Great photos and great conversation

VasylMarkus, Mar 2026
I scheduled an early morning photo shoot with Yulia. (Pro-tip: early mornings mean that you avoid crowds and get photos without other tourists in the background.) Yulia was punctual, and we had a brief conversation about what kinds of locations I prefer. I choose the streets by Piazza di Spagna ending up at the park above Piazza del Popolo. It was perfect because the photo shoot ended very near the Villa Borghese which I wanted to visit. Yulia is very personable and a good conversationalist, so our time passed quickly and pleasantly. She also provided excellent instructions on posing. The route she chose was scenic and had lots of good backgrounds for photos. The real test, however, is in the photos. I received a link to the photo album a few days after the shoot and I am very pleased with the results. It's a great souvenir from my trip to Rome and the album is so much better than a bunch of selfies. The experience was worth it and I can highly recommend Yulia.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hi Vasyl, It’s always such a pleasure working with someone who is a great conversationalist—the time really does fly by when the shoot feels easy and natural. I’m very glad we were able to create a personalized experience that perfectly matched what you were looking for and included such beautiful spots along the way. I’m also happy you enjoyed the final photos and that they became a special memory from your time in Rome. Thank you again for your recommendation—it truly means a lot! ✨

Yulia was amazing!!!

Hi Brittany, Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy I had the chance to take photos for your son to celebrate such an important milestone—his graduation. It was a pleasure working with you both, and I’m glad he felt comfortable during the shoot. Wishing him all the best in this exciting new chapter!

Amazing!

Simran_G, Feb 2026
Yulia was amazing to work with in Rome! She was super friendly, gave great pose direction, and knew exactly how to capture the best angles and locations. The photos turned out stunning. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a memorable and high-quality photoshoot in Rome.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hi Simran, Thank you so much! I’m really happy to hear that you were satisfied with the experience and the final photos 🤍 I truly had a wonderful time with you as well, and I’d be more than happy to meet again in Rome — even just for a cup of coffee and great company ☕

Absolutely Phenomenal Experience with Yulia

Cesar_R, Feb 2026
We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with our photographer, Yulia. From start to finish, she was an absolute delight. She is a truly talented photographer, and her work speaks for itself. She gave us clear, creative direction that made the photos beautiful, candid, and were so flattering. She paid attention to such small details, like how our hands were positioned and how my jeans were slightly bunched up. Yulia's personality made the experience even better. She was so warm, welcoming, and friendly, which immediately put us at ease. Initially, the weather was slightly rainy. Instead of letting it affect the session, she was so positive, reassuring, and flexible and we ended up with the most beautiful photos! We've worked with many other photographers before, and Yulia is truly one of the best we've had. We are beyond happy with the photos. Thank you, Yulia!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Ciao Cesar, Thank you so much for these incredibly kind words 🤍 It truly means a lot to me. I was so happy to help make your trip to Italy a little more special — and I’m glad the weather didn’t ruin our plans at all. Sometimes those unexpected moments bring the most beautiful results. I know that posing in front of someone you’ve just met can be a real challenge, so I always try to get to know you first and let you get to know me as well. That connection makes all the difference and allows me to highlight your individuality in a natural, authentic way. Thank you again for trusting me and for such a thoughtful review. I’m beyond happy that you love the photos!

Yulia did an amazing job...

Cassandra_N, Jan 2026
Yulia did an amazing job taking couple’s pictures for my boyfriend and I on our recent trip to Rome. She was very friendly, helped us with posing, and made us feel comfortable while having a vision of what we wanted from the session. I would highly recommend this to anyone coming to Rome looking for a special way to document their trip!

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Hi Cassie, Thank you so much for your kind words 🤍 It was especially meaningful for me to be the first photographer for you as a couple. I truly hope this experience inspires you to continue documenting your journey together with many more photo sessions in the future. Thank you for trusting me to capture such a special moment of your trip to Rome — I’m so happy you felt comfortable and enjoyed the process ✨

Picture perfect photos with top tier care!

Callie_O, Sep 2025
Yulia was AMAZING!!! The time, attention, and care she gave to us during the whole process was top tier. Before starting pictures she had clear communication where to meet, what type of pictures we were expecting, and even asked if we had certain sides we would like photographed. During photos she always made sure we were comfortable and gave us poses to perfect the picture. Following photos she gave us great recommendations for restaurants, gelato, etc. I can’t say enough great things about her or the experience. If you want nice photos while you’re in Italy, you need to book Yulia, I highly recommend!

