A small studio,a long view.
We make wedding and portrait photographs that still feel true in thirty years: honest, elegant, and never in a hurry.
Nº 01 Our approach
Fewer instructions,better light
Aster & Lune began with a simple idea: the best wedding photographs happen when people forget about the camera. So we plan carefully, then let the day lead.
We work in a pair, one close and one wide, and we edit every gallery by hand in the studio. The result reads like a magazine feature about your day, not a contact sheet.

Nº 02 What we believe
Three principles
- Nº 01
Light first
We build every timeline around where the sun will be. It is the single biggest difference to how your photographs feel.
- Nº 02
Present, not loud
Guidance when it helps, distance when it matters. Your guests should remember the day, not the photographers.
- Nº 03
Made to last
A restrained, timeless grade and an album made to be handled for decades, not a trend that dates in a season.
Nº 03 Home
Based on Lake Garda,at home on any shore.
Nº 04 The process
From first note to finished album
