Amalfi Day

03/07/2026

One thing I’ll never forget about that morning is that every car that passed us slowed down and honked. Even though it was still early, people couldn’t help smiling and waving. The bride’s dress turned a quiet morning in Atrani into something everyone wanted to be part of.

Before the Amalfi Coast wakes up, Atrani feels like a different world. The streets are empty, the sea is calm, and the first light slowly reaches the cliffs.

This session started before sunrise, which has always been my favorite time to photograph. Everything is quieter, the light is softer, and the town still belongs to the people who are already awake.

It was also my first time photographing a couple from Japan. We met that morning as complete strangers, but it didn’t stay that way for long. We wandered through my favorite corners of Atrani, shared stories, laughed a lot, and simply enjoyed the walk while creating these images together.

Looking through this gallery now, I don’t just see beautiful portraits. I remember the peaceful streets, the unexpected seagull flying through one of the frames, and two people who trusted me with one of the most important days of their lives.

A few days later they left one of the kindest reviews I’ve ever received. They wrote that I wasn’t just their photographer, but also their local guide, showing them places they would never have discovered on their own and helping them experience the Amalfi Coast like locals.

For me, that’s what these sessions are really about. Of course I want to create beautiful photographs, but I also want every couple to leave with memories of a morning they’ll remember for years.

Thank you for trusting me with your story. I hope our paths cross again one day.

Some mornings in Positano feel almost unreal.

When we started this session with Stephanie & Brian, the town was still asleep. Not just the tourists even the beach clubs hadn’t opened yet, the staff hadn’t arrived, and the waterfront belonged only to us and the sound of the sea.

This is one of the reasons I love sunrise photography on the Amalfi Coast. For a brief moment, Positano returns to itself. Quiet streets, empty beaches, soft light, and a completely different atmosphere from the one most visitors experience later in the day.

A huge thank you to Stephanie & Brian for trusting me with these memories and for waking up before sunrise. And thank you, Positano, for being impossibly beautiful every single morning.

If you’re visiting the Amalfi Coast and thinking about a last-minute sunrise photoshoot, send me a DM. The early alarm is always worth it.

The best hotels have one clear story

Look at the hotels Travel + Leisure chose to mention. Giraffe Manor has giraffes at breakfast. Jade Mountain in St. Lucia has open-air rooms facing the Pitons. Dromoland Castle has 500 acres and a 16th-century castle story. Atlantis The Palm has underwater suites and a giant water park.

You can describe each place in one sentence.

That is not an accident. The strongest hotels know what guests will say when they go home.

On the Amalfi Coast, many places already have that sentence. They just do not always say it clearly enough.

A small apartment in Atrani might be “sleeping inside one of Italy’s tiniest seaside towns.” A room in Ravello might be “waking up above the coast, away from the day-trip crowds.” A stay in Amalfi could be “living a few steps from the cathedral bells and the ferry pier.”

6:47 AM. Eric is questioning every life choice that led him here. Ashley is already at the door.

This is what happens when you book a sunrise shoot in Positano on your just one week in Italy.

You set an alarm that feels illegal, you drink awful hotel coffee, and you walk into a town that for once is completely empty. No queues. No scooters. No “scusi, scusi” elbow dance. Just the bay turning pink and two very awake (eventually) Americans letting me follow them around with a camera.

Ashley and Eric, you were so good. Thanks for trusting some guy on the internet to ruin your sleep schedule for art.

📍 Positano, before the world wakes up.

DMs open if you want to do something equally ill-advised this summer.

As a photographer working on the Amalfi Coast, I get to know the places here really well. Sometimes I know the owners too, and they invite me over to shoot their apartments and villas.
This one is special. “Apartment with terrace with spectacular sea views” in conca di marini. Top 1% of homes on the coast, and the moment you step onto that terrace you understand why. It attracts a certain kind of guest. Romantics. People who notice light. People who travel to feel something.

This time the guest found me herself and booked my Airbnb Experience, and I’m really grateful she did.
Prep is almost nothing for a shoot like this. Put on something you feel good in, pour a cup of coffee, wake up early enough to catch the first colors of the day.
The morning was cloudy. I thought it might be a problem. It wasn’t. The light turned out softer and the colors deeper than anything a studio could give you.
Sometimes the sky knows better than the forecast.

The traffic wardens are back. Starting April 1, the orange-vested crew returns to the most chaotic spots along SS 163 to manage the spring and summer traffic crush.

If you've driven the coast road during peak season, you've seen them — stationed at blind corners in Positano, Praiano, Amalfi, and the Castiglione junction above Ravello, waving cars through one at a time when the road turns into a standoff between tour buses and rental Fiats.

They're not a long-term solution. But for now, they're the only thing keeping the road from turning into a parking lot.

Ferrari just named their latest supercar after our coastline. The Ferrari Amalfi Spider.

After launching the Amalfi coupe last July, Maranello released the convertible version. This is an open-air supercar built specifically for top-down driving, not just a car with the roof cut off.

The fabric roof drops in 13.5 seconds. You can operate it at speeds up to 60 km/h (37 mph), so there's no need to pull over. The five-layer fabric keeps the cabin surprisingly quiet when closed. With the top down, you get 172 liters of trunk space. Close it up and you have 255 liters.

Under the hood sits a 640-horsepower V8 biturbo engine. Zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.3 seconds. Zero to 200 km/h in 9 seconds flat. Top speed over 320 km/h (199 mph). No hybrid system here.

Couple of words about off season in Amalfi

Big features in Forbes and Condé Nast Traveler confirm what locals already know: Amalfi in the off-season is calmer, more personal, and often more enjoyable.
