Among the countless enchanted lands that Italy offers to the astonished eyes of many visitors each year, there are some with a discreet charm, little visited and, perhaps precisely for this reason, incredibly fascinating. One of these lands is Umbria. Willingly leaving the primacy for tourism to other regions, Umbria remains genuine, spontaneous, and true to itself, standing out for the authenticity of its places and traditions. Far from the clamor of mass tourism, Umbria preserves its bucolic aura intact, remaining a precious treasure to be discovered, first and foremost, with the heart.
Observed from above, through aerial drone shots, the landscapes of this wonderful land appear like a hand-painted picture, with miles of unspoiled nature revealing enchanting scenery where time flows slowly, marked only by the rhythm of nature and the subtle song of birds. Medieval villages perched on rocky spurs, like silent sentinels, watch over the valleys, telling stories of knights and ladies, epic battles, and overwhelming loves. Fields of sunflowers sway in the wind like a golden sea, while lush vineyards climb the hills, caressed by the sun’s rays.
The air is filled with the heady scent of wildflowers. Every village, hill and stone whispers a legend, tells a story, which today intertwines with the one of Zynara and Herman, who chose to celebrate their love at I Borghi dell’Eremo, one of the most exclusive and romantic wedding locations in the entire area. Their happy-ending story culminated on a fresh summer day, under the sun-kissed sky of Umbria, where the horizon is tinged with lavender hues and the wind runs through the olive groves.

Why Choose a Videographer for Your Wedding
The wedding day is always a whirlwind of emotions, a vortex of unrepeatable moments that fly by too quickly. It is easy, amidst preparations, greetings, and wild dancing, to lose sight of the magic of each single instant. This is where the importance of the wedding videographer comes into play: entrusting a professional means relying on attentive eyes and ears to capture every nuance, every smile, every tear of joy. Choosing the right videographer, however, is not a decision to be taken lightly: it is not just about capturing the day, but about creating an emotional story, a real film that allows you to relive the emotions of that day whenever you desire.
In choosing the videographer, a series of artistic, economic, and personal evaluations must be made. First of all, it is important to look at their previous work to understand if their style fits your tastes and expectations: every professional has their unique way of telling stories, and you must ensure that their way of working aligns with your vision of the wedding video you want to create. Besides the style, it is important to evaluate the videographer’s experience. A professional with several weddings under their belt will know how to handle unforeseen events, capture the most significant moments, and produce a high-quality final product.
Another aspect not to be underestimated is the chemistry between you and the chosen professional. It is crucial that there is a good feeling between you, that you feel comfortable in front of their camera. On your wedding day, you should be free to live the emotions without fear of being judged, and a good videographer will make you feel at ease, becoming almost invisible to your eyes. A discreet, sensitive, and engaged approach is precisely what distinguishes us at Thirtyfive Studios.
