Testimonials

“Andrea Matone studios was found by my fiancé to arrive to the island of Capri and incognito capture his surprise proposal. Andrea & Andrea could not have captured and created more of a dream for our family and future memories than they did. Arriving all the way from Rome to the Island, they scoped out the best vantage to capture the proposal in advance and were waiting at the appointed place: and both managed to capture not only the most touching photos, but the most magical video (with music, polished editing and all). The photos and video were such high quality that we were blown away.

They both guided us though taking photos and getting video footage including showing photos of poses (as not everyone is expert, haha) and just were so kind, gracious and professional. The edited photos are beyond stunning and I cannot thank them enough for being the wonderful professionals they are.”

How will we meet with the photographer on the day?

After organizing all the details by email in advance, we will meet at a predetermined location. First, we exchange a secret signal to confirm recognition without revealing the surprise. Then, we follow the planned schedule, usually guiding you to the exact spot for the session. In the case of a gondola ride, the process may vary slightly, as the photographer is presented as part of a couple’s photography experience. Once everything is in place, the special moment unfolds naturally, while the photographer captures it discreetly from a distance, ensuring that your partner remains unaware throughout the process.

Is the moment candidly photographed?

Yes we try to our best to maintain the moment’s spontaneity by photographing from a distance to keep the moment a surprise and to maintain intimacy.

Can we have some pictures right away?

Yes. By including the 2 week Expedient Image Delivery option at the moment of booking. You will be able to receive up to 5 photos right then and there, shot as is. And all the photos including post production processing within 2 weeks’ time if not earlier. Where the normally delivery times without selecting this option are approx 1 month. More on the post processing options.

When is the best time for taking pictures?

For a clear view of the moment, the expressions, the details and the location; the central daytime hours are best. As there is enough daylight to zoom into the frame to capture all the details. Evening session are more difficult to achieve due to progressive lowering of light. So the ambience atmosphere can really be nice, but losing the details of the moment. The ideal would be to shoot the proposal 1-2 hrs before sunset and then if one wants to achieve more artistic images.

When and How many pictures will I receive?

How Many? As many pictures as we are able to shoot. Filtering out doubles, almost identical, undesired out of focus, bad framing or body positions, overly underexposed or overexposed, unplanned eyes closed. If conditions permit, a daytime session can produce up to 60 photos/hour, delivered digitally with post processing. Evening session produce a lower picture count due to the more time consuming light conditions. Approximately 50 photos/hour.
When? Up to 1 month depending on the current first in first out workflow. On average approx. 1 month. If you wish to receive everything as fast as possible than we suggest including a 2 week or earlier delivery by selecting Expedient Image delivery at the moment of booking.

What happens in case of rain?
