How it began

Our Story

Four chapters — from a gallery in Milan to a terrace above the lake.

2018

The First Glance

A gallery opening, a shared cigarette on the balcony, and a conversation that didn’t end until dawn.

2020

Midnight Swims

Salt, moonlight, and a boat that wouldn’t start. We learned we love the same kind of trouble.

2023

A Rooftop Promise

A tiny apartment with a view of the Duomo, a record that skips, and a kitchen where we learned to make a life.

2025

She Said Yes

On a terrace above the lake, with a ring in a pocket and the easiest yes we’ve ever said.
