Simonelli Studio

As a wedding planner, I worked alongside Marco for a client in Denver and found his work to be superb - so much so that when it came to finding a photographer for my own wedding in Italy, I knew exactly who I wanted to capture our wedding. When planning a destination wedding, you want someone not only matches your style but who is also local and knows the venue - with Marco, we found that! He captured some of our most treasured moments (even when it meant getting tangled with some cacti) and we would recommend him to any couples looking for a photographer in Tuscany!

Marco did an amazing job capturing our destination wedding!
Our photos were not only gorgeous, but also truly captured the beauty of the location, the personalities of our wedding party and the magic of the day. He kept us smiling and laughing the entire time, putting everyone at ease.
The most amazing part of the day had to be the second line parade we did at the end of the ceremony to surprise our guests and family. While fantastic fun for us and our guests, it is extremely challenging to capture a bride and groom leading a parade of a jazz band and 100 guests marching to When the Saints Go Marching In! Marco captured it all beautifully.
For the reception, Marco suggested a photo booth and it was a huge hit. We got so many great shots with our guests that we printed and sent them out with our Christmas cards.
Thank you so much for capturing our special day so perfectly!

I had to have brochures made up for my business and needed professional photos done. Marco was on time, easy to work with and made the shoot a lot of fun. The photos came out beautifully and I couldn't be happier. I have also seen his wedding photos are they are stunning and very creative and capture the joy, love and nuances of the couple and guests brilliantly.

Marco is an excellent photographer. He did my high school senior photos and another project a few years later. He is very professional and kind and did a great job making me feel comfortable during my sessions. His style of photography is beautiful and unique in the best way. Marco is very detail-oriented and timely on his editing. I had two very good experiences with him and would highly recommend his service!

My husband and I couldn't be more happy about our whole experience with Marco and his team! Marco is like family to us. In addition to my wedding, he also shot my sister's wedding a few years back and I know we will continue to use him in the future as our family continues to grow! He is so talented and truly has an eye for the perfect "shot". Marco is so efficient - you aren't standing around waiting for him to get everyone in place to take a picture - it doesn't take him any time to envision, get everyone in place, shoot, and move on! He is so professional, fun, and energetic! The images he created from our wedding day are absolutely breathtaking and stunning - they brought tears to our eyes remembering all of those special moments he captured. I would recommend Marco & his team to anyone whether you are considering pictures for your engagement, wedding, maternity/newborn, or family - you will NOT be disappointed.

It is seriously outstanding what Marco can capture with his camera. He is so talented. From our wedding photos, engagement photos and a boudoir shoot, Marco did not disappoint. All of our images are one of kind and capture every emotion and exact feeling of each moment. We will cherish these images for the rest of our lives- and will continue to book him in hopes that he will drive from Tulsa to shoot our future moments in Kansas City =) Thank you Marco!

I used Marco for my engagement photos as well as my wedding photos and I was absolutely blown away by the finished products. From the time my husband and I met with Marco and chatting with him so he could get a feel of our personalities and what we wanted out of the photo shoots, to the time we actually began shooting it was pleasant! The shoots were fun and didn't feel posey or forced, and he had great suggestions for attire and locations. The pictures exceeded our expectations and 6 years later we still get lots of compliments on our photos. Marco was friendly, innovative and very easy and fun to work with. He is worth every penny and the quality of his product is beyond amazing....you won't be disappointed!

Marco is a true artist! Our engagement and wedding photos were absolutely beautiful and unique!

I have done several sessions with Marco, from Boudoir, to pregnancy, to newborn pictures of my baby. He is beyond talented, and almost as good of a photographer as he is a person. Marco helped me to feel comfortable, and listened to what I wanted, then added his creative edge! He is nothing short of professional, and I can confidently say you will never have to search for another photographer after working with Marco!

Words cannot begin to describe how amazing Marco (and his work) is. When choosing a photographer for our wedding, it was important to me that the day be captured like a story board. He did exactly that and so much more. Not only is he one of the funniest Italians I have ever met (which helped keep me cool and relaxed on the big day), but he sees things that many photographers may not catch. He was a true joy to be around and made everyone feel comfortable, which in turn made the photographs amazing. After the wedding when we were going through the photos, I literally cried because he took me back on a journey of our day in a way that I didn't get to see at the time. Yes, the group family photos are great, but it was the in between moments that brought tears to my eyes. The shot of my adorable 4 year old nephew as he held my hand, looking up at me while my mom zipped my dress, my husband looking over his shoulder laughing at some joke my father was telling right before the ceremony.......those are the moments a bride cherishes forever. Those are the moments Marco captures. For that, I am forever grateful. Grazie mille!

Marco was a lifesaver!. He understood our needs and delivered on his promise of excellence. Marco was efficient, considerate and highly professional. Steve Gerkin, Chaine des Rotisseurs

If you are looking for a photographer for any occasion, Marco Simonelli is a perfect choice. He has taken photos of our children and our family for at least 10 years. He has an eye to capture the perfect moments in any event. You will
Not be disappointed with his work! Such a professional artist ans loves his job!!

So thankful for Marco! Every time I look at my wedding photos I can remember the details of our special day! He is so easy to be around, so kind, and so so so talented!

I used Marco for my senior photos. Whether you're looking for family portraits, senior photos, or weddings, Marco is the guy for you! He captured just what I wanted in each photo, making them classic and timeless. I loved working with him because he is flexible, fun, and is willing to go anywhere and do anything for the perfect photo. I appreciate him so much and loved working with him!

Marco took the time to know our daughter and her personality before the picture session. His pictures were creative in how they brought out her unique personality. Marco captured moments in time that are priceless to us. Anyone can take pictures, takes an artist to capture personality.
