Some of the videographers filming on Lake Como today
Lake Como has become one of the most sought-after destination wedding locations in the world, which means the list of studios filming here has grown alongside it. Couples researching who to book often end up with a long list of Instagram accounts and portfolio sites and no easy way to compare them. We wanted to put together something more useful than a generic "best of" list — an honest overview of studios actually working on the lake, including where we fit into that picture ourselves.
We are, obviously, not a neutral party. YASIROV Films is one of the studios on this list. We've tried to write this as plainly and fairly as we can, and we'd rather a couple read this and choose someone else whose style fits them better than book us based on an inflated comparison.
How we chose this list
We focused on studios with a consistent, visible body of work specifically on Lake Como, a track record with international couples (since most Como weddings involve guests and vendors coordinating across time zones and languages), and a public reputation — reviews, repeat vendor relationships, or coverage in wedding publications — that we could actually verify rather than take on faith. This isn't a ranking, and it isn't exhaustive. It's a starting point for research, organized roughly by the kind of visual style each studio is known for.
Studios filming weddings on Lake Como
Thirtyfive Studios
Thirtyfive Studios has built a strong presence among Como's more editorial, high-production wedding films — polished, cinematic work that leans into the drama of the lake's grand villas. Couples drawn to a bigger, more stylized visual language tend to gravitate here.
The Lake Como
As the name suggests, this studio has built its identity specifically around lake weddings, with a portfolio concentrated on the villas and waterfront ceremonies that define the region. Worth a look for couples who want a studio whose entire focus is this specific location.
VIDEOMAG STUDIO
VIDEOMAG STUDIO works across a range of formats and styles, with experience filming both traditional wedding coverage and more experimental short-form edits. A reasonable option for couples who want flexibility in how their final film is structured and delivered.
AG Studio Videography
AG Studio Videography has a body of work that leans toward warm, natural coverage of Italian weddings, with Como as one of several Italian regions they film in regularly. Their portfolio suggests comfort working across different venue types, from lakefront villas to countryside estates.
ManiSol Wedding
ManiSol Wedding is a husband-and-wife team, similar in structure to our own studio, filming weddings across Italy including Como. Their work has a personal, relationship-driven quality that comes through in how they talk about their process, which is worth noting for couples who care about who's actually behind the camera.
Daniele Donati Films
Daniele Donati Films is known for a more classic, romantic visual style with strong technical polish, and has built a reputation filming luxury weddings across Italy. Couples who want a traditional, elegant film with high production value often end up considering this studio.
YASIROV Films
That brings us to ourselves. We're a two-person studio, Anton and Sabina, based in Como and filming documentary-style wedding films — observational, natural light, minimal staging, with an emphasis on capturing the day as it actually happened rather than directing it. We work primarily with international couples and have been recognized among Italy's top filmmakers by WEVSY, alongside features in Wezoree, La Lista, and Style Me Pretty. We're not trying to be everything to everyone, and our style won't be the right fit for every couple — which is exactly why a list like this exists.
How to choose a wedding videographer for Lake Como
Start with style, not reputation. Watch full wedding films, not just highlight reels, from at least two or three studios you're considering. A thirty-second reel can make almost any style look good; a full film shows you how a studio handles pacing, quiet moments, and the parts of a wedding day that aren't naturally dramatic.
Ask about experience with international weddings specifically. Como draws couples and guests from all over the world, and a studio that regularly works across languages, time zones, and destination-wedding logistics will generally make the planning process smoother than one used to local, single-language weddings.
Read reviews carefully, and look for specifics. A review that mentions how a videographer handled a delayed ceremony, communicated during planning, or worked around difficult weather tells you more than a review that just says "amazing, highly recommend."
Meet or speak with the actual person or team who will film your wedding, not just a sales contact. For boutique studios especially, the working relationship with the videographer matters as much as the final product — you'll be spending your wedding day with this person nearby.
Finally, trust your gut on style fit over brand recognition. The most-followed studio on Instagram isn't automatically the right one for your wedding. A documentary approach, an editorial approach, a classic-romantic approach — these produce genuinely different films, and the "best" studio is the one whose style matches how you actually want your day remembered.
Frequently asked questions
Is this list ranked in order of quality?
No. The studios are presented in no particular order, and this isn't a ranking — it's an overview meant to help with research, organized loosely by visual style.
Why is YASIROV Films included in your own list?
Because leaving ourselves off would make this less useful, not more honest. We'd rather be transparent about where we fit among other studios filming on the lake than pretend we're writing from outside the market.
How often is this list updated?
We revisit it periodically as studios' portfolios evolve and new names build a presence on the lake. If you know of a studio doing strong work on Como that isn't listed here, we're always glad to hear about it.
Should I book a videographer and photographer as a package?
Some studios and photographers offer combined packages, and some couples prefer working with separate specialists for each. Both approaches work well — the choice usually comes down to whether you've found a photographer and videographer whose individual styles you love, or a paired team whose combined work you've seen and liked together.
