Asking the Big question by the Rialto bridge
A romantic Rialto proposal in Venice perfectly organized to take place in front of the Rialto bridge. One of the oldest and most iconic bridges that spans over the Grand Canal in Venice. Candidly photographed by our hidden photographer which was standing nearby mingling in among the bystanders. A touching moment followed by great Joy and Happiness! Shared with friends and family which we are also present. And by the people nearby as witnesses of this beautiful moment!
Then after catching breath and enjoying the moment and emotions. We continued with an Venice photographer session. First taking some nice portrait pictures in the environs around the Rialto bridge. Standing on the staircase and reaching the other side of the bridge to capture some nice snapshots of it while standing on the wooden docks.
After the big question, we were off to a nice walk towards Saint Mark’s square. Taking nice portraits in the in between alleyways which had a nice Venetian feel! Starting with Piazza San Marco. Shooting underneath the ancient porticos. Then moving over to the typical gondola service docks framing the lagoon in the background. Including some final portrait pictures by the Ponte dei Sospiri bridge in the background!
