AboutLucilla Bellini
Lucilla Bellini is an Italian born (Florence) portrait photographer based in Tenerife, creating fine art portraits for individuals, couples, maternity, and families who want images that feel natural, emotional, and timeless.
Her work is shaped by a cinematic and poetic sensibility, but always rooted in real connection. Each session is designed to capture more than appearance alone — the atmosphere, emotion, and quiet beauty of a moment in your life.
Portrait Photographer in Tenerife
Based in the Canary Islands, Lucilla photographs people in natural light and carefully chosen outdoor locations across Tenerife. The island’s volcanic landscapes, ocean light, wind, and open spaces are not just a backdrop, but part of the feeling and visual identity of each session.
My Approach
She specializes in portrait photography that feels personal and expressive rather than posed. Whether you are planning a maternity photoshoot, a couples session, a family photoshoot, or a more artistic personal portrait, the experience is guided with care so you can feel at ease in front of the camera.
Lucilla’s background in fine art and editorial photography gives her work a distinctive visual language: soft direction, attention to detail, and an instinct for images that feel both refined and honest. Her approach combines creative planning with sensitivity, so that each gallery reflects your story in a way that feels elevated, intimate, and true.
What It Feels Like to Work Together
Before the shoot, she takes time to understand the mood, style, and meaning you want your images to hold. Depending on the session, this can include a pre-consultation, concept development, location suggestions, and wardrobe guidance so the final photographs feel coherent and deeply personal.
For many clients, the experience is just as important as the final images. Lucilla is known for creating a calm, warm atmosphere that helps people feel comfortable, even if it is their first professional photoshoot, and her recent client feedback repeatedly highlights her professionalism, kindness, location guidance, and ability to make the session feel natural.
The result is a collection of portraits that goes beyond documentation. These are images created to hold memory, connection, and beauty over time — photographs you return to not only because of how they look, but because of how they feel.

Lucilla was very professional, but at the same time warm-hearted and uncomplicated. It was our first experience of a professional photo shoot and we felt very comfortable. The photos are beautiful and a great reminder of this special time.

December 17, 2025Our family photo shoot was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Lucilla made us feel relaxed and genuinely welcomed, which is no small feat considering we had an energetic/shy kid in the mix. Her ability to connect with each of us—adults and child alike—created an atmosphere that felt less like a formal session and more like a fun family outing with a very talented friend tagging along. What stood out most was Lucilla's incredible attention to detail. She guided us through poses that felt natural and authentic, offered gentle direction when needed, and encouraged spontaneous moments that perfectly captured our family’s personality. Our son gradually opened up, thanks to her patience and playful energy, and she kept us smiling throughout the entire shoot. The final photos exceeded every expectation. The lighting, colors, and composition were breathtaking, and each image told its own little story. Lucilla managed to capture genuine expressions—real laughter, quiet moments of affection, and those little interactions that make our family unique. Every photo felt like a piece of art, and choosing which ones to frame was honestly the hardest part. Communication was also seamless. Scheduling was easy, instructions were clear, and the gallery was delivered even sooner than we expected. The entire experience felt polished, professional, and heartfelt. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly understands how to capture the beauty of a family, couple, or individual’s genuine connection, look no further—she is the one. We walked away with not just gorgeous photos, but memories from a day that felt truly special. All we can say is that Lucilla is highly, highly recommended.

Lucilla é una professionista ma anche una persona molto empatica che sa metterti a proprio agio (e simpaticissima, che non guasta!!) Ho apprezzato tutto! Dalla selezione location alla disponibilità, per non parlare del risultato finale! Le foto sono stupende e la qualità/prezzo impagabile! Stra-consigliata!

November 11, 2025My partner wanted to propose to me on the Canary Islands and we found Lucilla's website and we were blown away by the amazing portfolio she had. We decided to book a photoshoot she helped us choose q place for the proposal, gave us amazing tips on what to wear, how to pose. We had an amazing time. I highly recommend! Best photoshoot we've ever had! ❤️❤️❤️

Lucilla was kind, so easy to work with, and a true magician at pulling *beautiful* pictures out of two sleepy toddlers for family photos. Would absolutely book again.

June 5, 2025Lucilla was incredible to work with and both extremely well organized and informed. From the beginning, she helped plan appropriate locations for our shoot based on the look we were hoping to achieve. The day of, she made us feel comfortable enough to enjoy the shoot and provided us with guidance when needed. All of this along with a reasonable price and quick turnaround for our photos makes her the best photographer we’ve had the pleasure of working with.

Carlos González
September 21, 2024Un alma artística. Desde que la conocí me pareció una persona muy humana y muy simpática. Podría decir muchas cosas positivas de ella porque es lo que siento desde mi admiración y cariño. Desde el punto de vista profesional es una gran artista que vive actualmente en Tenerife y recorre el mundo con sus proyectos de moda. Es super aplicada en su trabajo y muy humana. Siempre escucha las propuestas, es una persona que inspira el trabajo en equipo, meticulosa y extraordinaria en lo que percibe con las imágenes que capta con su cámara.Ojalá más personas y empresas quieran que tu representes su imagen.

Nous avons fait appel à Lucilla pour une séance photo sur la plage de Camison, et nous ne pourrions pas être plus satisfaits du résultat. Lucilla a su capturer des moments magnifiques à nos yeux. Elle a été très patiente et gentille avec notre bébé. Son professionnalisme, sa créativité et sa capacité à nous mettre à l’aise ont rendu l’expérience agréable. Les photos sont tout simplement superbes et reflètent parfaitement l’ambiance unique de cette journée. Nous recommandons vivement Lucilla à tous ceux qui recherchent une photographe talentueuse et passionnée ! Merci encore ;)

August 24, 2024Lucilla was a dream to work with! Our couples shoot photos came out so beautifully - soft, sweet, and totally natural/as we are in real life. The shoot itself was also a breeze. Lucilla gave us direction and suggestions, which we appreciated since we aren’t the most comfortable in front of the camera, and also stood back/gave encouragement when we started to find our flow! Also so impressed by the pre-shoot process - Lucilla was super responsive via email and gave thoughtful and honest suggestions about locations, lighting during our preferred time of day, etc. Plus we got some great island recommendations as well! Absolutely recommend if you’re looking for a talented photographer and a warm, comfortable process!

December 17, 2023Lucilla was a dream to work with! Flexible and gave great pre-shoot advice, and made us feel comfortable on site. We absolutely adore the end result photos (from a maternity shoot while on our babymoon) and have gotten raving compliments on them. If we’re ever back in the Canary Islands, will absolutely reach out to Lucilla to schedule another shoot!
