…and looking his photos I understand it!! ‘The beauty is in the eyes of people who observe.’”

“Luigi was a discovery for me. A pleasant discovery! Introduced by the woman who became my wife later, I trusted thanks to the positive opinions that have been reported to me, starting from my sister-in-law who married two years before me and who had the pleasure to have him as a photographer too. When I met him, the first impact was much positive. Coffee, chat, a smile, …. it seemed as if I knew each other for years, but it was the first time I met him. He showed us his work, some photos of other weddings. He did everything with naturalness and simplicity. He could boast about his job, no doubt he’s a good professional (I say one of the best in the field!), but he never boasted, I never heard him say “I am, I do it, because I, …”. And even when we signed the contract (because he’s a person who does things by the rules… including the bill! A rarity of these times, but for someone like me who is exhausted by the state taxes is a very beautiful thing undoubtedly), we spent a pleasant time between the study and bars in places of downtown. And then … arrive the wedding. A helpful and polite person, never intrusive. I have never seen a photographer so respectful of the working environment, starting with the church and the respect for the ceremony that was taking place. He followed us, just as we wanted, he was able to understand us, he was able to capture our best moments and create natural, spontaneous photos. He has been present, with his strong support (Andrea), from the morning until the end of the lunch. 2-3 days later we already had the first selection of photos to share with our friends and family. An excellent photographer!”

“I’m a destination wedding planner. The first time I saw Luigi’s photo was in a magazine of marriage, but I didn’t remember his name. I met him personally during a training course. I was fascinated by his style, how he can capture the emotions … Luigi isn’t for everyone! But it’s exactly what I was looking for. I didn’t waste time, I contacted him and exposed my plan. He received enthusiastic my destination wedding plan, and we started working together immediately. My couples loved him from the first moment! Because Luigi can conquer the people, with his discreet, relaxed way, he makes comfortable everyone. And from that time the couple feel free to express their own emotions, that Luigi is careful to capture”

“He’s great, professional and nice. His pictures are amazing, he captured the precious moments of our special day, making the whole day even more beautiful and unforgettable. He was part of the family. Thank you!!!!”

“Luigi is the best. He’s studied our natures from the first moment, to create compositions that not only looked at the explosive emotions of a memorable day, but they were focused on our characters.

He managed to make me feel comfortable, though he usually avoids every target, notes the available objects and makes them the emphasis of a perfect photo.

He’s a matchless professional become a loving friend of our happiness. He got excited at every shot too, and immediately we perceive how deeply he loves what he does. Each photo is like a son who educates and then publishes, praying that he knows to stand with his legs and he can convey what he has felt.

He gets excited, so much! He is a good hearted, fast paced soldier, able to take the time despite the light’s conditions not always perfect. The photos are the only thing along with the memories that keep forever. I would choose him so many times, just like my husband. And we only saw the photos preview, ready three days later despite other weddings and events.”

“When mastery and sensitivity combine in an exceptional person, the result is far above the sum of the parts. Our marriage has been captured, shown and immortalized in its deepest soul. Thanks to Luigi, we shine of a radiant beauty that he has made visible to ourselves as well. We met Luigi almost by accident, and we understood that he was perfect for us … an unusual feeling was created immediately, full of common affinities. Thanks to the pre-marriage photo shoot, recommended strongly from us, we have cemented this feeling and the result, the pictures, was beautiful … not just simple snaps but emotions with colors. His power is to tell a story and not stamp the ticket with the classic photo shoot. Our day, our wedding was described thanks to the shoots, the light games from the beginning to the end, and everything magically tied like Abbey Road’s side b. Simply Thank You! Live forever”

“The union between the professional who is and the passion that puts in makes his photos real masterpieces. Ladies and gentlemen here are to you the Master!! For our marriage, he was discreet, never intrusive but still present to immortalize the most important moments.

I would re-choose him immediately.”

“Luigi is more than just a photographer! His fun spirit and passion create positive vibes and joy. So happy to have met him.”

“In quel giorno eravamo talmente pieni di emozioni diverse che ci rendeva difficile afferrare i singoli momenti. Successivamente cercavo di ricordare attimi del matrimonio, ma invano, eravamo circondati da tanta felicità in modo così travolgente che creava una serie di immagini continue impossibili da fissare.

Ma quando abbiamo visto le foto di Luigi , tutto era più chiaro..impressionante, è stato come leggere un libro che tanto ti è piaciuto per la seconda volta, hanno catturato tutto, ogni singola foto rispecchia come eravamo e cosa provavamo in quel momento, abbiamo riso di nuovo, ci siamo commossi di nuovo, sentire l’affetto delle persone presenti, cogliere mille nuovi sguardi e dettagli sfuggiti è stato stupendo, ed è stato Luigi a regalarcelo con la sua forte sensibilità.”

“Cosa dire su Luigi… un professionista eccellente oltre che una persona semplice e amichevole che cerca di realizzare quello che gli sposi vogliono ma che sa essere anche deciso quando ce n’è bisogno e che cattura i momenti più belli e spontanei del giorno più importante. Ci siamo trovati benissimo anche con i tempi (più veloce di noi!). Al prossimo matrimonio lo chiamerò sicuramente”

“Luigi è stato una bellissima scoperta, persona stupenda e Professionalità ai massimi livelli. Scatti bellissimi e mai banali. non immortala solo un immagine ma cattura un emozione”

“Se vuoi delle foto che non siano solo delle belle immagini, ma un racconto ricco di emozioni, allora non hai altra scelta! Luigi è la persona giusta per te! Un vero artista della luce, con un occhio attento ed allenato a cogliere dettagli che non tutti sanno vedere, anzi… Guardare! Ha reso il nostro giorno indimenticabile e speciale anche grazie al suo splendido approccio, gentile e divertente mettendoci pienamente a nostro agio! Per noi ormai uno di famiglia!”

