We flew out to Puglia a week before our wedding in order to settle in, relax, and prepare for all our international guests to arrive. One pair of those guests are my good friends from California, who we had planned to meet in Monopoli.

Stars aligned and we were able to coordinate a mini-photoshoot with a photographer who was hosting her own workshop in Italy that week - meaning that we would be the models for the day. It was so much fun for us, and great practice for the weekend ahead.

It was also our first time visiting Monopoli! It is such a charming seaside town, and getting to spend the afternoon after the shoot with great company was the cherry on top.

We are super happy with these photos and can't wait to stroll the streets of Monopoli again soon!
