Danilo & Sharon Vasic of www.daniloandsharon.com are a husband-and-wife team based in Italy but travelling the world to photograph stunning weddings!

Incredibly, they met at age 7, started dating at 14, have been married for more than 10 years, and have 2 kids.

Their roots are in fashion & advertising, where they were regularly shooting fashion covers for Elle magazine.

These days, they are one of the world's best luxury destination wedding photographers.

Their style is often described as editorial wedding photography, where they clearly step in and help direct a scene to get the most out of it for their clients.

They also teach their workflow, editing, lighting and visual storytelling — and you'll understand why if you take one look at their images.

Stunning does not come close to describing their work.

Take one look at their Instagram feed, and it literally looks like a series of fashion magazine covers. Sure, there are some actual covers from little magazines you may have heard of, like Vogue!

Seriously, take a look at their portfolio, it's to die for!

In this interview, Danilo and Sharon share how they went from €50 weddings to a global luxury photography business with photography pricing starting at €50,000!

Here's some more of what we covered in the interview:

How Danilo and Sharon built a thriving editorial-style wedding brand that’s now booked out a year in advance
Why charging from day one changes everything — your confidence, your standards, and your clients’ respect
How their fashion and advertising roots shaped a high-end wedding style couples around the world now crave
The preparation process that turns luxury clients into co-creators — from mood boards to fashion-inspired lookbooks
How understanding the mindset of high-net-worth clients removes intimidation and builds instant trust
Why investing in your presence — from wardrobe to words — is as critical as investing in your craft
The simple change that transformed their bookings: adding Sharon to sales calls and personalising the connection
The behind-the-scenes system that filters 900 enquiries down to 20 dream weddings a year
How ongoing business and marketing education became their edge — and the real reason behind their €50K bookings
What they learned about growth: don’t outsource your brand until you know it inside-out
Why failing faster became their secret weapon for refining both their studio and education business
And their bold vision for the future of photography — where collaboration replaces competition and studios thrive together

Thank you!

Huge thanks to Danilo and Sharon for being so generous and open in this conversation. Their story — from €50 weddings in Serbia to building a million-euro luxury photography business — is proof that anything’s possible when you treat your craft like a business and never stop evolving.

They’ve built success on their own terms by combining artistry, preparation, and world-class service — not hustle, hype, or shortcuts.

I’d love to hear what resonated most with you — what’s one idea or takeaway you’ll utilise in your own photography business after hearing this episode?

We built our business by giving away everything we knew at each stage. When you burn the ships behind you, you’re forced to move forward. — Danilo & Sharon Vasic

That’s it for me this week; I hope everything is going well for you in life and business!

Thanks for listening—speak soon,
Andrew
