Giardini di Piazza Venezia
A truly roman proposal in Rome! This engagement photoshoot felt truly Roman because the setting carried many elements that belong unmistakably to ancient Rome. The portico stood on original stone columns, still upright after centuries. The floor showed visible signs of age, with worn patterns that revealed long use. Around the courtyard, several architectural fragments and carved artifacts created a direct connection to the city’s archaeological past. Even the proportions of the arches and the simple geometry of the space reflected classical design.
In this beautiful quiet courtyard setting of Giardini di Piazza Venezia, beneath a Roman-style portico. The proposal in Rome took place! The meeting with the photographer was made at a distance making the scene develop spontaneously. The photographer observed from a respectful distance, while the couple walked slowly toward the shaded structure. The late-afternoon light reached only part of the stone floor. Yet the arches framed the moment with simple balance.
Engagement photos with Prosecco Sparkling wine!
After the proposal, the photographer and the newly engaged couple took some engagement photos in around the vicinity. Then exited the garden and continued toward Piazza del Campidoglio. Taking pictures along the way. With each turn revealing a different Roman backdrop. Once in the main square we took photos on top of scenic terrace overlooking the roman skyline from above. After shooting some really nice engagement pics there. We celebrated with a toast of prosecco sparkling wine!
Soon afterward, we moved behind the Piazza del Campidoglio toward the terraces overlooking the Roman Forum. As the light began to fade. Columns, arches, and layers of ruins emerged as soft silhouettes.
The Blue hour
As blue hour arrived, the sky deepened into a cool shade. Street lights switched on with gentle timing. And we continued to take nice picture portraits by the railing overlooking the ancient roman ruins. The mix of skylight and city glow created a calm atmosphere. The picture frames captured a different side of the ancient city. Shifting from the structured architecture of the Campidoglio square. To the vast archaeological layers of the Forum. The shoot wrapped just as the first lights appeared across the Forum, marking a soft and memorable ending!
