Matt wanted to propose to his girlfriend, Dani, at sunset, just before dinner. He dreamed of a quiet, intimate place where the moment could be perfect. I suggested Capitoline Hill as the ideal location. Nestled in the heart of Rome, it offers a beautiful terrace with a magnificent view of the city at sunset.
I blended in with the tourists, snapping photos, eagerly waiting for Matt and Dani to arrive. As they walked to the terrace to admire the sunset, the golden hues of the setting sun painted the sky, creating a magical atmosphere.
At the perfect moment, Matt got down on one knee and proposed. It was a scene straight out of a fairy tale. And, of course, I captured the entire enchanting moment.
Look at the incredible photos I took of their special day! 🌅💍❤️
Even the most organized vacations can hold surprises, especially when love is involved. Conor and Aisling had their week in Rome planned down to the minute. But Conor had a secret plan—to propose to Aisling in one of Rome’s most beautiful spots.
Conor reached out to me to capture the moment. With Aisling’s schedule in hand, we picked the perfect spot: the Bridge of Castel Sant’Angelo, conveniently on their way to the Vatican.
On the big day, I waited on the bridge. When Conor and Aisling arrived, Conor stopped her to take some pictures. As she admired the view, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him.
Aisling’s joy-filled “Yes” echoed across the bridge, marking the start of their next adventure together. In that moment, amidst the ancient beauty of Rome, their love story found its perfect beginning
Marcus and his girlfriend, Freja, were enjoying a vacation in Rome with their friends. Marcus had a surprise planned: he wanted to propose to Freja while they wandered around the Colosseum. Together, we chose the perfect spot with a stunning view. As they explored the Colosseum with their friends, Marcus paused with Freja to listen to a lovely song played by a hired violinist. Marcus had arranged for the musician to play a song he had selected. In that magical moment, Marcus asked Freja to marry him, and she joyfully accepted!
Love stories often begin with a moment that takes your breath away—a moment carefully planned and executed to perfection. Such was the case with Marcel and Akanksha’s unforgettable proposal in the heart of Rome.
Marcel reached out to me with a vision: to orchestrate a surprise proposal for his beloved during their weekend getaway in Rome. After discussing various location options, Marcel settled on the serene intimacy of the Capitoline Hill terrace, overlooking the majestic Roman Forum.
In the early morning hours, I arrived at the chosen spot, armed with a heart-shaped balloon to add a touch of romance to the scene. Marcel, meanwhile, had informed Akanksha that they would be embarking on a guided tour, with the rendezvous point set at the Capitoline Hill.
As the couple reached the terrace, marveling at the breathtaking vista of the ancient ruins below, Marcel seized the moment. Casually suggesting they take some photos to capture the beauty of the morning light, he waited for the perfect moment to drop to one knee and profess his love.
The sight of the red heart-shaped balloon swaying gently in the breeze served as a poignant backdrop to Marcel’s heartfelt proposal. Akanksha, caught completely off guard, could scarcely believe what was unfolding before her eyes. With tears of joy glistening in her eyes, she uttered a resounding “yes,” sealing their love amidst the timeless splendor of Rome.
Moments like these remind us of the magic that exists in the world—the magic of love, of serendipity, and of the shared moments that shape our lives forever. It was an honor to play a part in Marcel and Akanksha’s love story, crafting a moment that they will cherish for a lifetime.
As Marcel slipped the ring onto Akanksha’s finger, surrounded by the echoes of ancient history and the promise of a future together, it was a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend time and place.
Here’s to love, laughter, and happily ever afters—may Marcel and Akanksha’s journey be filled with endless joy and countless more beautiful moments together!
I was contacted by a friend of Kevin’s, entrusted with the task of orchestrating Kevin’s proposal in complete secrecy from Raquel. Considering the amount of time they spent together, it was crucial to avoid any suspicion. Thus, we meticulously planned every detail – from the location to the exact spot by the fountain where they would stand, even down to the timing. In the early morning of February, I had the honor of capturing this beautiful moment. As Raquel closed her eyes to make a wish and tossed a coin at Trevi Fountain, Kevin went down on one knee and asked a very important question: ‘Will you marry me?’ 💍 She was completely surprised and with tears in her eyes, she said ‘YES’! 🥰 #Proposal #LoveStory #SheSaidYes”
