Family Sailing Photoshoot in Puglia

Lisa (American) has raised her two beautiful daughters (half-Italian) here in Italy. They love to sail around Italy, and have even spent summers living on a boat! Her girls are the reason Lisa has stayed in Italy for over a decade and during that time she has embraced everything the country has to offer- the cuisine, the sea and the culture too!

They’re moving to the U.S. in the coming weeks and so before they left, it was important to Lisa to document their life here in Puglia to feature on their walls for years to come. For a family of sailors.. of course, it was a no-brainer to head out to sea for their photoshoot!

You can check out some of what we created in this slideshow below.

Hi, I’m Kirstie

Photographer and Australian expat living her best gelato life

Love of my husband (but mostly of cheese) brought me to Italy in 2020. He was desperate to be back with his Italian family. And honestly, what Aussie girl could pass up the chance to move to the land of pizza and gelato?! (Seeing a food theme here?)

My decade of photography experience was inspired by a trip of a lifetime. My grandparents took me on a trip to Europe when I was a teen, then gifted me an album so I’d never forget it. That album quickly became a staple of family visits and storytime.

When I moved to Italy, I was surprised how rare that type of printed keepsake is for the locals. It’s quite literally a foreign concept - tourists won’t find that type of session here.

It inspired me to recreate an experience for others as deeply meaningful to them as my grandparent’s infamous vacation album has been to me.

So that’s my mission with Classico Portraits: to provide the same timeless centrepieces for families like yours visiting Italy.