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Hi Callie, They say in Rome all roads lead to love — but sometimes, they also lead to perfect photos and a little gelato along the way. 😉 Thank you for letting me be part of your story — what a joy it was! :)

Absolutely do this.

Megan_W, Aug 2025

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Hi Megan, They say memories fade, but a photograph is a little love letter we get to keep forever. 💌 I’m so happy you now have so many to hold onto — what a joy it was to capture you in Rome :)

Gorgeous Family Photos

KENDRA_Z, Aug 2025
I could not ask for more beautiful photos than the ones we received from Yulia. She knows her craft and was very good at guiding us so that we got all the right shots. Yulia made us feel comfortable and was great to work with! I highly recommend her if you are looking for some epic family shots.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Hi Kendra, I’m so glad I got to meet you and your son — what a wonderful family you are! It was such fun capturing these moments together, and I’m truly happy we crossed paths.

Sweet and professional!!!

WENDY_C, Aug 2025
It was a pleasure meeting and interacting with Yulia. She was already at the meeting place waiting for us. My daughter is super shy, and she was able to feel comfortable and worked great with Yulia. I had a peak at the pictures, they are great! I cannot wait to see the final results. I kept to myself and let them work together after seeing their interactions. She was able to make my daughter feel safe and relaxed. Highly recommended!

Excellent Photographer

Jeanette_B, Jul 2025
I can’t say enough good things about Yulia. She had great communication when booking, she was very friendly during our shoot and knew exactly how to pose us and work quickly with our two small children. My family and I take pictures often and she has by far been one of my favorite photographers to work with. Her pictures were beautiful and more than I could have dreamed of. Not to mention her quick turnaround on getting us our pictures. Book her and you won’t regret it. I’ll cherish these memories forever. Thank you again, Yulia!!!

Mother -Daughter Duo in Roma

Julie_T, Jun 2025
My daughter and I are traveling through Italy for a few weeks, so I decided to book a photo shoot to commentate our time in Rome. Let me tell you, believe the reviews about Yulia. Not only is she is an outstanding photographer, but a true artist behind the lens. Her attention to lighting and detail is suburb. She was so helpful with posing suggestions, effortlessly guiding us through the session. She found that golden light (my favorite!) at every location. The photos are amazing… do yourself a favor and book with Yulia. I will be a repeat customer next trip to Rome. She’s the best. ❤️

Highly Recommend – A Truly Special Experience! Photography in Rome!

Lourdes_Z, Jun 2025

Her knowledge of the area and ability to navigate around the crowds made the session smooth and enjoyable. Yulia has a true gift for making you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I would highly recommend this unique and memorable experience to commemorate your trip—you’ll walk away with beautiful photos and even better memories!

Great Photographer, Wonderful Experience

Carrie_S, Apr 2025
Absolutely incredible experience! While we were out of our comfort zone doing a photoshoot, from the moment we met our photographer, she instantly put us at ease. Yulia is incredibly talented, professional, and has a natural gift for making people feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her energy was warm and friendly, and she somehow turned our nervous laughter into genuine smiles and beautiful moments. She guided us effortlessly, gave just the right amount of direction, and kept things light and fun. By the end, we felt like we were just enjoying a stroll together while she captured it all perfectly. And the final photos? Absolutely stunning—more than we ever hoped for. We’ll treasure these memories forever. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you, Yulia!!

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you so much, Caroline! Your words truly touched me. It was such a joy to walk around with you two, watching those nervous giggles turn into real smiles and sweet moments. I’m so happy you felt comfortable and enjoyed the experience — that means the world to me. You were both wonderful, and I’m really glad the photos captured that. And I truly hope you’ll always remember the taste of that gelato from Giolitti — and the fun we had ordering it together! Hope our paths cross again one day!

Perfect!

Yulia was absolutely fantastic. My wife had some ideas of what she wanted our pictures to look like. Yulia really worked with us to deliver on what we wanted. Plus she was so knowledgeable about all the locations and had so many ideas for poses and pictures. Yulia is the perfect photographer for anyone wanting a photo shoot in Rome.

Response from Host, Apr 2025