“Trovare le parole giuste non è facile, e non facile descrivere un emozione grande come quella del matrimonio.

Ho iniziato presto, precisamente 10 mesi prima del grande giorno, la mia ricerca del “fotografo perfetto”. Il fotografo perfetto deve avere poche ma essenziali qualità: empatia, passione, creatività ,sensibilita’, umorismo …. ma essenzialmente deve raccontare ciò che hai dentro il cuore …Ed io, da stakanovista di sogni quale sono, ho cercato e cercato per mesi, colui/colei che speravo avesse queste qualità. Tra mille scelgo Luigi. Una scelta studiata, una scelta confermata dopo aver visto i suoi meravigliosi scatti. Ci sentiamo telefonicamente, ci incontriamo, io, mio marito Simone e Luigi, ed il tempo vola chiacchierando della nostra vita, delle nostre passioni e dei sogni che rincorriamo ogni giorno, ma uno di li a poco stava per avverarsi. Luigi ne era felice, era presente con tutto se stesso ed i suoi occhi avevano la luce di chi fa ciò che ama. Perché si posso confermarlo, Luigi ama il suo lavoro. Arriva il grande giorno, pioveva, ero agitata… molto, e lui era lì, tra uno scatto , una battuta una chiacchiera e una semplice frase: “Cri stai tranquilla, la pioggia non ci dà fastidio , e’ tutto bellissimo”.”

“Quando abbiamo deciso di sposarci, mia moglie Cristina (dovrebbe essere la recensione qui sotto!!!!), ha voluto essere la wedding planner di se stessa per curare il nostro matrimonio in ogni piccolo particolare. Sapevo quanto ci tenesse alle foto ma non potevo immaginare che mi avrebbe portato da un fotografo, non con la F maiuscola, ma con tutte le lettere scritte a caratteri cubitali!!! Quando ho visto Luigi per la prima volta ho avuto la sensazione di conoscerlo da sempre… ti accoglie nel suo studio, dentro la sua abitazione (un uomo che ti apre le porte della sua casa è un segnale importante per me), ti mette a tuo agio, ride e scherza, senza farti percepire minimamente l’importanza dell’incontro che si sta svolgendo.

A mente fredda, infatti, mi rendo conto che una coppia di sposi affida tutti i ricordi del giorno più importante della propria vita in mano ad un fotografo che ha decisamente una responsabilità importantissima… fortuna che abbiamo scelto Luigi!

Luigi non è un fotografo come tanti, è un “Artista dell’Obiettivo”, è un “Rocker della messa a fuoco”, è un “FuoriClasse dello zoom”!!! La serenità con cui ha lavorato, il modo di fare le foto, la simpatia e la professionalità che ha messo a nostra disposizione ha contribuito a rendere il nostro matrimonio una giornata perfetta. Ha un colpo d’occhio eccezionale, riesce ad immortalare i momenti più importanti con degli scatti perfetti… tempismo, ambientazione, espressioni dei soggetti… oggi vedo le bozze che ci sta mandando e mi rendo conto che ha carpito tutti i dettagli importanti del nostro giorno più importante! E poi che volete che vi dica… ama il rock, gli animali e, cosa più importante, il suo lavoro!

E, comunque, Luigi mi aveva già convinto dal “Piacere Luigi”!”

“Luigi is an excellent photographer and we could have not wished for anyone better to tell the story of our wedding day.

We got along immediately when we met, he can put people at ease so much to the point we almost forgot we were in front of a camera. His attention to detail is superb, he was able to capture our best moments and our natural expressions throughout the course of the evening.

He was never intrusive, his presence was unnoticeable but he framed all our small special moments. He did his job with great professionalism and attentive eye. When we looked at the final work it was like living again our special day through his pictures, he definitely told our story through his beautiful natural images where words are not needed.

Thank you Luigi.”

On our wedding day Luigi was our shadow, imperceptible and discreet, silent but incredible!

He and his collaborator managed to capture individual moments, pure emotions reported in black and white.
Thank you for the moments you have made us relive by leafing through a simply wonderful album.

So….
I hate being photographed.
I’m never satisfied, I only see flaws. and I also hate posed photos.
the morning of our wedding it was pouring. after 4 months of drought. think about my mood.
so, instead of telling you how extraordinary louis is as a photographer (that’s what the pictures speak for), I want to tell you how patient, nice, helpful he was and how much he managed to put me at ease. to understand exactly what I wanted the look on the day to be.
“Manuela! Just relax and just think about having fun! We’ll take care of the rest”
Listen to it and everything will be great!
an immense and heartfelt thank you,
Manuela and Marco

Strabiliante.Ho avuto la gioia e il piacere di far “raccontare”il mio matrimonio da Luigi, Professionista, Artista.

Credevo fosse quasi impossibile imprimere su carta momenti unici, spontanei del grande giorno. Luigi ha realizzato proprio questo. L’ha fatto con con la gioia negli occhi, perché si vede che ama la sua professione. L’ha fatto con discrezione, senza che ce ne accorgessimo, sorprendendoci proprio nel momento della realizzazione del libro. Il Libro, creato nei minimi dettagli e a mano. Tutto scelto con entusiasmo e cura. Sarò per sempre grata a Luigi, catturatore professionale di momenti ed emozioni fugaci.
Grazie e per sempre grazie Luigi.
