Wedding photographer in Bologna specializing in elegant, discreet reportage. Bartolo captures spontaneous emotions and offers extras like cinematic video, drone and photobooth.
I’m Bartolo Sicari, a professional wedding photographer based in Bologna, specialized in telling weddings through an elegant and discreet reportage style. My photography is born from attention to genuine emotions: I prefer to capture glances, caresses and unposed moments rather than forced poses. This approach allows me to give couples images that are not only beautiful but also faithful to the memory of that day. My experience and continuous training — I have been an ANFM member since 2015 — have helped me develop the technical and narrative skills that turn every wedding into a unique story. I work in Bologna but follow couples throughout Italy: whenever possible I study the light and the venue with a site visit so that on the wedding day I arrive prepared and can focus solely on capturing emotions. My approach is simple and human: first and foremost I listen to your story. Together we build a bespoke photography service that respects the timing of your event and your wish to enjoy the day. During the wedding day my team and I operate with discretion — almost invisible — so as not to interrupt the natural flow of moments. When needed, we lightly organise the classic group photos or posed shots at calm times such as the cocktail hour, so we don’t take away precious time from your emotions. For couples who want an even richer narrative, I collaborate with trusted videomakers to produce cinematic wedding films: footage that highlights the atmosphere of the day without altering the photographic reportage. I also offer additional services commonly requested by couples, such as polaroid/photobooth prints for fun moments during the reception and aerial drone footage for memorable panoramic images. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Bologna who puts your emotions at the centre, with professionalism, creativity and discretion, I would be happy to meet you. Let’s have a coffee together: tell me your story and we’ll create the perfect photography service to relive your day every time you look at the photos.
