We nipped off to Portofino over the weekend to try to do some swimsuit shots, but were beaten by the weather. Must remember to check tides, wind direction etc… before heading off to locations next to the sea.

So instead we wandered around the town and spotted more than a few guys with cameras and long lenses, so realised there must be “someone” in town.

We stopped by at “Il Delfino” for a very early dinner, or late lunch and spotted some more of these guys hanging around.

Wasn’t till I’d snapped a picture and by mistake included the subjects of their attention that we realised who it was …. The son of the President of Italy, Pier Silvio Berlusconi and his wife.

Portofino in Film

It’s an amazing place and we were very lucky to get such a lovely boat taxi back. With all that beautiful scenery and the amazing yachts we thought we should put this together. Not the first time I’ve used the Magic Bullet tools either, they’re great and easy to use to get the look you’re after. go check them out http://www.redgiantsoftware.com. The sunny look seemed to go very well with the great music from Wolfmother, In the Morning (even though this was all shot in the evening, maybe we’ll re do it on the next visit).
