They actually got married in Monaco, back in november. Lina was already very successful before she got engaged with Mirko.

I was just amazed no one got hurt moving a 3,000 pound enlarger into the darkroom!
She seems to have a nice nature - I messaged her once on Instagram to reply to something she was writing on. She came back with a nice response. She seems to have good knowledge of what she’s doing, which is not the case with all of those on social media who have only come to film recently. It’s great that people like her are promoting film photography in an engaging way and relevant for those (certainly) younger than myself. It can only benefit all of us who enjoy this art. Good for her - she’s even managed to fall in love with someone who shares her passion.
Many years ago I had to dismantle a very large enlarger. Memory of its brand name I can't remember. Weight can easily be dealt with by using leverage and an extra set of hands. As I remember dealing with tension coils and flat spiral springs in retractable spools were the things that one usually got hurt from if one didn't totally respect their potential power if or when released.
Here an interview with her by Ilford.
