A Lake Como proposal at Villa del Balbianello, early afternoon, on the terrace above the water.
Lily and Jerry. A stone balustrade, a statue with its back to the lake, red geraniums in the urn. One knee on the flagstones, a ring box opening, and her hands went straight to her face.
Then the loggia. A kiss between the ivy columns, the mountains of Bellagio across the water.
Then we left by boat. Balbianello shrinking in the wake, arms in the air. And from above: two people stretched out on the sun deck of a wooden boat, dark green water all around.
On Lake Como, the boat and the drone aren’t extras. They’re how you see the real scale of this place, and how small and private one moment can feel inside it.
Swipe to the end.
