It’s not every day that couples get featured on British Vogue but it was a lucky day for the Maltese couple Marie Claire Portelli and Julian Friggeri when their stunning wedding shoot got featured on British Vogue Magazine.

The two decided to do their pre-wedding photoshoot under the direction of the Malta based photographer, Anisa Alsabri.

It just so happens that Anisa was featured on Vogue and Marie Claire’s and Julian’s pre wedding shot was the once chosen to be printed on the iconic magazine.

In the black and white shot, the soon to be bride can be seen wearing a white Oscar de le Renta white dress while Julian wears a Bortex tailored tuxedo as they lean over a classic car.

“When I heard the news I couldn’t believe it! To be on Vogue is a dream but to be there with my fiancé is even more special!”, Marie Claire wrote.

“I’m so glad to be part of it. Meet me in British Vogue”, Anisa continued.

They were featured of the September 2023 issue where the cover was graced by the iconic 90’s supermodels, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington.
