A Wedding is a celebration where two families are brought together to form a brand new one. Sometimes, as in our case, two entirely different cultures are brought together.
Growing up in Italy, I learned to love art from my art teacher grandmother - she taught me how to draw, how to see colors and shades. My grandfather gave me my love for technology. My dad taught me how to build things and figure how stuff worked. My mother taught me English, how to cook... and if you ask her she's not yet done with me.
Lisette got her incredible cooking skills from her grandmother. Another grandmother, an unlikely entrepreneur in Cuba, gave her her determination to get things done. Her father made her strong, her mother empathetic.
We both feel our family connections very strongly, and by family we don't just mean those who are related to us, but also the close friends that in both of our cultures are indeed considered "family."
We have four little ones of our own and we strive to pass those generations' worth of gifts to them.
While we will photograph the details you've carefully chosen, and create amazing portraiture for your walls, at it's core, our photography celebrates two people, two families and their relationships, above all else.
Alessandro and Lisette Di Sciascio

Bonnie Moore - Loved the one with the reflection of her in his eye. What a cool concept. The water splashing behind her great idea. I would have liked to have seen her with her hands up in the air and her eyes closed.
This is a wonderful way to celebrate the birth of your child. To have this to show them later is a very heart warming idea and a great way to remember the love.
admin - Bonnie,
thanks for the kind words. The reflection in his eye idea was all hers. She had seen photos I’d taken up close of eyes which reflected the surroundings and thought it’d be cool if you could see her reflected in the eye
I like your idea in terms of the water splashing behind pose… what you describe would definitely have been beautiful!
