About the photographer

Ciao, I'M SIMONA

A little about me

I’m Simona Land, born and raised in Italy, now living a life shaped by Christ, art, and love stories that feel like home. My business name comes from my husband’s last name — a little piece of him woven into everything I create.

I studied fine arts in Italy and earned my BFA in film in Oklahoma, where I met my equally creative husband. Photography became the natural blend of my life experiences and everything I love: emotion, composition, storytelling, and connection.

I have a heart that lives somewhere between Lake Como and the American South, drawn to long dinners under string lights, meaningful details, and the kind of love that feels both grounded and artful.

Whether your backdrop is a villa in Italy or a garden in Georgia, my approach is rooted in intentionality and care. I’ll gently guide you and pose with purpose, drawing out the moments that feel both honest and joyful.

This work has always called to me — I would be honored to preserve your story, it deserves to be told beautifully.

BEHIND the LENS

When I'm not editing photos or updating this website, I like to ask my husband to sit and watch tv with me, usually a period piece (current fav, Call the Midwife) or try to keep my lovely chiweenie off my keyboard. I also love to craft, usually coloring books, to relax!

I have been a big traveller since I was a teen. I learned English and a bit of French and Spanish staying with host families, and making friends from all my travels! I definitely have at least a friend in each continent.

"I CANNOT say  ENOUGH GOOD THINGS about SIMONA!"

She is the definition of professionalism and friendliness and warmth, and she is so talented to top it off! We did our wedding in Italy, but are from Savannah, so we got the best of both worlds in that she captured engagement pictures for us in Savannah and shot our wedding in Italy. It was so awesome to be able to ask her any questions that came up (even non-photography related ones about Italy, honestly) along the way, and she was nothing but happy to help. [...]
