Nadia & Lucas · Val d’Orcia

Sixteen people, a chapel that holds twenty, and a photographer very glad she had packed light. The road in is white gravel and the last kilometre is walked.

One window

The chapel has a single window and no electric light. That sounds like a problem and is in fact a gift: one source, one direction, and everything that matters falls into it. I did not use flash and would not have wanted to.

Work backwards from sunset. Everything else on the day can move; the sun cannot.

Afterwards we drove twenty minutes to dinner and stopped three times on the way, which is what you fly a photographer to Tuscany for.
